Answer:

Books are mediums to preserve an author's thoughts, experiences, and creativity for generations. Authors leave a piece of themselves behind on every page. In the timeline of history, the art of writing fictional stories is relatively very young, which is why it is still evolving at a rapid pace. But despite its young age, fiction is critical to society, and the pursuit of knowledge. It allows us to create social commentary as well as explore the otherwise untouchable. To leave a record of what we imagined the future to be, of what inspired us, of what we found fantastical or absurd or strange, is to write a letter to the future. "This is us, this is who we are, how we see the world, and what we wish we could change" – this is the message we are sending to future generations. And in each individual book, the author leaves a very specific piece of today – a piece of them, who they are, and what they wish they could change. Fiction isn't only for pleasure, it is the abstract expression of all kinds of thoughts that we otherwise keep hidden away – thoughts that, if not written down, could be lost forever.

exactly 200 words, a passionate rant about the relevance of fiction :)

An atom is the smallest unit of ordinary matter that forms a chemical element. Every solid, liquid, gas, and plasma is composed of neutral or ionized atoms. Atoms are extremely small, they usually are around the size of 100 picometers across. They are so small that accurately predicting their behavior using something called classical physics, if they were tennis balls, for example, It wouldn't be possible for them to exist due to quantum physics. Every atom is composed of a nucleus and one or more electrons bound to the nucleus. The nucleus is made of one or more protons and a number of neutrons. Only the most common variety of hydrogen has no neutrons. More than 99.94% of an atom's mass is in the nucleus. The protons have a positive electric charge, the electrons have a negative electric charge, and the neutrons have no electric charge. If the number of protons and electrons are equal, then the atom is electrically neutral. If an atom has more or fewer electrons than protons, then it has an overall negative or positive charge, FYI these kind of atoms are called "Ions"
