Cool! But that salt must be a huge chunk, considering how large peppercorns are.

>> No.1480836

>>1480820
no, it's a single atom of salt

Well obviously you can, just look at ops pic, what else could it be taken with, xrays?? Besides orange and blue are colors of light. 0/10.

you're amusing me, troll or not. go on

Point A) Yes, you can take a picture of a single grain of salt and pepper using light.

Point B) You can not observe atoms with light, because atoms are smaller than the wavelength of light.

A, We're not talking about grains of salt, we're talking about microscopic amounts, aka atoms and molecules, and two, if atoms are smaller than light, how do you explain spectrographic emission graphs?? Bingo.

>> No.1481229

>>1481180
A. use a smaller light source stupid fuk (ie smaller light bulb, smaller lazer beam)

>> No.1481260

>>1481180
clearly you haven't heard of subwavelength imaging, one can observe stuff below the diffraction limit of light using a superlense:

always wondered why atoms were not visible with light, IT ALL MAKES SENSE NOW

beautiful.

Scanning Near-Field Optical Microscopy (SNOM or NSOM) is decent as well. Not sure if they've gotten it down to individual atoms yet, but even if they haven't, they're close.
