A close-up of what?

Now I was not sure where to put this, but its obviously fragile and its from Earth so it goes here I figured. Its a close-up of something from our fragile Earth, but can you tell what? If you do know the answer please hold back while others give a educated guess. Thankyou.

26 views and not 1 guess! Is it that hard???

This is in NO way an educated guess but is it a microscopic view of some coral?

def something under the scope. the relationship of organic and crystal-like structure sure seem magnified. (prolly not electron microscope, but something dialed in)

I'm going to guess it's a nano-gear.
That is a gear on the nanoscopic scale.


Perhaps in some organic solution.

is it a snowflake? i dont know just a guess...

Bingo!!! Well done matey!

Look here for those who find this hard to believe (like I did!)

According to the caption under the pic on Wikipedia it is a Column Snowflake.I have it as my desktop wallpaper.

really?
wow.

i just guessed that becuase i know that snowflakes are very crystal like...

So if Wiki tells u guys that al the Ufo pics are just a hoax, u gonna believe it 2?
Come on doesn't this look artificial? It would even suprise me if this waz the thing that started the tread on the : Nanotechnology from the ancients!!!

No, I would'nt believe that al UFOs are a hox because wikipedia
said they were.

Not really, if it were artificial you would'nt have the coral look on
the outside, and the grroves would be equal and completely clear.

It's a snowflake under a highpower microscope, why would it be
anything else, I mean considering there'd be no point in using
something that was'nt a snowflake in an article about them.

never noticed that Wiki only tells what is thought 2 be right? could it be that they googled the pic? Like most of the ppl on earth do when u look for facts!

www.arikah.com...

the picture is also there.
again mentioned as a snowflake under a microscope.

Quite an amazing picture. Mother nature sure is clever and the fact that structures like these are to be believed as natrual and produced by nature sure get you thinking

Small seeds become large organised objects.

The question is what are the laws that goven the growth.

thx for showing an other source on the "SNOWFLAKE"

Sometimes I feel like its not worth bothering posting ANYTHING. Even something as mundane as a poxy snowflake if this is the replies it gets. Get a life.
