Atomic Number of
Mercury (Hg) = 80 (80 protons & 80 electrons) Mercury is the only common metal liquid at ordinary temperatures. Mercury is sometimes called quicksilver. It rarely occurs free in nature and is found mainly in cinnabar ore (HgS) in Spain and Italy. It's a heavy, silvery-white liquid metal, and a rather poor conductor of heat as compared with other metals but is a fair conductor of electricity. It alloys easily with many metals, such as gold, silver, and tin. These alloys are called amalgams. Its ease in amalgamating with gold is made use of in the recovery of gold from its ores. The physical appearance of mercury is well known because of its use in thermometers. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Atomic Weight of
Bromine (Br) = 79.904 Bromine is the only liquid nonmetallic element. It is a member of the halogen group. It is a heavy, volatile, mobile, dangerous reddish-brown liquid. The red vapour has a strong unpleasant odour and the vapour irritates the eyes and throat. It is a bleaching agent. When spilled on the skin it produces painful sores. Bromine also occurs in seawater as the sodium salt but in much smaller quantities than chloride. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Messier M80 is a fine 8th mag globular galaxy. Its 10' angular diameter
corresponds to roughly 95 light years linear dimension at its distance of 27,400
light years. Its appearance resembles very much that of a comet. This dense stellar
swarm contains several 100,000s of stars, held together by their mutual gravitational
attraction. It is one of the densest globulars in our Milky Way Galaxy. As was found
by astronomers from observations with the Hubble Space Telescope in 1999 in the visible
and UV part of the electromagnetic spectrum, M80 contains a large number of so-called
"Blue Stragglers" in its core, about twice as much as any other globular investigated
with the HST. Globular cluster M80 was one of the original discoveries of Charles Messier,
who found it on January 4, 1780, and cataloged it as a "Nebula without a star...
resembling the nucleus of a comet." William Herschel was the first to resolve it
(before 1785), and found it was "one of the richest and most compressed clusters of
small stars I remember to have seen."

Volume 80 of Nature (1909) A Weekly Illustrated Journal of Science was published by Macmillan & Co., London (March to June 1909), pp. 1-480 Wordsworth epigraph on cover: "To the solid ground Of Nature trusts the mind which builds for aye." Three interesting articles in Nature 80: 1) Andrew C. Lawson, "The California Earthquake of 1906" Nature 80, 10-11 (March 4, 1909): This is a summary of the "Report of the State Earthquake Investigation Commission" (Carnegie Institution, Washington, 1908). Fig. 1 shows the rift features south-east of Fort Ross. Fig. 2 shows ponds along rift near San Benito. 2) John G. McKendrick, "The Gramophone as a Phonautograph" Nature 80, 188-191 (April 15, 1909) It is well know that during the last few years the gramophone (invented by Berliner in 1887), in is more complete and expensive forms, has been so much improved as to have completely eclipsed the phonograph. It is now an instrument that not only records pitch and intensity, but also quality to a surprising degree, so that one can listen to orchestral music in which the quality of each musical instrument is rendered with much fidelity, and also to the fine voices of many of the most celebrated vocalists of the day... An inspection of the curves so obtained of a voice or of an orchestra only makes the performance of a gramophone more wonderful and more difficult to understand. We see a long series of waves of various forms which the eye cannot follow; but when these waves appeal to the ear, then music starts into life. Each sense has its own beat. 3) Frederick Soddy, "The Production of Radium from Uranium" Nature 80, 308-309 (May 13, 1909): I have now been able to establish the production of radium in all the solutions of very carefully purified uranyl nitrate prepared by Mr. T. D. Mackensie and myself... That the initial rate of production of radium from uranium should vary according to the square of the time was deduced mathematically by Rutherford on the assumption that there was only one intermediate substance of period of life long compared with the time of the experiment in the uranium-radium series. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The Eighty Years' War
or Dutch Revolt from 1568 to 1648 was the secession war in which the proto-Netherlands first became an independent country. In 1568, William The Silent of Orange led the revolt against King Philip II of Spain who ruled the low countries. Philip sent the Duke of Alva to crush the rebellion. In spite of Philip's death in 1598 the war went on. In the last 30 years the 80 Years' War coincides with the Thirty Years' War. German emperial troops helped the Spaniards and the German protestants were supported by the Dutch Republic. On January 30, 1648, the war ended with the Treaty of Münster, which was part of the Peace of Westphalia that also ended the Thirty Years' War. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
