The rally monkey came to national and world-wide attention during the Angels' appearance in the 2002 World Series, again against the San Francisco Giants. In the sixth game, the Angels were playing at home, but were trailing the series 3-2 and facing elimination.
Previously, polystyrene was the largest stable synthetic molecule, at 40 million hydrogen masses. To create their molecular giant, SchlÃ¼ter and his colleagues started with standard polymerisation, in which smaller molecules join up to form a long chain.
Polymers are molecules that consist of a long, repeating chain of smaller units called monomers. They have the highest molecular weight among any molecules, and may consist of billions of atoms.Human DNA is a polymer with over 20 billion constituent atoms.Proteins, made up of amino acids, and many other molecules that make up life are polymers. They are the largest and most diverse class of known molecules and even include plastics.uman DNA is a polymer with over 20 billion constituent atoms.
