Researchers have created an ultracold gas that has the startling property of bursting outward in a preferred direction when released.

Also, the research team leader said their data suggests the possibility that the gas is exhibiting a never-before-seen kind of superfluidity — a property in which matter at extremely low-temperatures behaves in unusual ways
