We use glass every day and here are 10 interesting facts to better educate you

1. Glass is Made from Sand - To produce glass, sand is mixed with lime and soda ash then heated to extremely high temperatures. The liquid mixture cools back down and the result is glass.

2. Adding Minerals to Glass Changes its Color - For example, adding nickel oxide to the sand, lime, and soda ash mix produces violet glass.

3. Glass Can Be Formed by Lightning - Because of the high temperatures, glass can naturally form when sand is struck by lightning.

4. When Glass Breaks, the Cracks Move at 3000mph - That’s 5 times faster than the average airplane, which travels at 575mph!

5. Glass Windows Were Invented in the 17th Century - Before that, people made windows out of flattened animal horn.

6. Glass is Not a Solid - When cooled, glass forms an “amorphous solid” that allows molecules within the glass to continue moving around.

7. The “Portland Vase” is One of the Most Valuable Glass Art Pieces in the World - Experts estimate that the Portland Vase was made sometime between AD 5 and AD 25 in Rome. The Vase is currently in the British Museum, where it has been for over 200 years.

8. Volcanic Lava Can Turn into Glass - Obsidian, a type of natural glass, can form when hot lava cools quickly after being expelled from a volcano.

9. Glass is 100% Recyclable - Glass can be recycled endlessly without losing any quality or purity.

10. Glass Can Take 1 Million Years to Decompose - Durable and resilient, glass is one of the longest lasting man-made materials.

In ancient times water was used for mirrors

The first forms of mirrors appeared in ancient times when they would simply use a pool of dark water, or a dark container filled with water. This only changed in around 6000 BC when polished glass began to be used.

Which country showers most often?

I`m sure this will surprise you, and will even make you eager to know where your country ranks when it comes to showering. According to the study by GROHE, research found that over 90% of Mexicans shower daily, compared to around 70% of Americans. Australia was the second best showering nation, followed by the UK, USA, France, Germany, Russia and China. The same study found that only 25% of Chinese males shower daily.

There are mirrors on the moon

A formation of mirrors and lasers on the moon, as well as a telescope down on earth, are used to measure the distance to the moon. This distance changes because of the moon’s elliptical orbit around the Earth, so it is important that such a facility exists.
