    Glass is a non-crystalline amorphous solid that is typically transparent and has widespread practical, technological, and decorative uses in objects and structures. It has been an essential material for millennia, with the earliest glass artifacts dating back to around 3500 BC. Glass is formed through the rapid cooling of molten material which prevents crystal formation, resulting in a non-crystalline structure that is highly resistant to changes in temperature and pressure. Modern glass is typically a mixture of silicates with other oxides that are heated to form a viscous liquid and then cooled to a rigid condition.

    Original Description:
