LINCOLN, Nebraska, May 29 (TNSJou) -- The University of Nebraska Lincoln campus issued the following news release:
A minuscule water droplet is on the move, picking up speed as it glides along a stretch of thin, flat terrain. Abruptly, it hits a rough patch -- the microscopic equivalent of glass speed bumps into which the droplet settles and stops dead.
The droplet appears parked, anchored in place. But unlike their macro counterparts, these mini speed bumps are easily . . .
