Update: 2025-03-17
Description
Purr-haps you'd like a new way to get your claws on science questions sent in by kids like you. That's litter-ally my favorite thing.
Today Cosmo and I tackle a question from Hillary's 1st graders in Washington: What makes snow sparkle?
You'll hear:
- How snowflakes are hexagonal ice crystals
- About white light and rainbow colors
- What reflection and refraction mean
Resources you can use:
- Check out Von Walden's research near the North Pole and South Pole
- Learn about atmospheric science
As always, submit burning questions at askdruniverse.wsu.edu. Who knows where your questions will take us next.
