Buckminsterfullerene molecule C016 / 8361
Buckminsterfullerene molecule. Computer artwork showing the molecular structure of buckminsterfullerene, a structurally distinct form (allotrope) of carbon that has 60 carbon atoms (orange) arranged in a spherical structure consisting of interlinking hexagonal and pentagonal rings, like a football. These spherical fullerenes are sometimes referred to as buckyballs

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the intricate beauty of a buckminsterfullerene molecule, also known as a "buckyball". Created through computer artwork, this image reveals the molecular structure of this unique form of carbon. Composed of 60 carbon atoms arranged in interlinking hexagonal and pentagonal rings, the spherical structure resembles that of a football. Against a striking black background, the vibrant orange coloration highlights each individual atom within the molecule. The organic nature of this illustration brings forth an appreciation for the wonders found within chemistry and atomic structures. Buckminsterfullerenes are considered one of many allotropes or structurally distinct forms that carbon can take. These spherical fullerenes have earned their nickname "buckyballs" due to their resemblance to tiny soccer balls. This particular buckyball is referred to as C016/8361, representing its specific arrangement and configuration. The artist's meticulous attention to detail allows viewers to marvel at the complexity and elegance present in such minuscule particles. As we delve into the world of molecules and macromolecules, it becomes clear how Richard Buckminster Fuller's name became synonymous with these fascinating structures. Without mentioning commercial use or affiliations with any company, this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and educational tool for those intrigued by chemistry and molecular science.
