How did we get here? Well, in terms of Atomic Chemistry, Hank takes us on a tour of the folks that were part of the long chain of other folks who helped us get to these deeper understandings of the world. From Leucippus to Heisenberg to you – yes, YOU – the story of Atomic Chemistry is all wibbly-wobbly… and amazing.
