Buckminsterfullerene Earth, artwork
Buckminsterfullerene Earth. Conceptual computer artwork of the Earth surrounded by a molecular model of buckminsterfullerene (C60). This is a structural form (allotrope) of carbon. The carbon atoms (pink spheres) form pentagonal and hexagonal ring structures. These in turn are connected to form the ball structure. The first fullerene was discovered in 1985. Since then, fullerenes have been synthesised that range from 36 to 540 carbon atoms in size. Their novel physical and chemical properties can be exploited to make new catalysts, lubricants and superconductors

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork titled "Buckminsterfullerene Earth" combines science and art to create a visually stunning representation of our planet. The conceptual computer artwork features the Earth at its center, surrounded by a molecular model of buckminsterfullerene (C60), an allotrope of carbon. The intricate structure of this molecule is beautifully showcased in the print, with pink spheres representing carbon atoms forming pentagonal and hexagonal ring structures. These rings are interconnected to form the iconic ball-shaped fullerene structure. First discovered in 1985, fullerenes have since been synthesized in various sizes ranging from 36 to 540 carbon atoms. This unique class of molecules possesses novel physical and chemical properties that have paved the way for advancements in materials science, nanotechnology, catalysts, lubricants, and superconductors. By fusing scientific concepts with artistic expression, this artwork serves as a reminder of humanity's ability to explore and harness nature's building blocks for innovation. It symbolizes our global quest for knowledge and understanding while celebrating the beauty inherent within molecular structures. "Buckminsterfullerene Earth" invites viewers to contemplate both the complexity and elegance found within our world on both macroscopic and microscopic scales. It stands as a testament to human curiosity about the fundamental building blocks that shape our existence while showcasing the harmonious blend between science and artistry captured through this mesmerizing print from Science Photo Library.
