Did You Know?

Fog is just a lot of tiny water drops!

How It Works

Warm air holds water. When it cools, it makes drops.

Where You See It

You see it on cold drinks or in clouds.

What condensation Does

It helps make rain in clouds.

It makes dew on grass in the morn.

It can make fog when it's cool.

It helps plants get water from air.

It is part of the water cycle.

It makes clouds in the sky.

More About condensation

Condensation is a big part of how water moves. It helps water go from the sky to the ground. When warm air goes up, it cools down. This makes water drops that fall as rain.

We see condensation every day. It helps plants grow by giving them water. It also makes the air feel fresh after rain.

In the future, we can learn more about how it works. Scientists study it to help with weather. This helps us know when it will rain or be sunny.
