It’s always fun to watch experiments involving space and all the science behind how it works. The International Space Station recently shared a video on Instagram showing how water shapes itself into a sphere in the microgravity of space.
This video takes viewers through the process of how surface tension causes water balloons to bounce off each other in space. It also shows how they can blend with each other and even hold a bubble in them. It can also hold more water if blown in carefully. The video was fun to watch and the experiment was educational and insightful for many on the internet.
It comes with detailed instructions on how surface tension affects water in space, and how microgravity affects it. The title begins, “In space, we have a unique view of fluids, and we take advantage of this in our space station science experiments.”
It has amassed over 290,000 likes since it was posted on Instagram two days ago. Many people also came to the comments section to express their appreciation for the video and the science behind it.
“Man…I love surface tension,” commented one Instagram user. “You guys had so much fun on it,” joked another, followed by a couple of laughing emojis. A third admitted, “It’s one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen.”
