Ten Science Experiments That Changed The World
History is full of experiments that alter our understanding of the world or advance medicine. Here are 10 of our favorites.

Could Reversing Global Warming Start An Ice Age?
When people talk about "the Ice Age," they generally mean the most recent one, but Earth has experienced them off and on for the last 600 million years. Are we on the brink of a new ice age?

Is The Moon Made Of Cheese? Take Our Quiz!
The moon has a prominent place in popular culture, but there's a lot you might not know about Earth's little orbiting friend. Why doesn't it have soil? Why is its gravity so important?

How Tall Can a Tree Grow?
For Jack and his beanstalk, the sky was the limit, but nature's giants hit a point at which they can't grow any taller. What prevents lofty trees like sequoias from soaring any higher?

How Perfume Works
We once emptied the scent pods of male musk deer into a bottle of fragrance and doused it on, feeling like a million bucks. How has perfume changed since then?
