Purr-haps you'd like a new way to get your claws on science questions sent in by kids like you. That's litter-ally my favorite thing.

Today Cosmo and I tackle a question from Hillary's 1st graders in Washington: What makes snow sparkle?

You'll hear:

  • How snowflakes are hexagonal ice crystals
  • About white light and rainbow colors
  • What reflection and refraction mean

Resources you can use:

  • Check out Von Walden's research near the North Pole and South Pole
  • Learn about atmospheric science

As always, submit burning questions at askdruniverse.wsu.edu. Who knows where your questions will take us next.
