After all , a buckyball is very tiny , and the universe is very big .
毕竟,布基球异常微小,而宇宙又是如此浩渺。
The carbon molecule known as a buckyball , a member of the fullerene family , can act as a cage for a variety of other chemicals .
被称为“巴克球”的碳分子,是“富勒烯”结构家族中的一员,它能像“笼子”一样隔离许多化学物质。
Scientists hope to replicate the buckyball experiment someday using a virus , which is not only far bigger but also considered by some to be a living thing .
