@@chesterdamolester6990thank you, that’s much better
Process 😂
One other way to look at this is use time as a scale instead of length.
A picosecond is to one second as one second is to approximately 31,689 years. (Wikipedia).
It is small but I think we can relate better to a second then a millimeter.
Then multiply pico x 1,000 to get to a femto.
If m not mistaken a. Crew at MIT was able to achieve either a pico or femto pulse with a laser.
@@danieljohnson2662 and laser exceeded the speed of light in a rare case when gone through cesium steam
The end of the film Men in black where the aliens are playing marbles with the galaxies/multiverses is probably the best way to describe the two extremes of unimaginably huge to inconceivably small
The fourth film could well be the men in black "fleeing" the universe and going to meet/face these giants 😂
For some reason, I think about that scene often.
That was fantastic.
I always thought what if that’s how the curvature of space actually works? That as we zoom out from our planet its no different than an atom in the spec of a strand of hair. But this fold is in a multitude of dimensions and time so rather than travelling to another location in space you could just shrink.
underrated
We’re literally a bunch of atoms , learning about a bunch of atoms on a bunch of atoms

If you blew up an atom to the size of the Milky Way Galaxy. A planck length would be equivalent to a small tree on earth.
Wow, I did not know that. Guess I got something cool to tell to others.

Sounds like there is infinity in both directions.
@lrayvick probably, the bible says, "In Him, we move and have our being."

Pretty small

Yes very interesting

Who else 😢
I once learned, if you scale a hair to the size of a football field an atom has the size of a human hair. Not sure that helps. But... it is pretty small!
Just to add - if the atom were the size of a baseball stadium, then the nucleus would be the size of a ping pong ball. So, at the atomic level, there is a massive jump to its nucleus.
*a grain of sand, not a ping pong ball
@@side5029 relationship is ~0.6-1.1angstrom to ~1.7^-5Angstrom. So roughly a factor of 15000. Very coarse sand is around 2mm. So your baseballfield is about 30m.
That's why neutronium is so very heavy.
Is it safe to say that there are smaller things going on in the nucleus? Is it an infinite inward way of smaller atoms, in the atoms?
@@abc123lov7 Atoms are made up of three main subatomic particles: protons, neutrons, and electrons. Protons carry a positive charge, neutrons are electrically neutral, and electrons carry a negative charge. Additionally, there are other subatomic particles such as quarks, which are the building blocks of protons and neutrons, and higher-mass particles like mesons and bosons, which mediate forces between particles. Over 200 subatomic particles have been discovered through particle physics research
And imagine, when the nucleus is split, a force of destruction spanning miles can be created. Astonishing.
Wait that's not exactly accurate. Isn't it only the uranium nucleus?
@@WeyardWiz uranium and plutonium. Fission occurs when these atoms are split, generating enormous energy. Still quite crazy how that can happen.

If to be exactly concise, protons and newtrons mustn't have a clear boundary either. But this's good enough.
They don't actually have a color either

This is the perfect definition of " Can't wrap my head around it "
I can't even imagine how scientists made research on these atoms ? HATS OFF TO THEM 🎉
Well thought out models to explain experimental results, and well thought out experiments to validate said models.
Careful measurements of chemical quantities and ratios lead Dalton to firmly state that atoms exist.
Dalton’s cathode ray experiments showed that atoms had parts, starting with the electron.
Rutherford’s gold foil experiment showed that the positive parts were in a nucleus which was many orders of magnitude smaller than the atom itself.
The SLACC experiments at CalTech in the 60s showed protons have parts, the quark.
And many many more experiments. We can now actually see atoms using atomic force microscopy.
I think we have gents from the North of England to thank for that. JJ Thompson and James Chadwick were from Lancashire/Cheshire. They both worked with Ernest Rutherford, although technically from New Zealand his father was Scottish and mother from Essex, but we will forget about the Essex bit!
@@patricksmith4424 Although they had put their hard efforts to do research on these atoms only Bohr's(Danish Physicist) Model was widely accepted.
@@Ciarson_Flumes between the 3 of them they discovered the electron, neutron and Proton, basically the atom as we know it. Bohrs is still a theory and basically involved how the electron moves around the nucleas in orbits. The players in the atom had already been discovered.
Props for showing a more accurate representation of electron orbits. 👏🏾 👏🏾
There is no such thing as electron orbits, electrons is in superposition it is everywhere and nowhere at the same time. Its like a wave around atom. And you cannot predict exact place till measurement. You may only assume probability of its position. The closer to the nucleus of an atom, the more likely it is there when we measure it. Nano world is not like things we could see by eyes.
Seeing this really hybridized my p orbital
Why black hands, it's irritating
I love how we actually have absolutely no idea what an atom is, or what it looks like, but we sure like to portray we do.
Neutrinos are crazy to me, if you were the size of the whole observable universe, a neutrino would be the size of a golf ball.

