What is the water cycle?

The water cycle describes how water makes its way around the Earth, where it goes, and where it's stored. It has no beginning and no end, and all water goes through this. The purpose of this website is to demonstrate and explain how the water cycle works in a fun, interactive AR model that works on any phone!
