Editing Chiral (section)

Something which is chiral is not symmetric about its own center. Its mirror image is asymmetric. The example often used to demonstrate this concept is one's own hand: 
Rotating one's own hand 180° does not return it to the original shape. The thumb and the pinky trade places and the front is distinct from the back.
