Why ice skating is a miracle of physics

Most animals slip on the ice, but put a pair of skates on, and you can control your motion on the ice like it's child's play.

The unusual physics of ice is at fault.

Why ice skating is a miracle of physics
While ice itself is slick, slippery, and difficult to navigate across under most circumstances, skaters easily glide across the ice.

I think we can accomplish so much more if we swap #moral and #physics conundrums. Find an engineer and present them with the trolley problem. Find a philosopher and ask them if a plane can take off from a conveyor belt.

The simplest explanation for ultra-high-energy cosmic rays

The highest-energy cosmic rays are too high in energy.... for bare protons.

But if they're actually heavier ions instead, the simplest explanation is just plain iron-ic.

The simplest explanation for ultra-high-energy cosmic rays
The highest-energy particles could be a sign of new, unexpected physics. But the simplest, most mundane explanation is particularly iron-ic.
