Bending light showing off refraction! Send our meteorologist Candace Monacelli your pictures doing this experiments at home! She will feature future meteorologists on my Facebook page daily!

WXMI — In our science experiment today, we look at a disappearing coin trick, which really is no trick at all. It illustrates density and refraction. Some things are more dense (or heavier) than ...

In this experiment, you can teach your kids about refraction which is the bending of light. When light moves through different, see-through (transparent) materials, it bends!

Meteorologist Ray Petelin has a simple experiment that shows this in action. Light lets us see things, ... Reflection and refraction are what we are going to focus on today using these beakers.

In a mind-bending, and light-bending, discovery, scientists have produced a fun-house-like warping of light that defies existing laws of physics. For centuries, simple equations (taught every year ...

Scientists have created a new class of laser beam that appears to violate long-held laws of light physics. Known as “spacetime wave packets,” these lasers follow different rules of refraction ...

This article was originally published with the title “ Experiment on the Refraction and Dispersion of Light ” in SA Supplements Vol. 29 No. 754supp (June 1890), p. 12050 doi:10.1038 ...

That key experiment was finally performed about 100 years later by Thomas Young, who managed to create light that was monochromatic enough to actually put the idea to the test.
