HOWTO grow your own snowflakes

<img decoding=”async” loading=”lazy” class=”alignright size-medium wp-image-441” title=”snowflake” src=”uploads/2010/12/snowflake-300x258.jpgThis fun HOWTO from Caltech shows you how to grow your own snowflakes at home with a coke bottle, a couple of styrofoam cups, some dry ice, and a few other common household items.

I find the effect of electric fields on growing ice crystals particularly fascinating.

Happy holidays!
