Creating a buckyball molecule, conceptual computer artwork. Buckyball molecule in laboratory glassware. This might represent research into, or production of, buckyball molecules. A buckyball, or buckminsterfullerene, is a structurally distinct form (allotrope) of carbon. It has 60 carbon atoms arranged in a spherical structure consisting of interlinking hexagonal and pentagonal rings.
