...Right now, we’re trying to understand what is going on fundamentally,” said Ristenpart. “This is a very counterintuitive mechanism taking place. There’s other situations as well, like sometimes a smaller daughter droplet is emitted...

An awkward couple hooks up on a couch and a droplet of water falls from a faucet first forward and then backward. This convoluted series of events is intended to signify the singer’s retrospection, but instead just comes off as confusing...
...results of that observation. An electron, for example, which exhibits behaviors associated with the opposing concepts of particles or waves, will become one or the other depending on which you look for. Finally, his suggested model of the atom's nucleus as having surface tension (like a water droplet) provided a key development towards releasing nuclear energy...

Then Zeus transfers each precious droplet to a nearby sheet of nylon, moistens a designated spot and pivots back to the glass plates to find the next sample on its list. When Zeus is done, the nylon sheet will be spotted with a grid of about 1,000 droplets, forming what researchers call a microarray. Once the machine has created a few dozen of these arrays, they will be rolled up, inserted into glass tubes and doused with radioactive dye and genetic material from a range of human tissue types--from normal, healthy cells to diseased cells representing breast, prostate...
