Well, for sure, yes. But that nothing is definitely wibbly-wobbly, right?
This makes me think about just how bizarre we are at multiple levels. Quantum foam of nothing and probabilities, atoms and electrons and forces, then molecules making up DNA and cells, and then us enormously huge humans.
- jacquesm 7y agoOne of the most interesting molecules is the Ribosome, the 'player' if you wish of an RNA molecule that assembles proteins out of the soup it floats in. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribosome https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ribosome It's a real life nano-assembler and there are billions of them in your body (and about 10 million give or take per cell).
- bloopernova 7y ago> 10 million give or take per cell That just astounds and confounds me. An astonishing amount of stuff in just one cell! We're amazing beings at so many levels. Thank you for that link :)
- jacquesm 7y agoWait until you realize that the total length of all the DNA in a single cell is 3 Km... How's that for folding@home ;)
