The Snowflake Mystery Solved by Dr Ken Libbrecht
Deux cristaux de neige peuvent-ils être jumeaux? Non, selon l'adage. Oui, pour Kenneth Libbrecht, le physicien américain qui a même fabriqué des «triplés» et des «quadruplés» dans son laboratoire.

The Snowflake: Winter’s Frozen Artistry
The Snowflake: Winter’s Frozen Artistry by Kenneth Libbrecht and Rachel Wing
Synopsis: Take a deeper look at the unique, hidden beauty of winter with the world’s foremost snowflake expert.
From ten thousand feet above the Earth, a snowflake begins its fall. Its journey starts when ice forms around a nucleus of dust and is blown by the winds through clouds where the crystals blossom into tiny ice…

Los copos de nieve aman la física y la geometría
Los copos de nieve esconden muchas curiosidades, incluso para los amantes de la física y la geometría .... Por ejemplo: ¿Cómo toman ese aspecto que, bajo el microscopio, aparecen tan complejos y característicos? Todos los copos parten de una forma "base", un cristal hexagonal de hielo, de la que emergen poco a poco "ramas" y otras estructuras. Aquí hay una colección hecha por Kenneth Libbrecht, un físico del Instituto de Tecnología de California.
Radiolab on Bliss
Moments of total, world-shaking bliss are not easy to come by. Maybe that's what makes them feel so life-altering when they strike. And so worth chasing. This hour: stories of striving, grasping, tripping, and falling for happiness, perfection, and ideals.
We see these beautiful structures falling from the sky, and we still cannot explain how they came to be. When you ask how snowflakes form, you are really asking about how molecules go from a disordered gaseous state to an ordered crystalline lattice. Unexpected phenomena can emerge — snowflakes are one fascinating example.
