This is my favorite video by them, i just love the color of liquid oxygen, it's like looking at the sky, but in a beaker....

if ozone is heavier than oxygen then why is it in the ozone layer above us. Why doesn't it come down.

first of all gases don't tend to arrange themselves according to density because their is a lot fo wind and such. for example nitrogen is lighter than oxygen slightly but both are mixed in the same atmosphere. secondly ozone decomposes within about half an hour at lower altitudes what tends to happen is as it sinks into our atmosphere it decomposes and oxygen from our atmosphere can also go up and be converted to ozone. you can smell small amounts of ozone after lightning storms.

or you can smell it after being around a jacobs ladder

I suppose tomandjj could be correct as well, but im pretty sure since ozone absorbs uv-light it's molecules become more energetic, thus less dense than oxygen, so it rises...
