Quantum physics, astrophysics and chemistry. All these branches of science owe something to these two objects. Discover how two friends, a physicist and a chemist, discovered what would be the fingerprint of the Universe. Video made at the Department of Chemistry of the University of Girona With the collaboration of the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology - Ministry of Economy, Industry and Competitiveness. No atoms were harmed during the recording of this video. Objects used: Reacts Explodes Spectroscope: imgur.com/a/XJCH5XG 3D Spectroscope: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:490...
