Wow these are awesome! So interesting to scroll and zoom around.
I'm seeing several blobs with tails - like music notes - spheres with an extruded (?) bit. I don't recognize the shape or mechanism off the bat.... Wondering if that's part of where all the rods came from?
Knowing that it's a dust sample helps me contextualize a little better. I wonder what ordinary dust looks like under SEM...
To reduce the storage overhead, there are some methods to consider: 1) large areas are nice for context but scan a smaller FOV that is most pertinent to the object of interest. 2) convert the 16-bit images to JPG at a greater compression level (reduction in quality). In my Photoshop training, I learned that the human eye is unable to see a difference between a compression value of "10" (least compression, highest quality) and a value of "8". First try an "8". Then repeat the conversion process to compare against a compression value of "6". You'll only notice the degradation as you zoom but overall context remains the same. Experimentation is good.
I'm a bit pernickety when it comes to the data being the real data rather than a psycho-visual interpretation of what the data should be, so I like to stick to uncompressed as much as possible. One thing that I might try is to have higher compression on the smaller tiles and zero compression on the higher fidelity tiles. I'm very familiar with the compression vs. artefact ratios in JPEG having spent most of my career running a graphics design business and animation studio.
I have actually done two separate sections of this particular sample, but all of this really was an exploration in possibility to develop techniques for future implementation on other work. It has always been my intention to deliver this to the web, and you're prompting me to encourage me to get it done. Thank you.
I have some interesting approaches to use with this media format, which you will see in the coming months.
I totally understand. But consider the needs of viewing audience. My compressed and reduced quality web output is just as spectacular as the physical, high res, large file size, printed output. Experiment. May you find a sweet spot of compromise.
He did have vision for three weeks in 2014 and they started to fait when writing them down and from where I stand, he has the puzzle how it starts before ring in a ring in a ring. There is a process before the creation of rings and for me it are two light beams curling around each other and then one goes inward and the other one outwards ( these are those right and white yin/yang. Its not like a invisible wormhole) spiral until they meet. Then you have a ring in a ring. He proves this with a lot of simple experiments that we all can see and do ourselves. Dyor
the object to the left of the 'bent pipe' is very peculiar. looks like peeled bits all over. like how you make chocolate shavings. then actual tiny spheres on the big sphere. fascinating.
First prove that the associated AI models include only observationally verifiable physics context.
Then show that the associated model training is designed to strictly avoid traumatizing underprivileged “human filter” contractors.
Then prove that the associated AI models are not hosted in data centers that are currently illegally decimating local communities.
You can’t. Until you can, expect to be opposed. Until you’ve educated yourself on these factors enough to change your approach, expect to be treated as hostile to humanity.
Wow the detail in that SEM image is astounding, so many spheres and rods. I'm curious as to what this is and how it was produced. Thanks for sharing.
Small part of recovered dust from a little less than 25 years ago

Glad to help a fellow scientist, Bob, even in retirement. Yes, these pyramidal tile data sets are huge.

Hi Walt,

It is already vastly smaller than the source data.
As I said, this was just the first step I wanted to achieve.
Maybe you have to start a kick-starter to do more imaging.
There’s a wonderful sphere with triangular lines on it.
Great but we have found more pieces of the puzzle here: https://www.youtube.com/@ScientificLee/playlists

if feels like the https://earth.nullschool.net/#current/wind/surface/level/orthographic=-330.00,0.00,428 website when you look at earth.
It would be interesting to see a reference SEM from a ’normal’ fire ’ash’, same materials.
I look forward to you talking about these amazing images Bob.

Is sharing images using AI acceptable: AI links support sharing. See the AI ground rules:

Shouldn’t be acceptable:
First prove that the associated AI models include only observationally verifiable physics context.
Then show that the associated model training is designed to strictly avoid traumatizing underprivileged “human filter” contractors.