@@danielholland2988that doesnt sound right
@@lukaswilliams5851 google my frien, I can't explain the entire thing as I'm not a mathematician by profession but there are 32 pieces in a game of chess and 64 squares to move on, add other variables such as certain pieces being able to move any number of spaces they choose. And remember you could have at least several hundred games that were the exact same except for one move.... It's a very large number my friend like billions of trillions
@@lukaswilliams5851 It's not right. There are more possibe games of chess than there are atoms in the universe, by far.
You could continue zooming in forever and never view the smallest point
Except all the concepts of measurement & stuff breaks down eventually, this is the Plank length
I thought atoms are the smallest point?
@@MinecraftKing-nd1zo nope atoms are the current smallest point however it's fairly simple to understand atoms are made of something.
@@user-qr3nz1wi2j current measuring methods and viewing beyond our current capabilities are the only thing standing in the way of identifying and classifying smaller materials
The concept of understanding infinitely smaller materials can be understood simply by cutting a piece of paper in half, then cut that piece in half and continue to cut each half in half, there is no point in wich the paper can't be split into two pieces regardless of how small the particles are by cutting it in half you can always be 100% certain that there is an equal amount left to the piece removed, it would be silly to think you could ever remove something by taking only half, there is an infinite amount times you can do this, therefore understanding that it's simple to see how we can infinitely zoom in smaller and smaller, so long as we have the technology to view it.
I find it hilarious that there are "photos of trapped atoms" on the internet as if it were possible to take a photograph of an individual atom and it be visible without "enhancement"
"As we travel inward we soon cross the boundary of human imagination"
We have no clue how stuff actually works...
What blows my mind is that this ever shrinking down from hair to atom just goes on forever. Something is always made up of something smaller. As the same happens on the big side of the scale. Like a person to a planet to the universe and so on.
Will end up in pure energy
@@josephantony3296 nice. I like that.

Why does TH-cam notify me about "CTGN is partially or completely financed by the Chinese Government"? A TH-cam channel which is called CTGNEurope?
Because CGTN is a chinese news site that is partially or completely funded by the chinese government. CGTNEurope is the European branch of said news company. The fact that it specifies "Europe" should actually be what tells you that it's not a European company, and that it instead has European satellites. Specifying the national origin of the branch of the company that is producing a thing is common when dealing with news companies that are based out of non-European and non-American countries.
Probably to let you know not to trust it. China likes to spread misinformation and negativity

Big praise to the model to remain stand still while the cameramen zoomed on her hairs
Atoms being that small is crazy to think about. You know what’s more crazy? How small electrons are at about 1/1800 of a proton!
in mass, but not in size. A proton is 1 fm, but an electron is 0, however if you confine it to a space smaller than a hydrogen atom/137, it will generate antimatter.
Wait till people find out everything is just vibrational frequency
The nature of the Universe is so stunning.
I for some reason imagined myself with a bunch of big red and white nucleus on my head
The cameraman never dies fr
Whats even cooler is that nothing touches anything else. There is space between all atoms.

