Science and fun combine in this cool clip showing the wonder of Bucky Balls.

These tiny magnetic balls have the potential to become anything you want, from a simple cube to a rocket ship. I found myself mesmerized watching the hands manipulate the beads, effortlessly transforming them from one shape to the next.

The high-tech space age music only adds to the appeal of this hypnotic video.

Now I’ve just got one question. Where do I find myself a set of these tiny hematite spheres? Of course if I had my own, I may not get anything done, but they look like a whole lot of fun!
