I was watching a show called "Discoveries this week" and there was this segment about a new liquid that was discovered.
This liquid was oxygen rich, or some kind of super fluid or something.
Anyway, they showed a mouse being placed in this liquid, and it was able to breath in the water, due to somce property of this new liquid.
Anyone know of what I am talking about, and what this liquid is called? |

Hm, guess we're a long way off from Sphere.

| Didn't they use this in the movie, The Abyss so that Ed Harris can descend down to depth of unimaginable pressure and see little green jelly fish? |

| May as well put this here. Last night I was watching a new two hour show on Discovery called "Before the Dinosaurs". The effects were pretty good, but there really wasn't a lot in the way of informative content. At one point they're talking about some of the first plant eating reptiles, and they have a shot of the inside of the animal's stomach with the plant material being churned about along with a bunch of rocks that the animals pick up and swallow to help grind up the plant material. These rocks, they said, are called gastropods. They didn't say gastroliths. Maybe these were French dinosaurs. |
