After a week, I now have internet again. I see we need something like 128 posts/day.
Anybody feel like spamming some text art?

I wish I could, but despite having done a brief module in it in IB physics, I don't know awfully much about particle physics.
My general understanding is as follows:
Matter is generally made of atoms. Atoms are made of electrons and nucleons.
The nucleons sit in a blob in the middle, called the nucleus. The electrons are sort of smeared around the nucleus in weird mirrored mushroom shaped regions.
I vaguely recall that the nucleons are also sort of smeared, but on a much smaller scale.
There are two types of nucleons: protons and neutrons.
Protons are positive, electrons are equally negative, and neutrons are, obviously, neutral.
Protons and neutrons are a very different type of particle to electrons. They're actually made up of other, smaller particles, called quarks.
Quarks are weird little things, which each have charges of plus or minus one or two thirds the charge of a proton or electron.
There are six types of quark: up, down, strange, charm, top and bottom.
Up quarks have a charge of plus two thirds, and down quarks have a charge of minus one third.
The others are just exotic versions of up or down quarks, with the same charges.
Each type of quark also has an antiparticle, which has equal but opposite charge.
Now, be careful! An anti-up quark (minus two thirds) is very different from a down quark (minus one third)!
With the aid of a mysterious subatomic force, quarks can stick together to form things like protons and neutrons.
To stick together properly, the particle they make has to have an integer charge.
For instance, a proton (plus one) is made of two up quarks (two times plus two thirds) and one down quark (minus one third).
Similarly, a neutron (zero) is one up quark (plus two thirds) and two down quarks (two times minus one third).
An antiproton (minus one) is two anti-up quarks (two times minus two thirds) and one anti-down quark (plus one third).
An antineutron is similarly made of the corresponding antiquarks. This explains why an antineutron is fundamentally different from a neutron, despite them having the same overall charge.
I'd like to take this opportunity to say that antimatter (matter made of antiparticles) is seriously awesome.
When it comes into contact with ordinary matter, it explodes violently, destroying them both.
When I say "violently", I don't mean like throwing potassium into water.
(Reminder, should you need it: E is energy, m is mass, and c is the speed of light: 300,000,000m/s).
So, if half a kilogram of matter meets half a kilogram of antimatter, you end up with 90,000,000,000,000,000J of energy.
I could find some silly comparison in terms of blue whales or football pitches or something, but I think it's obvious that that's a lot.
Anyway, this is besides the point. Back to pentaquarks.
A pentaquark is usually made up of four quarks and one antiquark, which can, in some configurations, produce a particle with overall integer charge.
You might note this involves matter and antimatter rubbing shoulders, which is problematic.
In fact, for a while some people thought it was impossible.
It might still be impossible; the results haven't been peer reviewed yet.
Oh, looks like I have to go suddenly. Bye.
