Abstract
What is the Universe composed of? It is remarkable that such a complicated question can be answered in a relatively straightforward, yet scientifically rigorous way. As it turns out, the incredible richness of inanimate objects and living organisms, from stars and planets to cells as fundamental units of life, can be reduced to a handful of constituent particles.
