First Image of a Single Molecule

[rockytopva]

IBM scientists have made the first image of a single molecule, showing the atomic bonds. It looks amazingly like the textbook models. Awe inspiring!

I believe if Mass (m) = Energy (E/c2) And there are three varieties...

Natural E/c2 - All mass is basically cooled plasma, the sun is the visible form of E/c2
Mental E/c2 - Our thinking can produce creativeness, light, and good things
Spiritual E/c2 - E (motivation, warmth, love) / c2 (faith, hope, charity, joy)

The Natural E/c2 in the form of mass produces a gravity that attracts other objects
The Intellectual E/c2 produces a gravity that draws us to study
The Spiritual E/c2 also has a gravity that draws and makes religion attractive

You can see the energy and light that binded this pentacene (Pentacene - Wikipedia) molecule...

Pentacene is composed of 5 benzene rings. Ahhh! Organic chemistry! Many things can happen with that carbon atom!

Pfft. So what? I'm made up of, like, millions of those, man.

Ten years ago. Old news, man.

There was a better image made using STM in 2015:

You're made up out of pentacene? What kind of freaky alien are you?

Geez...feeling backed into a corner here all of the sudden, all for my little joke.

Fine, fineee... a 'selfie', as they call it:

So now you know what all the typos and subsequent edits in my posts are all about. Sometimes I just can't get myself together.

Be honest. You're an alien, aren't you? Your ancestors built the Pyramids, didn't they?

Or maybe not. I've only just noticed the "non-Egyptian" tag.

 

[dzheremi]

Hahaha. Maybe some pyramids somewhere else in the world, but not the ones in Egypt.
