GREAT SITES ! Each day, you can visit the site and see what happened that day in the history of chemistry. Go look, and let me know what you think about it !

 

Example : Today 10 may 2005

 

In 1860, the discovery of the element caesium was announced by German chemists, Robert Bunsen and Gustav Robert Kirchoff to the Berlin Academy of Scientists. It was first noticed by its characteristic blue spectral lines, for which colour is was named.

Neat! This one should be stickied.

Today Louis-Nicolas Vauquelin would be 242 years old :D (He's born in 1763) He has discovered chromium (Cr, element 24) and beryllium (Be, 4). I found that imprtant enough to let you know !!!
