If you aren't the type to watch a fireworks display in the sky, perhaps you might find an enjoyable alternative in Bose-Einstein condensates. A miniature fireworks display has been found to be produced by these ultracold atoms as researchers switched the magnetic field's direction in order to produce density ripples that created these firework-like jet emissions.

hey you kids!!!
And now I see people trampling each other in panic to get away, those who got trampled down getting second degree burns in addition and the military reassuring everybody, that's it's really necessary and totally safe. Who cares about burns or blisters, they don't last long anyway.
Sometimes I wonder about the scientists who develope those things...
