I was not expecting this....

Wringing out Water on the ISS - for Science!

Quote
What happens when you take a soaking wet washcloth in zero gravity and try to squeeze out all the water? Probably not what you’d expect. Hint: it has to do with surface tension. And it’s totally trippy.

To find out for sure, Canadian astronaut Chris Hadfield conducts an experiment aboard the International Space Station. The process of getting the washcloth wet is entertaining enough, but the actual outcome is a bizarro sight to see


Believe in Yourself
Because the rest of us think you're an idiot.
