Jan 22, 2013 at 0:35 comment added user21349 @Chris Gerig: The probability that the electron is inside the nucleus isn't relevant to the stability of hydrogen.
Jan 21, 2013 at 20:14 comment added Chris Gerig Quick clarification: the accepted answer I believe is for a collection of atoms. But for a single Hydrogen atom, the stability pretty much arises from the Schrodinger solution... you can calculate that the probability the electron will reside inside the nucleus is a nonzero but very small percentage.
