Science Friday - Cornstarch Goo Edition

Cornstarch Goo is awesome. If you have never experimented with this stuff, you should. And if you have some kiddos at home, you definitely should! Tonight. If not sooner. All you need to do is mix some cornstarch with water until you get the consistency of pancake batter. (You could even get crafty and throw in some green food coloring for St. Patrick's Day.) The video below was featured on NPR's Science Friday (the real Science Friday, not my cheap rip off). I love how scientists just have this burning desire to explain things. Everything. Including Cornstarch Goo. Ahhh scientists - gotta love 'em.
