🔬🤏 In a groundbreaking display of using a sledgehammer to crack a nut, scientists have now developed a QR code so minuscule that you need an electron microscope to read it. Because why not make a simple task like scanning a QR code as complex and inaccessible as possible? 🤷‍♂️🔍

Record-breaking microscopic QR code battle built to store our future

For those of us who weren't paying attention, over the last few years, scientists around the world have been one-upping each other in a bid to create the smallest QR code that can be reliably read. Now, Austria-based researchers have set the bar real high with a QR code so tiny, you'll need an…

Liebes #FediLZ, vor allem die aus der #ChemieEdu-Fachschaft,
mein Ziel ist es gerade, möglichst viele Chemie-Experimente auf #lowcost und #microscale umzustellen.
- Elektrolyse von Zinkiodid auf Objektträger ✅
- Titration von Natronlauge ✅
- LeChatelier mit Kohlensäure ✅
- Dichtebestimmungen ✅
- Molare Masse von Feuerzeuggas ✅
Aaaaaber:
Die Leitfähigkeit-Titration mit verkupferten Büroklammern ist mein Endgegner.
Könnt ihr mir da weiterhelfen?

I’ve not built any #Micropolis since last October, but this month I was struck by a fit of inspiration. The first of three new models is Landspeeder Court, a development of medium-rise office buildings situated on the outskirts of downtown.

This is my first attempt at a #microscale #legocastle. I’ve had “The Lego Castle Book” for a few years but didn’t feel I had the right pieces to build anything. I got creative and am happy with my result. I imagine this castle guarding a mountain pass, controlling all the traffic through for some sweet toll and tax revenue.

Five years ago exactly I was setting up my Micropolis MOCs in the Lego House Masterpiece Gallery wondering how on earth I had got there, it was very surreal. It still feels like I dreamt it!
So I’m wishing all the new exhibitors a fantastic setup day today - I know they will enjoy all the experiences that Master Builder Stuart & the team have planned for them, & they will make some great AFOL friends along the way.
PS. HOW is it 5 years ago?!

Some close-up details of my Kepler 42D Outpost now that I have finished the expansion work. I hope to be able to show this version at the Wyvern Brick Show at the end of October 😁

This is the final new section for my Kepler 42D outpost. More pics to come of the whole thing soon.

Versatile microscale robots can fold into 3D shapes and crawl

Cornell University researchers have created microscale robots less than 1 millimeter in size that are printed as a 2D hexagonal "metasheet," but with a jolt of electricity, morph into preprogrammed 3D shapes and crawl.
