The Periodic Table Table
Season 4 Episode 39 | 5m 39s
We explore the science and chemistry going on inside Theo Gray's periodic table table.
Step into his office, and you'll see a silicon disc engraved with Homer Simpson, a jar of mercury, uranium shells and thousands of other chemical artifacts. But his real DIY masterpiece is the world's first "periodic table table." Within this masterfully constructed table-top lay samples of nearly every element known to man, minus the super-radioactive ones.
