Bursting water balloons in a low-gravity environment. This is really cool.

I like the last one the best, when the water drops like a rock. What a cool job.

It sure does show, briank. Those animated gifs make baby Jebus cry.

First thing tomorrow, I will convince my professor I *really* need one of those airplanes. Sure, I can do my experiments on the ground... But why not have some fun while doing them ? All those stories by colleagues about these 'terrible parabolic flights' are just a cover-up: they're having fun without me!
