Illustration — a map of Iran and Persian Gulf, with the nuclear insignia of electrons in orbit around the atom on the middle of the map. Written on the back of the map in Arabic script is a quote that can be translated as 'If the science exists in this constellation, men from Persia will reach it' or alternatively 'Persians would acquire any knowledge even if it is in the sky' (i.e. seemingly unachievable). The quote is a saying (Hadith) from the Prophet Mohammed (PBUH).
