Achieving results in the scientific world takes patience, but Pitch Drop Experiment It has become a legend that pushes the boundaries of patience.

This experiment, known as the Pitch Drop Experiment, was designed to prove that pitch is a slow-flowing liquid. for almost a century progress.

The Pitch Drop Experiment was first initiated at the University of Queensland in 1927.

In 1927, Professor Thomas Parnell This experiment, initiated with the aim of demonstrating the mysterious nature of pitch, attempts to prove that pitch is a very slow-flowing liquid.

Although pitch may appear hard and brittle at room temperature, that is actually the case I want to prove that it is a very slow flowing liquid Parnell sets up an experimental setup by filling hot pitch into a funnel and allowing it to drip through the narrow opening at the bottom of the funnel.

So the wait begins and the first drop falls after 8 years! You heard that right: 8 whole years!

If it’s the second drop, it’s even more 9 years later is falling.

Unfortunately, the man behind the experiment is Professor Thomas Parnell. before you see the third drop He closes his eyes to life.

The tar drips so slowly that the eighth drop did not arrive until 2000. The ninth decline occurred in 2014 is falling.

This experiment, which is still ongoing, is currently being broadcast live by the University of Queensland. It can be monitored 24/7.
