8 Awesome Science Experiments For Real, Proper Grown Ups

Gain the power of Thor with this super-simple home experiment, and learn how to create your own clouds.

This experiment is ridiculously quick and easy, but amazingly satisfying. All you will need is a plastic bottle, a little high-proof alcohol and a bicycle pump.

You use the bike pump to ramp up the pressure within the bottle. This means that when you release this pressure, it should cause the alcohol within it to vaporise, giving you your very own fluffy white cloud.

This is exactly the same principle, just scaled up a bit, that is behind the formation of the "proper clouds" in our weather systems. Although, don't let your cute little bottle cloud know that we said it's not a "proper cloud".
