My last post about the ocean-dwelling virus that is likely the world’s most abundant “living” thing could be accurately summarized with this GIF, no? Might be my favorite picture ever. A Bacterium on a Diatom on an Amphipod I see a lot of science stuff, and it’s pretty hard to get me to say “wow” … Just kidding, I say it all the time! Definitely said it when I saw this brain-melting illustration of the scale differences between the domains of life. In one electron microscope picture!! Just remember, there’s about a trillion of those little bacteria on and in you all the time, just that tiny. If you like this, you’ll definitely like this interactive “scale of the universe” tool.
