Yeah, what about the right for the Earth to identify as flat though?

What is solid?

If nucleus is expanded to the size of a fist how far are the first two electrons?

That's wrong. Electrons don't orbit atoms like that.

The actual research result involved an upper limit on the dipole moment of the electron.
"Roundness" is not a real technical term in particle physics.

Apparently that's what we get from "Science News -- Independent Journalism since 1921". Looks like the term independent means "We reserve the right to make up our own terminology if it helps with the clicks."
