- RealmDown, on 04/23/2009, -2/+51Fundamental quantum theory validation and verification.
- ChrisOrr, on 04/23/2009, -5/+36sweet.... now what's it for?
- SkippyDoorknob, on 04/23/2009, -2/+24Is this going to be on the final?
- christoast, on 04/23/2009, -15/+36In other news: Chimpanzee Riding A Segway - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xp9Gm-aRe5A
- Androne, on 04/23/2009, -0/+14I'm betting people thought the same thing when they found out Uranium underwent spontanious fission.
- pixelguru, on 04/23/2009, -1/+12Did they finally create unobtainium?
- louiebaur, on 04/23/2009, -3/+12Of course it is!
- NashvilleSEO, on 04/23/2009, -4/+12These kinds of stories make me wish I lived about a thousand or so years in the futureāI wonder how long it will take until we can manipulate atoms as easily as we use the microwave. And then what? If man had the power of a god...heaven help us. ;)
- christoast, on 04/23/2009, -4/+12I've been had! And I would've gotten away with it if it hadn't been for you kids. Next time, digg.
- KalZakath, on 04/23/2009, -1/+8For its 18 microsecond lifespan, yes.
- the8thbit, on 04/23/2009, -1/+8Well, it has good cooling...
- Frankttank, on 04/23/2009, -2/+8its used for sheep herding....
/s - serif69, on 04/23/2009, -2/+8Maybe.
- emjaymj, on 04/23/2009, -0/+5A Higgs-Boson isn't a molecule.
- tanvach, on 04/23/2009, -3/+8Oh dear, that was one of the worst scientific reporting from BBC I've seen. Abstract from Nature's article is explains things much more clearly. (They have basically varified the possibility of creating such molecule from theoretical calculations).

- inactive, on 04/23/2009, -0/+4Hopefullly unprocurium will be next.
- TheUngod, on 04/23/2009, -3/+7Wow this new molecule is exciting. Or at least the Rydberg half is...
badum chi! I'll be here all week. - xMasterPx, on 04/23/2009, -1/+5Not only was it an attempt to be funny, but it was successful. Is it bad that I find this more interesting than the Rydberg molecule? When this sheep-dog molecule benefits our crumbling world, I'll praise Rydberg regularly. ..or, if I want to remain scientifical, you know, so I dont get unDug by "Dr." JBarefoot, spontaneously?
- FattyMagee, on 04/23/2009, -1/+4Brilliant!
- Rain12913, on 04/23/2009, -0/+3I think those who have spent millions upon millions of dollars and significant portions of their career trying to find this molecule might disagree with you.
- dsmx, on 04/23/2009, -0/+2Next is Unpronouncium
- LacanX, on 04/23/2009, -0/+2Thanks, that was much better then the article. I agree, the article did a terrible job.
- Carefullystaken, on 04/23/2009, -1/+3apparently (put on sunglasses) not elusive enough
YEAAAAAAHHHH - Remelox, on 04/23/2009, -1/+3Sad thing is, even if every one of us could have everything we wanted. If we could create our own personal perfect universes, you'd have a bunch of twits ruining it for the rest of us. Cosmic griefers.
- noumuon, on 04/23/2009, -0/+1they didn't just verify the possibility of one, they actually created the molecule. it's implied in the title and in the abstract. overall, this was a fairly well article by the standards of most scientific articles from mainstream news - even science news sites like physorg.
- Balath, on 04/23/2009, -0/+1I'm actually aware of the difference. My brain's digg-browsing mode isn't the most analytical, though. I saw "elusive" and a word meaning something that is usually small, and before I even got to "created," my brain went to "Higgs-Boson."
- warp25, on 04/24/2009, -1/+2So this is one step below the Omega molecule?
- jasdf, on 04/23/2009, -1/+2Just one step closer to perfecting anti-gravity and flying saucers.
- emjaymj, on 04/23/2009, -0/+1I was just being facetious. I actually though the same thing :)
- kouchan21, on 04/23/2009, -0/+1I explain why this is useful and I'm getting buried for a poorly reproduced meme ?
- YourNameHere1, on 04/23/2009, -0/+0The singing ruins it.... it's much better from this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pFv8CAniYQ
- christoast, on 04/24/2009, -1/+1It was just a joke making fun of the article in a different way. jbatefoot thinks I just randomly made this comment. Learn to think or just digg me down and shut the ***** up.
- tenardier, on 04/23/2009, -0/+0I have not spent a penny and I disagree with you.
- jumpjet701, on 04/23/2009, -1/+1:)
- pitdog, on 04/23/2009, -1/+1cool, now make it edible :)
- Noncentz, on 04/23/2009, -2/+1WHOOSH.... right over my head.... I gotta go pick me up a copy of THe Universe Next Door again and brush up :)
- inactive, on 04/23/2009, -2/+1So, we are still waiting for the Rack-and-Pinion Molecule -- the only substance that can polish yo-yos.
- anubis2night, on 04/23/2009, -2/+1i thought the most elusive molecule was an intelligence gene for the GOP
- Balath, on 04/23/2009, -3/+1A Higgs-Bos- Oh, a Rydberg. Wish I'd heard of that before so I could be excited.
- ivansusanin, on 04/23/2009, -4/+2ok now let's weaponize it already
- PizzaEagle, on 04/23/2009, -4/+1Can they make a shamwow out of it?
- cplusplus, on 04/23/2009, -5/+1I would like to see a diagram. (er, a real one @uptwolait)
- chupon, on 04/23/2009, -5/+1But...Will it blend?
- uptwolait, on 04/23/2009, -7/+3Here's a close up shot of it under the microscope:
