It doesn't have a beginning, and it never really stops. It keeps going like a big circle. Evaporation is when the sun heats up water in rivers, lakes, on oceans and turns it into vapor or steam. The water vapor or steam leaves and goes into the air. Condensation is when water vapor in the air gets cold and changes back into liquid, forming clouds.  Mother Goose Special School System, Inc. Precipitation is when so much water has condensed that the air cannot hold it anymore. The clouds get heavy, and water falls back to the earth in the form of rain, hail, sleet or snow. Collection is when precipitation collects on earth. It may collect in oceans, rivers, lakes, or ponds. It may soak into the earth and become a part of the ground water. After this collection, the water will evaporate and the whole cycle will begin again. All life on Earth needs water. It’s so important to us that when we’re searching for life on other planets, the first thing we look for is liquid water. But water isn’t always a liquid on Earth; it changes to a gas and solid as part of the water cycle.
