The ultimate scientific bamboozle! The word "atom" comes from Greek "atomos" meaning uncuttable or indivisible. Then some physicists decided to peek inside and found protons, neutrons, and electrons. And those contain quarks! The cat's shocked expression perfectly captures how Democritus would feel knowing his "indivisible" theory got absolutely shredded by particle accelerators. The atomic model has been through more revisions than a grad student's thesis!
