We've all played with soap bubbles when we were children. We've either watched them slowly fade away as they floated or popped them just for fun. But even now, years later, we still find soap bubbles as satisfying and fascinating as they were when we were children. Scientists, physicists, and mathematicians would probably say the same. Some scientists have recently been looking into extending the lifespan of soap bubbles, and they have made "everlasting bubbles." Of course, these are not really everlasting, but they last up to 465 days, which is, I think, a really long time for a bubble. The secret to the long life of the bubble? Glycerol.
