“Qark-gluon-plasma” is the most perfect liquid known to man, and it can only get better. When most people think of liquids, they automatically think of the most famous liquid on planet earth water.  Even though water may keep all human beings alive it may be as far from perfect as we are.  See quark-gluon-plasma is nothing like water at all. It is more like a warm honey type of liquid.  Quark-gluon-plasma isn’t that easy to explain though.  In fact it is so complicated that one of the ways to explain it is through the complicated though highly famous “String Theory”. Quark-gluon-plasma can only be made by heavy-ion collusion, so yes it is a little bit more complex than our precious H2O.

I think that it is pretty cool that we have discovered a liquid that basically destroys everything that many great scientists said that liquids can’t do, and it has.  Any time you do something that people say you can’t do, you can’t help but feel proud of yourself, so I grant quark-gluon-plasma the permission to rejoice that it is able to break down barriers. It’s also pretty cool to think that we called something perfect and we are still finding ways to improve it. That alone gives us great hope that we can find cures to diseases that we have thought for the longest time were incurable.  As long as we have scientists that are committed to their studies then we can always have hope for the future of improvement.
