Another Night on the TEM

In case you were wondering what it is I do at night in the lab, well it's this. And yes the photo I posted earlier is also from this crazy device called a Transmission Electron Microscope. Unfortunately you do actually have to operate them in the dark so I figured I would take a picture of me doing it in the dark to give you a feel for it.

 

I think the exposure time was upwards of a minute and a half. I never knew I was so good at not moving.

 

In case you missed last week's photo be sure to check it out. I posted it late on Tuesday night since I had to take the shot at night. It's another photo with me in it so you can't miss it.
