Chemistry is is a fundamental part of our lives It conditions our decisions and even marks our state of mind every day, which is precisely why Google pays homage today to Dmitri Mendeleev with a Doodle, the creator of the first periodic table of elements, thanks to which we now know what practically everything is made of that surrounds us.
Google with its Doodles wants to record the lives of these illustrious people on its web portal. The Mountain View giant reminds us that we must preserve the historical memory of who we are now, and above all, where we come from.
Dmitri Mendeleev, the creator of the periodic table in a Doodle
Dmitri Mendeleev was a Russian chemist who published in 1869 the first periodic table that we all know and that now goes to the story again in a new Google Doodle.
At the time Dmitri probably did not realize what he had done and the impact it would have on future generations, but he formulated a tool so important that it has come down to today only with some modifications.
The progress of this table for his time was masterful. Even left the gaps for some chemical elements that were still unknown at that time, since the technological advances that we have now did not exist.
At only 23 years old, he became course manager at the University of St. Petersburg and obtained a scholarship that allowed him to access another of the most prestigious, Heidelberg, where he met a large number of famous chemists who assured that he would be one of the most brilliant minds of the time
Dmitri Mendeleyev has left us a great legacy and now Google is returning part of that piece of history through this new Doodle on its 182nd anniversaryWe all hope that Google publishes many more, the work for humanity of this type of people deserves it.
What do you think of Google's tribute to Dmitri Mendeleev with a Doodle?
