I mean steam/condensate could be condensed more if you were to put it above 14.7 psi (atmospheric pressure at normal altitude). In the sense it would take up less and less volume. I was using the phrase condensation to illustrate that it can now collect on objects. As the majority of people only recognize the word condensation as the water that forms on the outside of a cold glass. If you held a wood/metal/glass sheet over that boiling water, that sheet would become saturated/covered with condensation. Easy enough to say its producing condensation on the sheet. Just trying to explain it in a way that would be the most digestible to the reader. This isn't meme, this is my Tedtalk.
Believe it or not, actual steam is invisible. What you see is the mist/condensate (Lil tiny water drops). The steam is right above the waterline then transitions to mist as it cools. By doing so it becomes visible and is able to produce condensation on things. Steam is a really cool and powerful thing that is poorly understood by most people. Not that most people really need to know or care about it. I'm just unironically a steam guy by trade (mechanical engineer working as an operating engineer at a power plant that uses steam).
I work around thousand plus degree metal, highly caustic/acidic chemicals, and lots of spinning shit (power plant operating engineer). You'd need a deathwish.
