Both theoretical and practical study on the combination of bullets of snow was conducted. The universal and theoretical study revealed that under some specific conditions which realize the Ostwald's step rule, the metastable phase crystals are born first, and then the stable phase crystals nucleate on them. On the basis of the theoretical study, the experiments for artificial combination of bullets of snow were conducted. In the cold room at Nishiborieizaburo kinen Explorer Museum in Higashiomi, Shiga Prefecture, micro water droplets were introduced into the cooled vessel to be frozen and grew. After that, they were recovered for microscopic observation. As a result, combination of bullets in nature was recreated for the first time in the world.
