I thought that we'd been able to see quarks already. :/

OT: Yeah, pretty cool. I learned what a yoctometer is!

And not only is it amazing about how bit things are, but how small they are as well. I had no idea that a piece of human DNA was that small.

Same here except it's on the big side. All this scientific notation is getting quite annoying for me.

We can't see them, but we have managed to prove their existence via the LHC.
