Researchers learned to make rain

Experiments have shown that an electric charge can change the size of water droplets and cause them to “explode”.

Scientists learned to make rain. They did this by charging the clouds with electricity, writes The Guardian.

The discovery was made by Giles Harrison of the University of Reading and his colleagues at the University of Bath. They chase the fogs on the Somerset Levels, send drone to drone and fire a charge.

So it is known that when a positive or negative charge is emitted, the fog forms more water droplets.

“The electric charge can slow down evaporation or even – and this always surprises me – cause the droplets to explode because the electrical force acting on them exceeds the surface tension that holds them, Harrison said.

It is noted that such findings could be put to good use in dry regions of the world, such as the Middle East and North Africa, as a means of encouraging clouds to produce rain.

“Cloud droplets are larger than fog droplets, so they are more likely to collide, and we think that adding an electrical charge to the cloud may help the droplets stick together and become heavier. ,” the scientists concluded.

Remember that scientists from Stockholm University found dangerous chemicals in rainwater collected in different regions of the world. We are talking about perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS)
