Crystal snowflake soared in the sky
Friends are flying nearby, it's not scary in the clouds,
One she is a snowflake, and millions are snow,
And from the height of heaven, a swift run,
The flight is pleasant in the sky, but soon on the ground,
They will turn into snowdrifts for the joy of the kids! (N. Lifanova)
Dear readers! Take a break from worries, household chores, fuss for a while and see how beautiful it is around! Winter is a wonderful time of the year, a unique creation of nature.
During the winter, a huge amount of snow falls. Every year, in accordance with the average indicators, about a septillion snowflakes fall on the Earth in the form of precipitation. What is a septillion? Septillion denotes a number containing 24 zeros after one: there are 350 million snowflakes in one cubic meter of snow, and 10 to the 24th power all over the Earth. The weight of the snowflake itself is only about a milligram, rarely 23. However, by the end of winter, the mass of snow cover northern hemisphere planet reaches 13,500 billion tons.
Due to the low density, snowflakes fall to the ground slowly - at a speed of about 0.9 km / h - this is less than one kilometer per hour. Snowflakes form a snow cover that reflects up to 90% of sunlight into space.
1. Scientists have proved that there are no absolutely identical snowflakes.
All snowflakes are unique and created in nature in a single copy.
The first successful photograph of a snowflake under a microscope was taken in 1885. The merit belongs to the perseverance and patience of the American farmer Wilson Bentley.
It took him 46 years of trial and error for this shot. In total, Bentley owns more than 5,000 unique shots. The statement that there are no two identical snowflakes was originally based on his work.
“Under the microscope, I realized that snowflakes are wonders of nature; and I felt sad that no one sees this beauty, ”Bentley admitted in 1925.
Snowflake
(Konstantin Balmont)
Light fluffy,
snowflake white,
What a pure
How brave!
Dear stormy
Easy to carry
Not in the sky azure,
Asking for the ground.
Azure miraculous
She left
Myself into the unknown
The country has fallen.
In the rays of shining
Slides, skillful,
Among the melting flakes
Preserved white.
Under the blowing wind
Trembling, uplifting,
On him, cherishing,
Light swings.
his swing
She is comforted
With his blizzards
Spinning wildly.
But here it ends
The road is long
touches the earth,
Crystal star.
lies fluffy,
Snowflake is bold.
What a pure
What white.
2.
According to the classification, there are seven types of snowflakes:
star-shaped crystals, needles, pillars (columns), plates, spatial dendrites, columns with tips and irregularly shaped snowflakes.
3. Johannes Kepler is the first to discover the hexagonal even shape of snowflakes. He even wrote an entire scientific treatise On Hexagonal Snowflakes in 1611.
4. Snowflakes are formed from vapor that has evaporated from the surface of the earth, bypassing the rain stage. Snow crystals form under conditions of condensation and action low temperatures. To find out this rather simple fact, scientists spent $26,400,000.
5. Snowflakes are more than 90% air, which is why their falling speed is so slow.
The lightness of the composition of snow described above does not mean that it is harmless, especially in large quantities. For example, the snow cover of the surface of a hectare can produce about 30 m3 of water when melting, which can threaten flooding of low-lying terrain. On the other hand, the impact of snow in mountainous conditions is deadly, where sometimes several snowflakes falling on the surface with an insufficient critical mass can provoke a snowfall. The danger of collapses is their high speed, which is in the range of 250-400 km / h.
Snow avalanches can rush down the mountain at the speed of an express train - from 80 to 110 km / h, but larger snow avalanches can develop even greater speed, reaching the milestone of 360 km / h.
6. Snowflakes are quite small, and when the atmosphere is cold and dry, they stay that way. For those who like to play snowballs, this snow is not pleasant, because it does not have enough moisture to make a snowball.
Did you know, that snowmen in Russia were originally sculpted not for children's fun, but in order to propitiate harsh winter.
In Russia, they believed that little snowmen are angels who can be entrusted with their dreams ... Since ancient pagan times, in the understanding of the Russian people (as well as some peoples of Northern Europe), snowmen are angels descended from heaven. After all, snow is a gift from heaven. This means that the snowman is none other than an angel who can convey people's requests to God. For this little snowman, they sculpted from freshly fallen snow and quietly whispered their cherished desire to him. They believed that as soon as the snow figurine melted, the wish would immediately be delivered to heaven and would soon come true.
7. Under certain conditions, in the absence of wind, falling snowflakes interlock with each other, forming huge snowflakes. The largest snowflake in history was recorded in 1987 in the USA (Montana) during a big snowfall. Its diameter was 38 cm, and the thickness was 20 cm. And this despite the fact that ordinary snowflakes have an average diameter of 5 mm.
