“There are only 3 chemical symbols which spell full words. The words are “Be” for Beryllium, “No” for Nobelium and “I“ for Iodine. Multiple chemical symbols can be mixed together to spell over 100 words, though, like Ac Ce S S I Bi Li Ti Es and YOU.”

“It’s an exciting time to dive into the world of the lesser-known elements like actinides and see what unique possibilities forward-thinkers have envisioned for them.”

“Just as knights confront battles and strive for glory, these actinide elements undergo transformations through processes like radioactive decay, evolving into different forms over time, much like a knight becomes wiser after trials.”

“Fermium was discovered unexpectedly along with Einsteinium in debris from the first hydrogen bomb test, codenamed ‘Mike’, which took place in the Pacific on October 31, 1952. The debris was collected on filter papers attached to drone airplanes that flew through the explosion area. Later, to obtain more material, many hundreds of pounds of coral from the blast area were examined.”

“Mendelevium was discovered and named during the Cold War era so the scientists who discovered it had to convince the U.S. government to allow their proposal to name the element for Dmitri Mendeleev, who was a Russian scientist. Since he was known as the father of the periodic table, the International Union of Pure & Applied Chemistry approved the use of his name for element 101.”

“When they're watching musicals, I've heard people say, 'That's not realistic! Why would they just start singing?' But, I think they can believe it if they try! I mean, science fiction requires a suspension of disbelief, but people allow themselves to sit back and enjoy it anyway.”

“Climate change is real, and global warming is accelerating. It is a special threat to our youth since they will be around for 30-50 more years. Without significant efforts to control global warming, its effects by then will be draconian.”

“Science doesn't tell us what we should do. It only tells us what is.”

“I think we are very musical people, so we take pride in singing hymns very well, and embracing learning different instruments and learning music as a science. I think that had a huge impact on my musical career.”

“We will start with Hawking's few quotations.”

“Sometimes scientific discoveries are like that […]. Once people know something is possible, the pace of new findings increases. (Wylan)”
