Whether for convenience or because you don’t want to get your hands dirty, the toilet lid usually stays open during flushing and after you’ve done the most important things.

For more than 60 years, researchers have known that flushing a toilet, while solids and liquids are carried down the drain as intended, can also release small, invisible particles into the air and eventually settle on surrounding surfaces. Only: Until now, no one knew what these “particle plumes” look like or how the particles get there.
