Can someone with scientific knowledge help me figure out why all the condensation on my glassware and plastic has this weird rainbow sheen?

Nothing. Literally a new blender jar that I just rinsed out.

If i were to guess i would say it was microscopic water droplets from the steam diffracting the light.

Okay, thank you. I'm sorry for wasting board space with this thread, I've just noticed this happening for awhile on all my glass and plastic and I'm worried it's a sign of airborne pollution in my apartment or something.

I mean i was just guessing but I know that rainbows form because all of the thousands of water droplets diffracting the sunlight.

I'd be more worried about it being some bullshit plastic chemical leeching than pet dander or something.
