Video: Chirality in Nature

Did you know that some molecules have a "left-handed" and "right-handed" version? In the world of molecular physics and chemistry, this is called Chirality. A chiral molecule is one that cannot be superimposed on its mirror image, no matter how much you rotate it. The best way to visualize this is by looking at your own hands. Your left and right hands are mirror images of each other, but you cannot perfectly stack your right hand on top of your left with both palms facing down. These mirror-ima
