Each crystal forms around a particle of dust. All have a 6-fold symmetry, but no two have ever been found with exactly the same shape. Their variety and complexity is breathtaking.
Frozen Planet, 1.01
This is what I love about winter. You wake up in the middle of the night, maybe just to pee or get water or something, look out the window and see this. It’s so beautiful. And it’s silent; you have no idea that it’s happening until you just look. It almost seems fake. And it makes your bed seem way more comfortable, for whatever reason.
