This channel wouldn’t be what it is if it weren’t for one very key invention: the microscope. Everything we see, we see with the aid of light and lenses, expertly deployed by our master of microscopes, James. And if you’ve been on this journey from the beginning, or if you’ve ever gone back to revisit our earlier videos, you may have noticed that things have changed a bit around here.

The store looks so wonderful. Visually speaking. Hope I will get a microscope from there soon. By the way it will be really great if we have an interview with James where Hank will be the host. Most probably I am not the only one who desires it sooo badly!! Greetings to Journey to the Microcosmos team.

@Zunderfeuer 4 месяца назад

Me watching this video, trying to rekindle my love for using my for me expensive enough little microscope (400.-) and seeing his type of microscope model going up for 35.000.- from Zeiss :-o God it is so hard not to compare yourself with this kind of stuff.

@Bolt6265 2 года назад

Yknow I've always wanted to see a microscope that can somehow do like a lightfield in realtime so the entire depth can be in focus simultaneously because the most annoying thing about microscopy is the incredibly shallow DOF and constantly having to adjust focus.

@SeaJay_Oceans 2 года назад

There is a software based digital camera that can do exactly as you say - I forget the name of it, but it basically gives you 100% DOF by processing all of the captured light and focusing all of it (computationally) so that the final image is ALL crystal clear. Not exactly 'real time' but very close, a few miliseconds delay as Billions of circuits transform data form one form to another, and produce for you, the detailed image for your analog eyes!

@benmcreynolds8581 2 года назад

I totally agree. When I got into really up close macro photography I learned about just how shallow depths of feilds can get for different lenses or how your lense works with your sensor of your camera. So ya it would be great to see like a triple or quad stacked layer machine that puts all the depths of feilds into one continuous image.

This was a very nice and visually interesting journey of your group's progress in photographing the aquatic micro-world. The new Zeiss microscope was money well spent for your teaching abilities. However, tell James that the excellent picture of his rotifer in 36:03 to 36:30 is not a Keratella. It is a closely related loricated rotifer called Lepadella; probably Lepadella ovalis.

@SaronJoy 11 месяцев назад

It's all about perspective. Microscopes look down onto/into the microbial world, a real "birds-eye view". I think about us humans being viewed just from above. It's not until you come down to our level and face us, that you get a true understanding of what we look like. I can't wait until someone invents a Microscope whose optics peer directly at microbial life on their level... something akin to a side-microscope. Until then, we can only imagine.

@ktl4539 Год назад

Are you ever going to go to superresolution or get down to the molecular scale? What molecules are involved and what are they doing? PSI, PSIi, antenna proteins for instance. Yes the videos are awesome and beautiful but getting into the Why? Of what is giving rise to the colored structures could really inspire a lot of the viewers to pursue the deep molecular science behind the images. Maybe bring a structural biologist into the mix? Love the footage!!

@alan2here 2 года назад

Enlarging a square mm to 10cm yields 1 megapixel (1k), and requires a million times zoom (1,000,000x). Requiring 4k still only limits you to 60,000x.

@Shadowfax2121 2 года назад

You guys really ought to do a collaboration with "Matt Powers - The Permaculture Student" - He is researching soil based microbes and fungi in an attempt to improve agriculture and gardening practices.

@barbarahouk1983 2 года назад

This review highlights the facts of how our senses work. The microscopes extend the human sense of light images upon the compound receptors we call the eye. I am a retired psychiatrist (MD), who has been fascinated by the human as a machine as well as a spiritual being. How a human learns is just one of the many aspects that has kept my attention. All learning is done by comparison. The human does not see what exactly is. The human brain builds upon comparisons. The goal is to get a representation as close to reality as possible. Reality is that which exists beyond one's receptors (senses). Often a mistake can be made in interpretation of stimulus; this is called an illusion. So with the microscope and the different techniques, one can get different views. This information has to be integrated. Integration is what the human mind uses to understand the environment. The closer to reality is the goal.

@Spacecomber 4 месяца назад

I enjoyed your video and your presentation of how the optics involved can enhance what can be seen through a microscope. One thing that I might have given a bit more attention to is how limited the depth of field is under a microscope’s high magnification. It tends to create the impression that microorganisms are relatively flat, when in fact we are seeing a cross section of a largely transparent object. We learn to compensate for this by shifting the focus up an down a tiny bit, essentially trying to create a an imaginary “stacked image” in our mind’s eye of the organisms more 3-dimensional shape. Very few of will ever get the chance to use the most sophisticated optics, such as DIC, to observe that 3-dimensionality more directly. But, for most of the history of the study of microorganisms, a bright field microscope and an artistic talent provided the content for our textbooks.

@TedToal_TedToal 2 года назад

How about photographing in shorter wavelengths, such as far UV, and translating the image into colors we can see, like astronomers do. Is that done? How about simultaneously recording data at a variety of magnifications, at a very high sampling rate, and composing a database that can be explored in VR to visit and revisit different aspects of the organism?

@stephenchallener9824 2 года назад

You can do higher res imaging with UV vs visible light but it is challenging (even aside from obvious safety issues) because most glasses absorb UV. You basically need every lens and bit of glass in your system to be made of specialized materials.

Love the comment, 'If you've ever taken an Optics course - you will remember how terrible that was!'. - Oh yes - and some more! The problem was that first time around, it all just didn't make any sense. For me, it took years, gradually refining my knowledge until finally I came to appreciate just how incredible the whole subject is - and the maths is mind-blowing. Sadly, as a Physics student, I never got to see images like these, but I did eventually work with neurons and would so love to see them via these techniques.
