Belgium engineer André Waterkeyn and his architect brothers-in-law André and Jean Polak built The Atomium. It was the main pavilion and landmark of the Expo ’58, the 1958 Brussels World’s Fair
It is 102 meters (335 ft) tall and 18 meters (59 ft) in diameter and weighs around 2,400 tonnes. Each of the nine spheres is constructed from steel and are connected together by a solid steel structure. The spheres are coated in aluminium....
