The building blocks of life on Earth may have been fueled by tiny sparks hopping between water droplets.

In a nutshell Water droplets create “microlightning” when they split, producing electrical discharges without any external ...

Study discovered that tiny electrical sparks, called microlightning, form when water droplets collide. These can create ...

Forget the dramatic lightning strike – life may have started with countless tiny sparks from crashing water droplets!

Now MIT scientists have taken high-speed videos of droplets splashing into a deep pool, to track how the fluid evolves, above and below the water line, frame by millisecond frame. Their work could ...
