The unseen world is uncovered and presented to us by Dr. Steve Gschmeissner. From tardigrades, viruses, pollen, human sperm and diatoms, Dr. Gschmeissner has used the scanning electron microscope to photograph them all. On this episode of A Journey Through Nature and Science you will experience the beauty and wonder of these images. His electron micrograph images have been used on the cover of record albums and inspired the design of clothing and furniture. The unseen world is truly full of wonder and life worth seeing.
