Well sure.  #2 amazes me not so much because that's how it works (altho 
that's pretty awesome), but that we can figure out how it works, and what it 
looks like. It's not like you can actually see it going. You have to have 
enough theory to deduce this by (say) mixing chemicals together and seeing 
what color they turn, and stuff like that.

I'm pretty amazed it only takes 16 years to watch long enough to see
