00:00None. Let's talk about something both explosive and essential.
00:04Hydrogen. Hydrogen was discovered by Henry Cavendish in 1766.
00:09It's the very first element on the periodic table, with an atomic number of 1 and an atomic mass of about 1.008.
00:17This means it's incredibly light and super abundant. Physically, it's a colorless, odorless gas.
00:23Chemically, it loves to bond, especially with oxygen to create water.
00:27But did you know it's also used to fuel rockets?
00:30That's right. Hydrogen's explosive potential powers space exploration.
00:35And it doesn't stop there.
00:37Hydrogen is key in producing ammonia for fertilizers, helping to feed the world.
00:42Plus, it's a clean energy source in fuel cells, offering a glimpse into a greener future.
00:46So next time you sip water or hear about rockets, remember, it's all thanks to hydrogen.
00:51Stay curious and keep exploring.
