    Since the pitch was allowed to start dripping in 1930, only nine drops have fallen. It was calculated in the 1980s that the pitch in the experiment has a viscosity approximately 100 billion (10 11) times that of water. [5] The eighth drop fell on 28 November 2000, and the ninth drop fell on 17 April 2014. [6] Another experiment was started by a ...

Thus began his now famous pitch drop experiment, which, against all the odds, has been carefully preserved by UQ Physics to this day. [6] [7] [8]