For such a phenomenon, complete calm is necessary, because the longer the snowflakes travel, the more they collide and grapple with each other.
8. In Moscow, the strangest snow also fell on April 20, 1944, the size of snowflakes was the size of a human palm, and in shape they resembled ostrich feathers.
And in Siberia, snow flakes up to 30 centimeters in diameter were observed.
9. In the Far North, the snow is so hard that it rings like iron if you hit it.
On the far north endless winter,
And tons of ice, like a fur coat, cover the ground,
And the white snow embraces everything
The entire horizon. And life is white.
And there is no heat in this sky,
And the sun is a glare on a dome of ice. (Jan Void)
10. When snowflakes fall on the surface of the water, they "sing". That is, they emit a very high sound, which the human ear is not able to catch. But the fish, according to scientists, do not like this sound at all.
11. Why does snow crunch when walking? The main reason is that the crystals break. The nature of the crunch depends on the temperature of the snow. The lower it is, the louder the sound.
12. Snow is able to perceive only 5-10% of solar heat, the remaining 90-95% is reflected back, so it may not melt in the sun. In the city, snow can melt due to dust that settles on the snow and heats up in the sun.
In the conditions of a nuclear winter, in the event of its occurrence, humanity risks losing not only heat, but also food and oxygen produced by plants in places where the surface is covered with snow.
13. There are many cases when colored snow falls: from black to pink.
For example, California in 1955 saw green snow. A black snowfall shocked the people of Sweden in 1969.
Who colors the snow in such unusual colors for us?
Scientists say that interesting creatures live in the snow of the Antarctic mountains - snow chlamydomonas. So they make the snow pink, red, purple and even yellow. Such a phenomenon can be observed in Greenland, and in the mountains of the Caucasus, as well as in Antarctica. Scientists have found that snow chlamydomonas is a microscopic pinkish-red algae. This microorganism is not afraid of the cold, so it multiplies well on the surface of the snow.
Pinkish snow, for example, tastes like watermelon.
In our country, they also saw unusual snow: in 2002, multi-colored snow surprised Kamchatka. True, then the reason was dust storms- grains of sand stained the snow.
On January 31, 2007, orange snow fell in the vicinity of the village of Butakova in the Znamensky district of the Omsk region. And a year earlier, residents of the north of Primorsky Krai observed creamy-pink snow.
14. For many of us, snow is a common occurrence, and yet more than half of the human population globe they have never seen real snow live and never touched it with their hands.
15. In 1979, snow fell in the Sahara desert, which is located in Africa.
And even stayed there for half an hour!
16. Somewhere there is no snow, but somewhere it is dangerous! Did you know that one storm can throw out more than 39 million tons of snow, releasing an energy equal to 120 atomic bombs?
The Great Snowstorm of 1888 was one of the most devastating blizzards ever to hit New Jersey, New York, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. During the storm, 125 cm of snow fell.
The world record for the most heavy daily snowfall belongs to the American city of Georgetown, Colorado. On December 4, 1913, Georgetowners literally drowned in hitherto unseen 160 centimeters of white “fluff”.
Also, the longest snowfall was in 1932 in Canada. Then it snowed for 9 whole days and covered one-story houses up to the very roof.
17. There is snow not only on Earth, but also on Mars and on Titan, Saturn's moon. Moreover, on Mars snowing two types: ordinary and from carbon dioxide (dry ice), and on Titan - from methane.
Between the Equator and north pole Mars scientists saw a huge glacier.
18. The Japanese are distinguished by their reverent attitude to snow and snowflakes, believing that they are special on their islands, different from everyone else in the world. There is a snowflake museum on the island of Hokkaido in Japan. It is named after the physicist Nahaya Ukichiro. The prerequisite for the founding of the Snowflake Museum on the island of Hokkaido was the publication in 1954. Ukichiro Nahaya books about types of snowflakes.
Snowflake Museum in Japan.
19. Real snow can be brought from the street, put in a bowl and pampered by children. But this magic will not last long, as it will melt in minutes. To decorate a Christmas tree, window sills, candles and other details, you can use artificial snow, which is easy to make at home.
The first artificial snow was invented by Ukichiro Nakaya, a Japanese physicist and scientific essayist.
20. Snow is edible, everyone knows that. Did you know that while eating it, a person will spend more energy than he receives calories?
21. Snow ... This white miracle, presented to mankind by nature itself, cannot but arouse admiration. Figured, as if carved, snowflakes, silvery hoarfrost, flakes that look like "swan fluff", massive snowdrifts - snow is so different, but immensely charming and beloved. Beloved so much that a whole holiday was dedicated to him - World Snow Day.
World Snow Day (International Day of Winter Sports) is a rather young holiday. The initiator of its annual event was International Federation skiing.
