If you like to nerd out for a while like Tim and I do, then go google the Higgs boson particle and check it out. Once your head stops spinning from the unintelligible technical jargon you find, come back here and take a look at Tim's awesome marble design inspired by the theoretical concepts of this building block particle that exists without us even knowing it. The marble features fumed airtrap fingers reaching out for the huge and brilliant marquis opal inside. Notice the copper electroformed band that goes around the marble - that is REQUIRED to keep all of that energy bottled up inside this marble, thereby saving our universe from accidentally imploding upon itself. I'm glad Tim thought of that. Don't miss this fun gem!! Signed 'TK 14-2', indicating this is the second from this awesome series of marbles.
