- 1Water Refused to Evaporate Faster Under Intense Light▼Scientists Blasted Water With Light 10 Billion Times Brighter Than Sunlight. It Still Didn't Evaporate Faster.
Researchers bombarded water with light roughly 10 billion times brighter than natural sunlight, expecting faster evaporation, but the water failed to evaporate any more quickly. The surprising result challenges assumptions about how light drives evaporation and could reshape understanding of processes relevant to climate science, desalination and industrial drying technologies.
