We have this sweet Schubert coffee mug that is one of my favorites. I just went to snap a photo of it to share, but the logos are kinda worn beyond recognition
. maybe its time for a new one.

check out this bacteriophage I imaged a few yrs ago using stain EM (NS-TEM). The structure isn't as preserved as the one you shared, which to me looks like it may be cryo or "in-situ" TEM. Mine is also obv much lower in magnification

T4 phage are especially photogenic. I think it's the size and fairly rigid structure.

Today I learned about Rocket Lab, an Australian company that launches rockets into space.
They recently launched a scramjet aircraft. Which is something, for sure, but what caught my eye was the name they gave to the mission. It could be the most Australian name ever:
