WunderkanoneExploring the Microscopic World
We are surrounded by another world that is hidden to the naked eye. The microscope reveals its beauty - welcome to the micro world! Two hundred years ago, the news that a drop of pond water contained an abundance of small creatures was a big sensation. Soon afterwards, some tinkerers travelled around with home-made instruments, revealing this "wonder" to a larger audience. In the vernacular, this instrument was called the “Wunderkanone” – a “Wonder Cannon”.
