Nearly all matter in and around us is made of molecules, atoms and elementary particles.

WE are made up of elementary particles.

Baryonic matter is “normal” day-to-day ordinary run-off-the-mill matter: electrons, neutrons and protons…

Neutrons and protons form the centres of atoms.

Both protons and neutrons are made up of quarks.
