From here to eCernity

Up at the bottom the strangeness of quarks
at the debutant party they carry on.

Excitedly neutral electron-volt sparks
Have revealed the shy xi-b baryon.

Strings and bathing

Archimedes --remember, that guy with the bath --
started things off that today call for math
most advanced; it's one of the hardest of things
to comprehend how it's all made out of strings.

Knee and Her

Humanity is some (not all)
related to neanderthal;
other branches seemed to fall
but don't expect it all to stall
or hit some existential wall;
we may soon find we're just a small
percentage of a greater all.

Fossils d'nae?

Sapiens, neanderthal;
those ancient folks went rovin'.
Wandered here and wandered there;
and some were Denisovan.

Subatomic Semiotics

Quantum entanglement
muons and gluons,
krypton, the theory of games.
That's the thing about math and science:
they're the sources of all the best names.
