Once Upon a Time in Kamchatka:
A Journey in Search of a New State of Matter
Quasicrystals are exotic materials that have symmetries that were once thought to be impossible for matter. The first known examples were synthesized in the laboratory 30 years ago, but could nature have beaten us to the punch? The search to answer this question took more than a dozen years and has resulted in one of the strangest scientific stories you are ever likely to hear.
