In 1985 Richard Smalley, Robert Curl, James Heath, Sean O’Brien, and Harold Kroto at Rice University discovered Buckyballs. Buckyballs are made from 60 Carbon atoms and is similar in structure to graphite, which is composed of stacked graphene sheets of linked hexagonal rings. They are named after Richard Buckminster Fuller, whose geodesic domes it resembles.

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of the discovery of the buckyball, Google have created a logo.

The Nano Show has been accepted as one of the science shows at this years RDS Science Live Demonstration Lecture series. This support will allow Science Ireland to create this amazing new show.

The RDS Science Live Demonstration Lecture series involves funding science communicators to develop high quality workshops that are aimed at those in primary and secondary school. All of Science Ireland shows have been developed with support from the RDS Science Live Demonstration Lecture series.

The Nano Show will now move from planning stage to development and testing. The first show will be given in September 2010.
