High-Tech Snowflakes: A Biochemist’s Homegrown Snow
Snowflakes are stunning examples of natural beauty and testaments to the exacting laws of physics.
Thankfully, almost anyone can grow snowflakes with a soda bottle, some string, a block of dry ice and a little luck. But reproducing the same crystalline growth, time after time after time, is a challenge typically reserved for scientists with a laboratory full of expensive equipment.
Watch the video here, Time-Lapse Ice Crystal Growth.