Lol
Fr bruh
Me waiting for Plank Distance 🚬🗿
For context.
1 m = 1000 mm and 1 mm = 1000 micrometers and 1 micrometer = 1000 nanometers and 1 nanometer = 1000 femtometers.
So a single hair is 1/10 of a mm thick or 100 micrometers. 😊
If you want to know it in USA metrics search it on Google but this is normal people units. 👍🏼
And from there new universe starts.

There are different Atoms? It depends on the subatomic materials, the Electrons, the Protons and the Neutrons, what material they form.
Woah👏 this is underrated

The word creation implies a creator, we don't have sufficient evidence to reach such a conclusion.
You also made several active claims that have encumbered you with the burden of proof.
Amazing the fact that we have this knowledge and how much still not known.
Amazing that we continue to break the building blocks of our world, knowing full well that once broken, these decaying atoms can start other 'normal' matter (atoms) decaying! And we can't stop the atoms from decaying, or fix a single one! The end of our world will be because we have done this.
And we still end up studying about it 😢

That’s what I always wondered… if the atom is nuclei touching or the shells of electrons touching. Thank you. For some reason no one ever illustrated this. Atoms touch at the shells of where electrons travel which gives “things” their solid state.
Mine is still smaller😔
As a Bio and chemistry student, it all makes sense now...
It's really same as texts

Another NPC just has to speak. Smh
You know your dialogue is restricted but you just speak anyway. Poor NPC.
@@goodcitizen3780what the heck are you saying
@@Dacentrurus
I can sympathize with your curiosity.
All I mean to say is that OP clearly doesn't get it. OP is hyper focused on a specific term that OP imagines has only one definition, that only describes one very specific thing.
OP imagines that they are clever and wise, that they are in some way, minor or otherwise, smarter than others, quicker than others, or that they may perceive things more deeply or clearly.
In reality, OP's mind is sluggish and their vision is cloudy. Moreover their perception is lacking both outward and inward.
I called the OP and NPC because in certain cases of simulation theory there are NPCs, just like one might find in a video game. The NPCs don't necessarily realize that they are NPCs but instead carry on through life bumbling about thinking that they understand this or that but when they speak it is apparent to anyone with a modicum of intelligence that they are just running off of their basic programming. No depth. No real reasoning. Just the idea of something and they can't explain how they've arrived there or even what the logical conclusion might be. Furthermore, even when presented with indisputable fact from uncorruptible sources, they refuse to abandon the nonsense that they previously proffered.
So they may be referred to as NPCs, bumping off of the walls and carrying on their dialogue scripts even when it makes no sense contextually, or even when the content makes no sense.
Obviously it goes deeper than that, and I have other meanings wound into this theme but you'll get the gist from this interaction.
Cheers

It is an animation. Don’t be dumb.
The microverse within is just as provocative and mysterious as the macroverse without.

What shocks me is that there is space between all the particles that we’re composed of
This is why it’s so brain breaking to imagine there are more chess moves on a single board than there are atoms in the observable universe. It will not ever compute with my mind.
No, atoms are typically measured in picometers (pm) or angstroms (Å), which are smaller units of length than a femtometer (fm). A femtometer is equal to 10^-15 meters, whereas a picometer is 10^-12 meters, and an angstrom is 10^-10 meters.
Riiiiiggghhhttt.... I was gonna say the same thing
Larger bro. Larger*
@TheBlackmanIsGod this is just wrong, though it's an easy mistake to make. The exponents you listed are correct, but when considering negative exponents the "more negative" exponents means the measurement is smaller. For example, cm are 10^-2 m while mm are 10^-3 m. So, yes, the video WAS correct
MINUS!!!!!!
Would it be accurate to presume that if an atom's nucleus was the size of a green pea laying at the middle of the 50 yard line, the closest electron would be a whiff of energy somewhere up in the nose bleed section of the third deck?
Can you please speak English and not American?
