Where does rain come from, and where does it go?

Quarky is writing this for you...
The story
Quarky follows a single drop around the great water cycle, from the sea to the sky and back again.
What you'll learn
- The Sun warms the sea and water rises as invisible vapor.
- High up, cold air turns the vapor into tiny drops that make clouds.
- When drops grow too heavy, they fall as rain.
- Rivers carry the rain back to the sea, and the loop starts over.
