Abstract
This image is a representation of an atom of hydrogen. The cage represents some of the pathways of the electron, seen here shining in purple, as it exists in the 1s orbital. The electron spins around the tiny nucleus containing a proton (not to scale). The color was chosen to match the color of hydrogen plasma.
