what is a snowflake or to use its more technical name a snow crystal a snow crystal forms up in the clouds when water vapor meets little specks of dust or pollen this forms its tiny hexagonal heart the tips stick out and are rough this attracts water molecules and then more water molecules and then more these form the branches of our snowflake each one takes a very slightly different route meaning no two snowflakes are quite the same each snowflake is a microcosm of the laws of physics gravity makes it fall electromagnetism dictates its shape and you've
got symmetry when you look at a snowflake you can read its history its own unique Story the experiences it encounters shape it into what it is just like us really
