Our world is emptier than we know

Every bit of matter on earth is made up of atoms--the smallest particle of any element. EVERYTHING you can see and even stuff you can't is made up of these guys. They behave differently, making up different things, etc. But there is no escaping that atoms make up our whole world--everything we know.

But here is something very interesting to note. See the picture. Atoms are made up of a nucleus and tiny particles and electrons. Nobody is quite sure of theire precise looks because they are so tiny. But we do know that most of the atom is empty space.

Think of that! The Creator of the universe used these tiny building blocks to build earth...but it is mostly empty space.

This is just interesting to me.
