Why do bubbles pop?
There are many reasons why a bubble pops. Evaporation of its water content, air
turbulence, and, most commonly, dryness - contact with a dry surface or dry air. When you
make bubbles in the sun, they evaporate quickly. When there is a strong wind, or even a
gentle breeze, bubbles are much more difficult to create and are popped by the wind's
force. If the air is very dry, as it is in the desert, or if a bubble touches a dry finger
or a piece of clothing or the ground, it pops instantly. Here are some recommendations for
the best conditions for making bubbles, especially giant bubbles:
- Work in shady areas.
- Try bubble making right after the sun sets.
- Make bubbles when the air is still or only slightly breezy.
- Play with bubbles after a rainstorm. When the air is
full of moisture, bubbles will seemingly last forever.
- Stay in open areas where your bubbles won't run into dry
objects.
- Keep you bubble tools really wet with bubble solution.
