As an even poorer look-upper of shit online, Wikipedia says that it is widely used as a catalyst for palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions. That’s as far as my look-uppification gets me with this one.

Can anyone help a poor physicist understand this very chemical meme? 😅

Let's pretend I understand the chemistry part... could somebody explain the biblically accurate angel part?

Hers a fair explanation, but in short there are different kinds of angels described in the abrahamic texts, and only some of them resemble the classical “human with a pair of wings” depiction. Many wings, many eyes, chimeric heads, elemental fire and light, and non-biological (to our understanding) forms are among the features of those depictions.

You literally posted the explanation. It’s a meme where an angel with a bunch of eyeballs or something says don’t be afraid and the person says this is the scariest moment of my life or something.
