text: The short story is that glass is a supercooled liquid, meaning that it is rigid and static but does not change molecularly between melting and solidification into a desired shape.
text: Part of the reason is that glass is a supercooled viscous substance that was vitrified — a massive change in physical properties in which a first-order phase transition was avoided (unlike the standard solid/liquid/gas state of matter transitions).
text: After looking at bottom-heavy medieval windows, some observers claimed that glass is a supercooled liquid because it's solid, but is still flowing.
text: Some people claim that glass is actually a supercooled liquid because there is no first order phase transition as it cools.
