Managed to do something very odd last night and need some help to work out if anyone knows what went on
Thirsty boy, went and got myself some fancy lemonade, and stuck it in the freezer to chill. Forgot about it for a while, but got it out before it had gone icy at all - no frozen liquid
But when I started drinking the top layer of the drink was … thick? Like the bubbles had firmed up, so they were still fizzy but also sort of solid. It was totally bizarre and delightful, pretty great taste sensation - the bubbles sort of lingered in your mouth like a popping sweet
So what gives! What did I do and how do I repeat it
You had it at the freezing point, but due to the fixed volume it hadn’t been able to freeze. As you opened it the volume changed and it was able to freeze under the new open container as you agitated the suspension.
If you’d left it the bottle may have exploded under the pressure of the freezing fluid.
Also, as it is a suspension it’ll have had some different freezing properties, compared to a pure liquid freezing.
But relative to the zero point in space in the interstellar space medium, 10m plus the distance it’d travel under the rotation of the earth, in space, so 30km/s, so assuming a 3s throw time, 90km.
I had a bottle of Sprite from an ice cream van at Download festival once and it was like this. wondered how / how I could repeat the trick for nearly 20 years and now the secret has finally been revealed
