Science turns the taps on in drought-hit areas

Scientists have observed water spontaneously condensing and moving across the surface of an organic crystal that is slowly subliming. This finding could pave the way for a new approach to collecting drinking water from the air in arid regions. Explore this new research context with secondary school students as a real-world context for studying states of matter.
