Culmination- A symmetric ending?

Hello, readers!

For those of you who have traveled with us on our symmetrical journey, we've covered just about all the major topics involving symmetry-- from group theory to fluorocarbons to the ethics behind it all.

 



We've also encountered several comments and feedback from a couple of experts- such as researcher Dr. Sool Cho, who discussed with us briefly on the matter of whether chemistry-- and specifically symmetry-- is created or discovered. (Thank you again, Dr. Cho! Hope to hear from you again.)

In addition, don't forget about the numerous scientific breakthroughs-- such as the discovery (or creation?) of quasicrystals-- in which symmetry was critical! Indeed, we saw how symmetry really is everywhere around us.

 


But hold on! We're ending this introductory project, but just the fact that we've touched upon a lot of the topics at hand does NOT mean that our blog will  be over! In fact, it's just the opposite. Stick around, as we continue on with our journey.

(In fact, comment! Tell us what you liked about our blogs, or let us know of any symmetric discoveries that we did not mention! After all, the blog is nothing without you all reading.)
