Happy 97th From Berkeley!

What a journey it has been! Today, you turn 97 years young, as lively and dynamic as berkelium. Did you know? Berkelium, the 97th element, was named after Berkeley, California, where it was discovered. If urban charm were an element, you’d surely be named after your hometown too, enchanting everyone with your charisma. Stay charming, stay splendid, and keep inspiring us just as the city of Berkeley has inspired atomic science. Here’s to you, our brilliant star!
