Raindrops are shaped like hamburger buns

Burgers really are everywhere. A new study finds that raindrops are shaped like hamburger buns, not tears as previously thought:

“The teardrop shape of a raindrop has been accepted as fact for generations and has even inspired songwriters over the years from Dee Clark to James Blunt.

But the American space agency has discovered that in reality raindrops are shaped rather like the rather more prosaic top of a hamburger bun, round at the top and flat at the bottom.”

365 Days of Balloons

Much like my “Burger365” Project, graphic designer Meghan Coleman is attempting a 365 challenge of her own with Balloon Animals and day 59 was this Balloon Cheeseburger. Check out all her other creations so far at http://365days-of-balloons.tumblr.com/ and cheer her on as she still has over half a year to go.
