This is pretty amazing. I have a random shower thought about the headline at this point.
Microscopes are any device that can see things smaller than what we can manage with our own eyes.. But that range has become extremely massive. It's to the point where I'd really like a new set of terms for scopes based on the magnification levels.
With this microscope, we hope the scientific community can understand the quantum physics behind how an electron behaves and how an electron moves.
Since I am totally ignorant, what's the practical benefit of this?
Each time we peer into the quantum world we do a shit load of what is called Fundamental Research. This fundamental research leads to new discoveries in our understanding of quantum physics which then leads on to commercial research to apply these new discoveries to engineer new things.
What this new tool does is unlock a whole new batch of fundamental research that can be done which in turn will advance what we can build on top of it.
It may or may not have one, at least until we observe the results
But observing results skews results! Checkmate scientists
Replicators and world peace.
Replicators with subscription plans, depending on product classes and value and WW3.
So a simple Tea-Machine will cost you 15 Bucks/m but a cocktail mixer 4500,-
Argh, no images?
I really wanted to see the electrons.
