In a recent study, scientists concluded that an exotic form of matter that existed in the very early universe probably flows just like water.

Throughout history, people in many places have thought of water as sacred or as having existed almost since the beginning of creation. The matter known as quark-gluon plasma is thought to be a hot soup of elementary particles that formed just a few microseconds after the Big Bang, and it is believed to have been everywhere in the universe at the beginning.
