Rain, Rain Go Away - RAIN FACTS For a Rainy Day

It's April and yes that means rain. As a matter of fact, it was raining when I wrote this. The rain has been the inspiration for my 'Relaxing Sounds' Rain video creation and for some rain facts for a rainy day...

Did You Know...

Not all raindrops are created equally. Rain occurs on other moons and planets but in a different way we experience on Earth.

For instance, on Venus, the rain is made up of sulfuric acid but due to intense heat, it evaporates before it even reaches the surface! And even more interesting, on a extrasolar planet some 5,000 light years away, planet OGLE-TR-56b, is theorized to have iron rain instead of water!

On Titan, Saturn’s largest natural satellite, infrequent methane rain is thought to carve the moon’s numerous surface channels.
