Anything related to things that are too small to see them with the eye, and the tools used to observe them.

This space is quite general in scope - microscopes, microbiology, small component electronics, questions about buying optical components, etc.

My green water culture is challenging to study with the microscope but still a lot of fun.

Look i say this, but remember i barely know anything here. Still not sure even sure how all those parts are connected. But for setting up Kohler illumination it looks to be essential.

Yesterday I properly aligned the light source on my microscope and wow it was a tremendous improvement in available light. Feels at least 50% brighter.
