What are the two properties of snowflakes?

Snowflakes are symmetrical, meaning they have a balanced and harmonious shape. They also exhibit fractal geometry, with intricate patterns repeating at different scales within the snowflake structure.


Why do snowflakes stick together?

Snowflakes stick together due to a process called "riming." When two snowflakes come into contact, supercooled droplets in the air freeze onto their surfaces, forming a bond between them. This causes them to stick together and form larger snowflakes or snowflakes clusters.


Where could one find snowflakes falling in the winter time?

Snowflakes falling in the wintertime could be seen anywhere except of course the tropical locations. To truly see snowflakes, an individual is required to have special gear.


What tools did Snowflakes Bentley use to collect snowflakes as they fell?

Wilson "Snowflake" Bentley used a variety of tools to collect snowflakes, including a specially designed camera and a microscope. He crafted a device to catch snowflakes on glass slides, allowing him to study their intricate structures. Bentley also used a bellows camera to photograph the snowflakes quickly before they melted, capturing their unique patterns in stunning detail. His meticulous methods helped him become the first person to capture the beauty of individual snowflakes on film.


What is interesting stuff about snowflakes?

One interesting thing is that no two snowflakes are alike. i didn't believe this, but one day I could see individual snowflakes, and each one is slightly different. Also, when you see big clumps of snow falling in a snowstorm, that is multiple snowflakes clumped together, not just one huge snowflake. All snowflakes actually have exactly six points on them.
