The Little Shop of Physics team is making more episodes of a series we called Flash Science—quick, simple experiments that anyone can do—with a twist: We’ll do them in the studio, and then we’ll join some folks at a distance to see how it works out in the world. In this installment, we see how to make things vanish by using some knowledge of light refraction—first in the studio, and then at home with Elizabeth and Abigail.
