These 14 organic molecules from the Murchison meteorite were imaged at #CFNatBrookhaven.

They are among thousands of other carbon-based molecules uncovered from the meteorite, suggesting the chemical foundation for life is woven into the universe. https://www.bnl.gov/newsroom/news.php?a=123172

Happy #NationalNanoDay!

Today, 10/9, we celebrate discoveries made at the nanometer scale, or 10⁻⁹ meters.

At #CFNatBrookhaven, researchers explore materials at this ultra-small scale to advance fields like quantum science, energy technologies, and microelectronics.

New research on meteorites suggests that the chemical foundation for life is deeply woven into the fabric of the universe. #CFNatBrookhaven

A multidisciplinary team at Brookhaven worked together to bring a new, state-of-the-art microscope to our Center for Functional Nanomaterials. #CFNatBrookhaven

This state-of-the-art scanning transmission electron microscope could lead to new breakthroughs in energy technologies, quantum materials, microelectronics, and beyond. #CFNatBrookhaven

Watch as scientists and technicians install a state-of-the-art scanning transmission electron microscope at #CFNatBrookhaven.
