| Abstract | Join Laura and Martin on a wild ride through the milliworld and the microworld to reach the nanoworld. Along the way, they discover how small a nanometer truly is.

| Credits | Brought to you by the Lego Scanning Probe Microscope team, an EPICS project at Purdue University. The LSPM team's goal is to teach a wide audience the underlying principles driving the world-wide interest in nanotechnology by creating FLASH animations geared toward all ages and illustrating how a scanning probe microscope can be used to study objects at the nanometer scale. This animation is part of a museum exhibit developed for Children's Museums. For more information about this exhibit please visit the Lego SPM website. |

I find this very informative. It does an excellent job of portraying the necessary information to the kids without blowing them out of the water.

As a medical doctor I would prefer the showing of the exact size of RBC (7 to 8 micrometers)

How does Martin surf against the flow? The Reynolds number at that dimension would make it impossible. If Martin is the size of a red blood how big are his red blood cells?
