Quick post (about cool science things)

The electron is so perfectly spherical that if it were blown up into the size of the solar system it would only be off by the measure of the thickness of a hair.

How many digits of pi do you need to accurately measure the size of the universe (only being off by the size of a hydrogen atom)? Answer: not 42, sorry, that would be cool, it's actually 39 digits.

Atoms are mostly just empty space. In fact, a hydrogen atom is actually 99.9999999999996% empty space.
