DOES WATER KEEP IT'S PERFECT CIRCLE SHAPE IN ZERO GRAVITY? DOES IT FREEZE IN ZERO GRAVITY? Do stem cells have an experation date when they are cooled to 3 degrees c. ? If so does freezing them form ice crytals that can damage the blood? Any help on one or all of these will be much appreciated thanks.1coolfactor

if there are no other external forces then yes water will form into a sphere in zero G as it still adheres to itself and still has surface tension. in practice though there will be other forces (such as air moving) that will effect the shape and push it out of the perfect sphere shape.
