@xylenol15 That's EXACTLY the thing that first caught my intention. The way the probability clouds are animated is brilliant.

[8yourfavoritemartian]

;D

Actually, it's believed "all of Earth's commercial diamond deposits were formed in the mantle and delivered to the surface by deep-source volcanic eruptions", not from coal.

On the other hand, I like how the atom animation captures the probabilistic nature of electron distributions.

Nerd out.

Team up with other elements Making compounds when they combine Or make up a simple element Formed out of atoms of the one kind Come on, come on and meet the elements Check out the ones they call the elements Like a box of paints that are mixed to make every shade They either combine to make a chemical compound Or stand alone as they are

[Visszinis]

Cool song
