Not necessarily an expert, but I do have some comments. &gt; Niels Bohr proposed that electrons don&#x27;t have enough energy to radiate away, and thus are forced to continue to spin around the nucleus.[0] This was the seed that fruited the quantization of energy and eventually our modern understanding of Quantum Mechanics.
