The maximum viscosity of motor oil could be beyond human comprehension!

Anyone care to share a comment:

The last paragraph of the article begins with the sentence "What was the point of all this?". And then the author rambles on without ever explaining how his article relates to modern engine lubrication. Oh, and it's listed as News on the website.
 
"A material this viscous flows so slowly that the timeframe for any measurable movement exceeds the age of the Earth."

So... We don't have to worry about Mt. Rushmore running down the side of the mountain anytime soon. :rolleyes:
 
Summary: The value of viscosity was calculated as a theoretical limit of viscosity based on estimated pressures of magma under the earth.

And that's applicable to BITOG how? Because the photo image and OP's statement implies this is about motor oil. ( I have updated the title so folks aren't duped.)

LOCKED.
