Float through the center of hundreds of real snowflakes, each one a unique wonder. The hexagonal shape of a snowflake reflects the arrangement of its atoms, ten million times smaller on the molecular level. Oxygen atoms are heavier than Hydrogen atoms, making the molecules join together the exact same way every time, self-organizing hexagons of H20.
