Es ging darum, zu beweisen, das Pech eine sehr zähe Flüssigkeit ist. Das #Experiment ist immernich unverändert aufgebaut, leider hat noch nie jemand das Fallen eines Tropfens live gesehen. Der 9. und bisher letzte gefallene Tropfen ist gefallen, als die Webcam ausgefallen war.

And here a video about Geim's experiment that was awarded by the #IgNobelPrize in 2020!

Happy birthday to the co-inventor of graphene, Andre Geim.
Geim and his co-laureate Konstantin Novoselov often used Fridays to carry out quirky experiments they didn't have the time to do during their research projects. One of these Fridays in 2004 they invented graphene.
