Storistir

Description: What would a hydrogen butterfly panda look like? This is, of course, a whimsical design. Hydrogen is a small and mighty element. Our sun fuses approximately 6 million tons of hydrogen per second, making mostly helium.

Description: Litted lamb is not a good sleeper, so it is wonderful when Litted sleeps. This artwork is based on the illustrated story of Mary and Litted, which is part of the Storistir Periodic Table of Elements and Poems, a book inspired by Periodic Table science. The story of Mary and Litted can be viewed on the Storistir channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFlBDfwRZP1-uq1dAbGSV1A). Enjoy!

Description: “Bore on! Bore on! Bore on!” shouted Mole, selecting wurtzite for milling and drilling the next hole. Mole knows boron compounds are hard, although it's unlikely wurtzite would be used for such a drill given its cost and rarity. Mole will "bore on" and get the task done, working carefully and cheerfully.

Description: It's a Neon party - elemental style! Neon can light up the night, but only the reddish glow is truly neon.

Description: Growing carbon can be a healthy, beautiful, relaxing pastime--lol!

Description: A simple message from a beautiful element.

Description: The Carbon poem is an excerpt from the Storistir Periodic Table of Elements Stories & Poems book. You can listen to some of the element poems at https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFlBDfwRZP1-uq1dAbGSV1A. Artwork in Redbubble may be modified from those in the storybook to appear better for products.

Description: Yup, there's hydrogen in green clovers. Hope this one brings someone good luck!

Description: The poetry for Beryllium is in the form of a haiku or rather three consecutive haikus. Beryllium is a very light, tough, carcinogenic metal. Berylliosis is a form of metal poisoning. Bertrandite is an ore of beryllium. More illustrations along with facts and factoids that inspired this poem can be found in the illustrated Storistir storybook of Mary and Litted.

Description: A "Be" request in a very conflicted world.

Description: Mary's heli-lamb (helium) is in trouble again! Helium is an inert noble gas that does not bond, unlike ox-engine (oxygen), which will bond with pretty much all elements except noble gases. Even though the Storistir Periodic Table stories and poems describe elements, they are also stories. The first 10 poems illustrate Mary's love for her lamb and the trust built through her lamb's escapades.

Description: Stars like our sun make many elements, although not every known element has been detected in stars. All 118 elements including the man-made ones are listed in this design (in no particular order). Can you find your favorite element?

Description: Hydrogen may be the smallest element, but it is mighty! Hydrogen is lighter than air and provides lift. But watch out! The Hindenburg, roughly the size of the Titanic, and was powered and destroyed by hydrogen!

Description: There are definitely many things to be, even for the lightest alkaline earth metal. No wonder Storistir is tired--lol!

Description: The sun is constantly fusing hydrogen to make mostly helium and other elements. This artwork represents element 1, hydrogen, and is based on the illustrated story of Mary and Litted, which is part of the Storistir Periodic Table of Elements and Poems, a book inspired by Periodic Table science.The story can be viewed on the Storistir channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFlBDfwRZP1-uq1dAbGSV1A). Enjoy!

Description: It feels good to express some things with the lightest Alkaline Earth Metal.

Description: You and I contain carbon as do plants, animals, and chocolates! We don't have too much carbon--some are just in the wrong place for a balanced cycle. Carbon or "car bonbons" in the Storistir book can be delicious!

Description: Fluorine is an element that should be handled with care! Fluorine is extremely reactive, and in its elemental / gaseous form, it can burn through sand, metal, brick, and glass. Fluorine has killed and maimed scientists seeking to isolate this element. Yet, for all its dangers as an element, its compounds are very stable since it takes a lot of energy to break its bonds once formed.

Description: Helium-4 is the most abundant isotope on Earth with 2 protons and 2 neutrons. Storistir Periodic Table of Elements and Poems, a book inspired by Periodic Table science, uses 4 heli-lambs making computer chips and checking leaks on ships to describe Helium-4. The story can be viewed on the Storistir channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFlBDfwRZP1-uq1dAbGSV1A). Enjoy!

Description: The noble gases are colorless, inert, and odorless. Oganesson is in this family, but it may be a solid at standard conditions, not a gas.

Description: Have fun with Beryllium on the light, carcinogenic side, just like the element!

Description: It's a work in progress! It's funny what an alkaline earth metal symbol can inspire.

Description: The poetry for element 1 is based on William Blake’s The Tyger. Hi-Dragon personifies hydrogen and our sun. The graphic is based on the illustrated story of Mary and Litted, which is part of the Storistir Periodic Table of Elements and Poems, a book inspired by Periodic Table science. The story can be viewed on the Storistir channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFlBDfwRZP1-uq1dAbGSV1A). Enjoy!

Description: This holiday design is added to elements to brighten the season. Oganesson is part of the Group 18 noble gas family, although it is predicted to be a solid rather than a gas at room temperature.

Description: Beryllium is not a perfect metal, and can cause damage to the lungs. Yet, for all its flaws, it is a heck of an element.

Description: Be loving with the Beryllium symbol of this alkaline earth metal.

Description: Oganesson is part of the Group 18 noble gas family, although it is predicted to be a solid rather than a gas at room temperature. Oganesson, like most of the man-made elements, is very short-lived.

Description: Beryl Lamb moves fast, fast, fast in the Storistir Periodic Table story as element 4. Hopefully, we don't need to be reminded too often to be active.

Description: Helium is in the balloon! The graphic is based on a character in the illustrated story of Mary and Litted, which is part of the Storistir Periodic Table of Elements and Poems, a book inspired by Periodic Table science. The story can be viewed on the Storistir channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFlBDfwRZP1-uq1dAbGSV1A). Enjoy!

Description: Artificial General Intelligence (AGI) and Artificial Super Intelligence (ASI)--we may be getting close, based on recent blinks in technology and time. If nothing else, AI is definitely here and the ride is about to get faster. Will seek more optimistic thoughts, but right now, it does make one reflect.

Description: Be helpful with the Beryllium symbol and enjoy the Be symbol of this alkaline earth metal.

Description: Tennessine is part of the Halogen family. Oak Ridge National Laboratory provided the Berkelium (element 97) to Russia where it was deposited on a film of titanium and blasted by a beam of Calcium (element 20). Tennessine (element 97+20=117) was discovered through teamwork, sharing, and collaboration.

Description: The orbitals are swirling in Storistir to make holiday ornaments! Californium, element 98, was named after the University of California Radiation Laboratory in California, a state that is home to the tallest trees (Redwoods), widest trees (Sequoias) and oldest trees (Bristlecones). Californium is a strong neutron emitter used in portable detectors to find corrosion, bad welds, cracks, oil layers, precious metal ores, etc.

Description: Be courteous with the Beryllium symbol and enjoy the Be symbol of this alkaline earth metal.

Description: Element 101 was named in honor of Dmitri Mendeleev, known for his contributions to the Periodic Table of Elements, which came to him in a dream. It's amazing what sleep can do!

Description: Beryl is a beryllium ore that comes in many colors, depending on the impurities. Beryl is used for emerald, acquamarine, and other jewelry. Red beryl is considered one of the world's rarest gemstones.
