• The planets only appear to reverse course; in reality, they travel forward at all times.

• The table in front of you only appears to be solid; in reality, it is made up of molecules that are made up of atoms that are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons. The table is mostly empty space!

• Protons and neutrons only appear to be solid particles; in reality, they are composed of quarks and other elementary particles.

• Cells only appear to be simple gelatinous bricks; in reality, they are astonishingly complex bio-chemical factories composed of thousands of intricate parts and processes.
