Honey I shrunk the particles!
The University of Melbourne's Matt Faria needed an accessible way to test nanoparticle crystal formation in zero-gravity. So he skydived in the name of science.
Skydiving for science
A group of scientists have skydived to show that low gravity affects crystal growth in nanoparticles, telling us more about designing new materials.
