FROM MICRO TO MACROCOSMOS .

2. This is a trip at high speed, jumping distances by factor of 10.
Start with 100 equivalent to 1 meter, and increasing sizes by factor of 10s ,or 101 (10 meters), 102 (10x10 = 100 meters, 103 (10x10x10 = meters), 104 (10x10x10x10 = meters), so on, until the limit of our inmagination in direction to the macrocosmos.
Later let’s return, a little faster, up to the point where we started and continue our trip in the opposite direction reducing distances of travel by factors of 10 into the microcosmos.
Observe the constancy of the laws of the universe and think about how much the human race still needs to learn...

3. BON VOYAGE!

Getting closer at 10 cm ...We can delineate the leaves.

53. 10-2m
1 Centímeter
At this distance it is possible to observe the structure of the leaf.

54. 10-3m
1 Millímeter
The cellular structures start showing...

55. 10-4m
100 micrometers
The cells can be defined. You could see the union between them.

56. 10-5m

Start our trip inside the cell...

57. 10-6m
1 micrometers
The nucleus of the cell is visible.

58. 10-7m

Again we changed the messuring unit to adapt to the minúscule size. You could see the chromosomes.

59. 10-8m
10 nanometers
In this micro universe the DNA chain is visible.

60. 10-9m
1 nanometer
...the chromosómes blocks can be studied.

61. 10-10m
100 picometers
It appears like clouds of electrons... These are carbon átoms that formed our world. You could notice the resemblance of the microcosmos with the macrocosmos...

62. 10-11m
10 picometers
In this miniature world we could observe the electrons orbiting the atoms.

63. 10-12m
1 picometer
An inmense empty space between the nucleus and the electron orbits...

64. 10-13m
100 femtometers
At this incredible and minuscule size we could observe the nuceus of the atom.

65. 10-14m
10 femtometers
Now we could observe the nucleus of the carbon atom

66. 10-15m

Here we are in the field of the scientific imagination, face to face with a proton.

67. 10-16m 10 Femtometers Examine the ‘quark’ partícules
There is no further to go... At the limits of current scientific knowledge this is the limit of matter...

68. And now you see the depths we will travel into in the microscopic world of chemistry...

69. And now you see the depths we will travel into in the microscopic world of chemistry...
Beyond the world of biology…

70. And now you see the depths we will travel into in the microscopic world of chemistry...
Beyond the world of biology…
We must use our imaginations to “see” the miniscule
in chemistry.

71. And now you see the depths we will travel into in the microscopic world of chemistry...
Beyond the world of biology…
We must use our imaginations to “see” the miniscule
in chemistry.
And our math to learn about it!
