Now that most have finished washing the clothes.. here is a interesting question, ever wondered what would happen if Wring a Wet Towel in Space.

Enjoy the video before reading the explanation. Even better if you can guess the answer

PS: What a brilliant way to teach kids about science.
 
The inner child in me just loved the way the mic was just floating in front of him the whole time, like he had an invisible third arm keeping it in place.

Perhaps he did have an inivisible third arm, he may be an alien, sorry inner child has just been drinking fully leaded coke and eating original blue smarties.

I would never have guessed, that surface tension in space would give that water coated effect.
