How this doesn't have more views is beyond me. Great job and great trivia too.

[@kennethbefus]

Thank you. I'm impressed how many people have found it so far. I'm glad it helps.

Thank you so much. My final is coming up and my teacher did a really poor job of explaining this. This channel will be my saving grace

[@kennethbefus]

Thank you for the meaningful compliment. I wish you the best on that exam.

[@yunghxrris]

jesus dude, crazy how my PhD holding professor couldnt make their content even half as interesting and explanatory than this, thank you

GREAT LECTURE… btw in the 2-fold axis of rotation, the lower comma should be pointing in the opposite direction (to the right)

[@kennethbefus]

Thanks. sorry about the lower comma.

[@olamaher9880]

great explanation.
please, can you tell me what is the textbook you used?

[@kennethbefus]

Great question. Klein and Dutrow's Manual of Mineral Science (23rd edition).
