Giant electrohydrodynamic instability of a partially immersed liquid‐metal body is triggered by tiny copper particles, resulting in long‐term surface convection and large‐scale shape transformation of the liquid metal. In article number 1700939 , Jianbo Tang, Jing Liu, and co‐workers describe how complex flow patterns of the particle‐driven surface convection are further captured by tracing the motions of the particles accompanying the flow.
