Zero-G Water Bubbles
Astronaut Don Pettit narrates some of his experiments with air and water droplets in microgravity in this video. The lack of body forces and buoyancy in microgravity means that surface Keep reading
Superhydrophobic Carbon Nanotubes
Carbon nanotubes form a superhydrophobic (super water repellent) surface that interacts with water droplets in interesting ways. The droplet is unable to wet the surface and thus the bounces along. Keep reading
Rain Drops in Puddles
As those of us in Texas get drenched by Tropical Storm Hermine, it’s worth taking a moment to enjoy the beauty of each rain drop hitting a puddle.
Bouncing into a Pool
Here is another take on what happens when a drop of water falls into a larger pool.
Liquid Umbrella
Droplet collisions, usually with water or milk, are popular with photographers for their artistic value. As stunning as these still images are, high-speed video makes the effect even better. Photo Keep reading
