Art showing size of atomic components

Atomic dimensions. Computer artwork showing the relative sizes of atoms and their components. The scale at bottom, measured in fractions of a metre, decreases from left to right. A large water drop (blue, at upper left) is about 1 cm (10-2 metres) in size. Next in size is a molecule (red, green & blue) at about 1 nanometre (10-9 m) and an atom with its orbiting electrons at 1 angstrom (10-10 m). The neutrons (blue) and protons (red) which form the atomic nucleus (10-14 m) are about 1 femtometre (10-15 m) in size. Electrons (green) are roughly an attometre (10-18 m) in size as are the up (arrow up) and down (arrow down) quarks from which neutrons and protons are formed

EDITORS COMMENTS
This artwork, titled "Atomic Dimensions" takes us on an extraordinary journey into the intricate world of atomic components. Through a stunning computer-generated illustration, we are presented with a visual representation of the relative sizes of atoms and their constituents. At first glance, our eyes are drawn to a large water drop in brilliant shades of blue, serving as our point of reference. This droplet measures approximately 1 centimeter in size, setting the stage for what lies ahead. Moving towards smaller scales, we encounter a vibrant molecule composed of red, green, and blue hues. Its diminutive stature reveals that it is about 1 nanometer in length (10-9 meters), highlighting the remarkable precision at play within these microscopic realms. As our gaze continues its exploration downwards, we encounter an atom surrounded by its orbiting electrons. With each electron represented by a vivid shade of green and measuring around 1 angstrom (10-10 meters) in size – almost unimaginably tiny. Delving even deeper into this subatomic realm brings us face to face with neutrons and protons forming the atomic nucleus. These minute particles appear as delicate strokes of blue and red respectively; they measure approximately 1 femtometer (10-15 meters) – truly mind-boggling dimensions! Finally, we discover that electrons themselves are roughly an attometer (10-18 meters) in size - minuscule beyond comprehension! The up and down quarks from which neutrons and protons emerge share this astonishing scale
