The medieval alchemist vs. modern physicist showdown is pure gold (pun intended)! While basic chemistry says "no way" to transmuting lead into gold, particle physicists are like "hold my accelerator." The meme brilliantly contrasts Dalton's outdated atomic theory with modern nuclear physics, where we can actually transform lead (²⁰⁸Pb) into gold (²⁰³Au) through nuclear reactions—you just need a casual Large Hadron Collider, no big deal. The bell curve shows most people stuck in the middle with average understanding, while both the blissfully ignorant and the quantum physics nerds arrive at the same conclusion for wildly different reasons. Medieval alchemists were right for the wrong reasons!
Alchemy Is Real (Just Need A Particle Accelerator)
