Morning mystery

Why is there condensation on the windshield but not on the side windows? Because the windshield is thicker?

  1. Because the windshield was in direct line of sight of the sun, warming up the glass? The windows are on the sides? They stayed colder/cooler? Maybe?

  2. Thanks for the answer. However, one of the rules of storytelling is that factual answers are usually less entertaining than fictional ones. ;)

  3. eh, takes all kinds! I'm more the compulsive encyclopedia/ mad scientist type personality. :)

    Actually, this makes me wonder if you could travel this way without an electric fridge - cool your stuff down at night with a solar oven rig, then plop the contents in your cooler in the morning, rinse and repeat.
