Carbon In The Form Of Diamonds,

might be a girls best friend,

but carbon in the form of endohedral fullerene is the most expensive, created last year by British scientists in an Oxford University lab it is now made in sufficient quantities for sale, how much is it? well if you have to ask you can not afford it, to you just £100 million ($150 million) per gram, see I said you could not afford it!, this fullerene, with 60 carbon atoms, is also called Buckminsterfullerene or ‘bucky-ball’ because of its unusual shape, it has several important applications it is being used to create a small, portable atomic clock that will be the most accurate time-keeping system in the world, it could also help make GPS navigation more accurate to 1mm in self-driving cars, but you had better be quick, the lab recently made its first sale, 200mcg of the bucky-ball, it went for £22,000.
