Fluid dynamics researchers Jacy C. Bird and William D. Ristenpart were doing routine experiments on water droplets, when the supposedly predictable outcome failed to materialize. Instead of coalescing as expected, the charged water drops they were testing began repelling each other—a result that seemed to fly in the face of elementary science...
