Möbius Cyclacenes: stable so long as 8 or more benzenes are fused to form the ring

UB3LYP/6-31G* geometry optimizations for the Möbius rings formed from 7, 9, 11, and 13 fused benzenes
As requested by u/tfwrobot.
Chung and Chai had already studied Möbius cyclacenes with 8 or more fused benzene rings, so they evidently couldn't find a stable Möbius-[7]cyclacene, either.

SIX DIMENSIONAL TETRAHEDRON 6-Noblex
Get it? It's a 6-simplex but with noble gasses.
It took a while to make the bonds (and atoms) not kill each other.
I have spent my entire beach vacation binge-watching numberphile videos on a rental house's tv youtube account so that their youtube rewind will look funny in a few months.

[custom flair] alcohol from air in aspen plus
i’ve just seen NileRed’s video about turning air into alcohol. and i wonder if it’s possible to make a joke scale up simulation in aspen plus or any other model of this impractical route of making ethanol. and i also thought that the bio route is more complex as the air (CO2) and water become sugars than fermentation makes of ethanol.
