40) 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.
41) Atomic Weight of Bromine (Br) = 79.904
Bromine is the only liquid nonmetallic element. It is a member of the halogen group.

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.

51) 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."

Of Nature trusts the mind which builds for aye."

Three interesting articles in Nature 80:

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.

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.

Sigmund Freud (1856-1939), Austrian neurologist, father of psychoanalysis.
He writes about his 80th birthday celebration (1936): "What is the
secret meaning of celebrating the big round numbers of one's life? Surely
a measure of triumph over the transitoriness of life, which, as we never
forget, is ready to devour us. Then one rejoices with a sort of communal
feeling that we are not made of such frail stuff as to prevent one of us
victoriously resisting the hostile effects of life for 60, 70, or even 80 years."

Freud in fact resists until 83.

In Berlin, on a Jewish holiday, Nazi officials invaded a synagogue

the Rabbi answered, "There you will find our hidden arms, the only weapons
the Jews possess." The verdict of the centuries is with these Rabbis.
