Description Hehe, I got a kick out of this one I've to explain the story behind it.
So this week I've had like two and a half chemistry tests, and a lot of studying for them, so as is necessary, I've been staring at the periodic table for a total of multiple hours. Then, during one of the tests, I realized that N (nitrogen), O (oxygen) and F (fluorine) are all right next to each other in a row. Then, I remembered that that's the first 3 letters of NOFX!
Now, NOFX is a punk rock band I'm only a little familiar with, but I could pass up the opportunity to make a humorous band logo by combining nitrogen, oxygen, fluorine, and xenon. That's actually impossible because xenon is a stable noble gas.
And I figured it out! Take away the impossible xenon, and N, O, and F all bond with one of each- no subscripts necessary, so the equation is, in fact NOF being bombarded with a particle of Xe travelling at near light speed!

So, as a result, we have nitrous fluoroxide +xenon... or something

I am such a nerd, I love chemistry I don't know why I'm saying this all in artist's comments...

It's alright. NOFX is a great band. Sort of pop-punk-ish, but I love them. And please sir, for fear of a name, Don't call me White. (NOFX song...by the way.)

sorry but i must tell you that Oxygen, Fluorine and Nitrogen will never bond in nature. You would get a chemical called Fluorine-Nitride Oxidase. That of course is impossible. Also, accelerating Xenon near the speed of light would be almost impossible due to its enormous mass relative to hydrogen. so...you fail.

Yeah I know... it was kind of a joke. or a false hope of my imagination. Thanks though!

Wow man...chemical formula of PUNK ROCK...that's probably the best combination ever....

really dig the picture though

or a 0.5M solution of Nitrous Flouroxide gas mixed with 1M xenon gas...lol the chemistry symbols attracted me to this piece.
