Hey you know that regarding the depiction of the electrons that's actually a very bad representation of nature.
You have to think of it as an Electron having many different possible locations, some more likely than others, every time you take a measurement you'll see the Electron at one of these possible places. Example (Wikipedia) The picture is at different angles/energy levels:
Hydrogen atom orbitals at different energy levels. The more opaque areas are where one is most likely to find an electron at any given time.Physics actually goes a lever deeper still with Quantum Field Theory being a thing, wherein everything is essentially a wave (formally excitations of the field) interfering with other waves in our universe, in which the electron is just an excitation of the electron field (informally wave) (which solves having to say that an electron doesn't have a position only a possible location, because that's data a wave encodes [if that's not clear draw a wave and compare that to the above picture])
