Virtual crash.

And we have some extraordinary images from what chemical ice nucleation can do.

It is profound.

When you have an endothermic reaction, you know what an exothermic reaction is.

You have this massive energy release, the splitting of an atom being the epitome of that.

But an endothermic reaction is profound in many ways as well.

So we have images of, for example, hundreds of waterfowl frozen solid to the surface of a lake.

How does that happen?

Tucker, you've seen the massive baseball and softball-sized hail falling everywhere, right?

Yes.

So much so that insurance companies are canceling any hail coverage now because it's increased so profoundly.

That's chemical ice nucleation.

The extreme form, if your listeners searched Lake Michigan ice balls, they can see the shores of Lake Michigan coated with 75-pound, perfectly spherical ice balls.

They don't fall that big from the sky.

They form that way in the ocean because they're chemically nucleating over the Great Lakes constantly.

That's how they pile up these massive amounts of snow in Erie and Buffalo.

And they make sensationalized headlines.

You can literally throw a rock to no snow.

But they only show the four feet or five feet of snow in Erie and Buffalo and sensationalize.

Look how much snow, snow, snow there is while we're...
