Last winter semester we began our Astronomy study and this winter/spring we are completing our study. (we studied Botany and cross-continent nature as well :)
To understand why gas giants like Uranus and Neptune have clouds in their atmospheres we made clouds in a jar.
First step, gather some ice, and some hot water.
Place a lit match into the hot water and quickly place the bag of ice on top of the jar.
Immediately the clouds form!!! Why? the cloud forms in the jar as the hot water evaporates turning into a gas "water vapour"which rises and then comes into contact with the cool air from the ice cubes. That's what creates the clouds.
