What makes a water droplet hang on so beautifully onto a plant without falling off immediately? If I were to hang on for dear life with my arms, they would probably give up on a few minutes and I'd crash down. I'm sure there is a lot of physics like surface tension, cohesion, adhesion etc that go into making this possible for a water droplet, but it is still a wonder! And to look carefully and notice that the droplet is a lens that inverts images seen through it takes this mix of science and wonder to the next level!
