A billion seconds ago, it was 1960, and a billion minutes ago, Jesus was alive. I get to use an atomic force microscope for one lab to study objects a billion times smaller than me, and map fuel injection and dyno the car in another.
This semester I will use an atomic force microscope to spell out "IU Sucks" using individual atoms to form the letters.
Oh, and this machine can write the entire library of congress on a 3x5 notecard.
Nanotechnology and automotive engineering are entire opposite ends of the spectrum, and I love them both.
