Hey guys! We’re now live on Spotify 🎧 Listen here: https://open.spotify.com/show/033QsBk689x7SU40qml570?si=BBUMkJb2SJCXRKWLZ7_TEA Crystals form when atoms arrange themselves into precise repeating patterns — a process that can take seconds or millions of years depending on conditions. This session explores crystal science: how snowflakes form their six-sided symmetry, how gemstones develop under pressure, and what the crystal structure of common materials like salt and quartz can tell us about chemistry at the atomic scale. Perfect for: chemistry and geology fans, visual science lovers, calming sleep. #CrystalFacts #MineralScience #SleepyScience #GemologyFacts #ChemistryFacts
