Ice may seem pretty simple in our everyday experience, but it actually comes in at least 20 different forms. Scientists at the University of Nevada Las Vegas (UNLV) have now discovered a new type of ice that may be found deep in the Earth’s mantle or on distant watery planets.

It doesn’t get much better than getting together with a bunch of buddies in one of Clark County’s 99 sportsbooks to absorb the March Madness hoops fest on big-screen LED televisions.

Nearly 15 years after the discovery of fast radio bursts (FRBs), the origin of the millisecond-long, deep-space cosmic explosions remains a mystery. That may soon change, thanks to the work of an international team of scientists which tracked hundreds of the bursts from five different sources and found clues in FRB polarization patterns that may reveal their origin.

Most people experience conversations and see images in their minds, though the mechanics have proven difficult to nail down.

There are at least 20 solid forms of ice known to us. Recently, UNLV scientists have discovered a new form of ice, redefining the properties of water at high pressures.

Findings could have implications for our understanding of distant, water-rich planets.
