Hydrogen

Hydrogen is the first element in the periodic table. It has an atomic number of 1, and an atomic mass of 1.00784 u.

History of Hydrogen:

Hydrogen is the most simple and abundant element in the universe. In 1766, a scientist named Henry Cavendish discovered it and termed it “inflammable air”. In 1783, Antoine Lavoisier named it “hydrogen”, meaning “water former”.

Hydrogen is now used for green energy, storage, and industrial applications.

Cool Rock I Saw

Rock erupt from Earth
Rocks stay around a while
Rocks understand it.

A picture of a very special rock

The Darmstadt region in Germany is rich in naturally occurring Oil Shale.

Most perfect diamonds are now made in labs. One way to tell between a natural D-FL diamond and a lab one, is the lab one looks TOO perfect.

In Germany, this rock gained the name Pitchblende, which means “Bad Luck”. When you found Pitchblende, you would start breaking your pickaxes, and the copper vein would run out.

Bismuth naturally creates beautiful crystal structures.

Radiation: Is it really dangerous?

“Unless you are purposely collecting and storing radioactive materials very incorrectly, it’s not dangerous.”

Since the 1940s we have always looked at radiation as the monster that had to be conquered or feared, but is it really as bad as science fiction would have you believe? Let’s explore this concept.

The Facts

Many people believe that radiation illnesses are a major factor for dying of cancers, but the facts just don’t back this up.

Illness Rate
Skin Cancer 60,000 – 90,000
Smoking 7,000,000 (1.5m from secondhand smoke)
Acute Radiation Syndrome 60-100 SINCE WWII
Per Capita Mortality of different diseases

The Truth

Radiation is a calculatable risk. We use certain tools to keep a safe measurement of this risk, but in most cases, radioactive material that most people can gain access to is not very dangerous. We have lived alongside it for thousands of years, and unless you are purposely collecting it and storing it very incorrectly, it’s not dangerous.

Private Jets

Private jets are a status symbol of the rich and famous. At the same time, in many cases, they actually make better sense for some businesses and celebrities.

Normally called business jets, it is often more economical to be able to fly directly to your destination instead of taking multiple flights with many staff members. Because of this, and the ability to ship mission critical items in an instant. Business jets have become the back bone of many businesses, including performers shows.

The Metric System
The Metric System has been adopted by most of the world, but in The United States of America, it never really caught on. There are some major measurements that can be made in Metric. The primary sizes are as such.
- meter – length
- gram – mass
  - kilogram
- Celsius – Temp
- Candela – Luminosity
- Liter – Volume
A famous quote:

If God wanted us to use the metric system, he would have given us ten fingers and ten toes.
