They put a GoPro camera inside the water bubble. It's pretty neato to see.

It does look like they were having a blast but there was an experiment side to it. The blurby thing I read said that they were wanting to find out how water surface tension is affected in space. I'll have a looksee for it...

GoPro cameras have been used for many things lately including entertainment for astronauts. Three astronauts went to the space station and brought on with them. These astronauts decided to put the camera into a floating water bubble as part of an experiment to explore water surface tension in micro-gravity. Once the camera is inside the blob, the video shows footage from the camera. The neatest part of the whole experiment is when they try to get the camera out of the water.

Imagine that looks pretty tough, and would explain how the comets could have formed if a water bearing planet we had say in the asteroid belt zone had broken up and the water did that instead of boiling away and become globs of the water we have now on Earth?
