Did you know we have known about atoms for over 2500 years? Did you know that a kiwi scientist who went to school 15 minutes from where I lived proved atoms have a nucleus? Join me as I explore the evolution of the model of the atom to what we know today, tying in some Aotearoa history and a reflection on the ever changing nature of our scientific understanding along the way. Atoms really do...matter.
