But now researchers are making strides toward tracking them down, according to research presented this week at an American Chemical Society conference — and better understanding the experimental Nazi tech.

Researchers at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) are hard at work tracing some of the cubes’ origins. Oddly, even the researchers working on the project aren’t sure how the lab got its hands on some.

Some of the historical data they’re working off is anecdotal, PNNL researcher Brittany Robertson said in a press release. But the team thinks…
