nope, its like water in a closed soda bottle, some evaporates until the air is saturated, then it condenses, that dries the air and more water has to evaporate making an endless cycle which in fact a little endothermic.

Can the spouting be classed as perpetual motion? After all, what would be supplying the energy?

The speed of light is only constant in a vacuum of space, not in matter. Especially in superfluids.

I thought the speed of light was constant, which is why special relativity exists?

Actually rentetsu, you nailed it.

oops sorry. It's also deadly because it's very cold. It's also very useful for finding the theories of Zero Point Energy

click view all comments and you'll see the comment that I was responding to.

I understand the zero viscosity. But what I can't understand is the fact that it slows down the speed of light down to a very slow speed.
Anyway a superfluid is a fluid that can flow at anytime with no resistance to flow/ no viscosity, slow motion and the speed of light down very slow speeds.
Now at the same time, it's also a state of matter that is just between a fluid and gas,meaning that there is also a supersolid, whic has a medium viscosity. Am I right?
btw, cool video

I expect many comments about how wrong I am, but basically superfluids have no viscosity, which means no resistance to flow. This somehow makes the fluid creep up the sides of it's container and drip down the sides. In this case, it's made a fountain. A self propelled and thus infinitely spouting fountain.

Where does the speed of light enter in this? lol |
