About this audiobook

The water you drink every day shatters some of the most well-known laws of physics. Starting from the ice cube in your glass, this book takes you on a journey into quantum mechanics, the secrets of the universe’s fundamental constants, and the question of why life is possible at all.

Inspired by the clearest yet most profound tradition of popular science writing, this book contains no formulas and no memorization—only curiosity and real science. The hidden secrets within the water molecule, why ice floats, why hot water can freeze faster, and the quantum dance of protons are explained in a way that has never been more accessible.

For those who enjoy Feynman-style popular science, for anyone curious about physics and chemistry, and for those who never stop asking “why.”

About the author

He was trained as a geophysics engineer and spent years working in the world of software. But for him, these were only tools—ways to feed a single question within: How is it possible?

That question has never left him since childhood. While writing code and suddenly looking up at the sky, when a memory from his university years comes to mind, or even when staring at a glass of water—always the same question: How is it possible?

His profession changed, his interests expanded, and time passed. But that curiosity never faded. This Is Impossible was born from that relentless curiosity, fixated on something as simple as a glass of water.

He still hasn’t fully understood the flow of time—but he is determined to spend his life trying to understand it.
