"All of physics is either impossible or trivial. It is impossible until you understand it, and then it becomes trivial."

Ernest Rutherford was born #OTD in 1871. Rutherford is known as "the father of nuclear physics" because his research, and work done under him as laboratory director, established the nuclear structure of the atom & the essential nature of radioactive decay as a nuclear process. via nostr:npub1kvnpp3m60derhwpqwc09zhk3ehk48tr6agc6dk9z2vggu9sga28qpxhm73
