Frozen Anti-freeze

Mace, with all due respect... you can't change the melting/freezing point by changing the temperature..

Water freezes and melts at 32* f (0*c)

That melting point/freezing point can be altered by changes in Pressure and temp.

Hmm, maybe we should look at using some of this... (if'n youre really bored...)

"
Supercooling occurs when a liquid is cooled below its equilibrium freezing temperature. For example, water can sometimes be cooled as much as a few tens of degrees below 0°C without freezing. This phenomenon is important in cryobiology. See also What is 'unfreezable water'?"

Ahh, there are still some sharp ones out there!!!

Unless the crew enjoys temperatures below freezing, the water will never freeze.

lol

I misspoke, no you cannot change the melting/frezing point with just a temp change.

But super cooling is cool (to be cheesy).. It is amazing at the temp variations and what can control the "freezing point"
