Educate me
Seriously. Watch this and then explain something to the curious mind.
Cool ass "movie" that you may have seen before.
So I randomly decided to look up "quarks" on Wikipedia after the clip ended. The way the movie was filmed left me unsatisfied that we couldn't look deeper by another exponential power. Since theoretically Infinity exists, I'd argue/assume that Infinitesmal also exists(or "Infinitly Close" if you prefer).
So anyway, I go to the "quarks" section in Wiki. I've heard of them before, but Theoretical Partical Physics isn't exactly my bag. Suddenly I'm reading about gluons, hadrons, baryons, fermions and leptons, just to name a few. Anyone here understand this shit? I want to see an expoential level deeper that shows what these things really look like. I demand a bigger microscope! Maybe some things just weren't meant to be seen by us.

Antiquarks are either "anti-red", "anti-green" or "anti-blue". Like colors repel, unlike colors attract. The attraction between a color and its anti-color is especially strong. Particles can only exist if their total color is neutral (commonly referred to as a color singlet), meaning that they can either be composed of a (anti-)red, (anti-)green and (anti-)blue quark (such a particle is called a baryon; protons and neutrons are examples), or of a quark and an anti-quark having the corresponding anti-color (such a particle is called a meson). |
What the fuck is this shit?
