It blows air across your body and dislodges microscopic particles that you may have been in contact with, thereby screening for explosives.
The world of biology is full of miracles, but nothing I have seen is as miraculous as the metamorphosis of the monarch caterpillar. Her brain is a speck of neural tissue a few millimeters long, about a million times smaller than a human brain. With this almost microscopic clump of nerve cells she knows how to manage her new legs and wings, to walk and to fly, to find her way by some unknown means of navigation over thousands of miles from Massachusetts to Mexico. How are her behavior patterns programmed first into the genes of the caterpillar and then translated into the neural pathways of the butterfly These are mysteries that biologists are far from understanding. The monarch is living proof that nature's imagination is richer than our own.
The best thing about these places is that large -- as in macroscopic -- buried fossilized material is usually weathering out of the outcrops. One can see them laying about and follow the fragments to the source. For microscopic fossils, of course, no clear obvious clues are usually present. The exception is large scale microbial mats like those that made stromatolites and algal travertiles and tufa.
By means of microscopic observation and astronomical projection the lotus flower can become the foundation for an entire theory of the universe and an agent whereby we may perceive Truth.
I've spent more time than many will believe making microscopic observations, but I've done them with joy, and I've taken no notice those who have said why take so much trouble and what good is it.

There is a moment in the history of every nation, when ... the perceptive powers reach their ripeness and have not yet become microscopic so that man, at that instant ... with his feet still planted on the immense forces of night, converses by his eyes and brain with solar and stellar creation.
This is analogous to what is colloquially known as being punch drunk, ... We believe the microscopic changes in the brain are consistent with chronic traumatic encephalopathy or a degeneration over time that set the stage for the final result. The meningitis was not bacterial or viral or the kind you see in college dorms or army barracks.
As of now, string theorists have no explanation of why there are three large dimensions as well as time, and the other dimensions are microscopic. Proposals about that have been all over the map.
The television screen, so unlike the movie screen, sharply reduced human beings, revealed them as small, trivial, flat, in two banal dimensions, drained of color. Wasn't there something reassuring about it -- that human beings were in fact merely images of a kind registered in one another's eyes and brains, phenomena composed of microscopic flickering dots like atoms. They were atoms -- nothing more. A quick switch of the dial and they disappeared and who could lament the loss
Why has not man a microscopic eye For this plain reason,man is not a fly.
What we're suggesting, and this remains to be tested by further work, that in men it isn't the size of the overall brain that is correlated with how well they do on all these mazes and three-dimensional perception tests, but it might be the structure, it might be the size or the anatomical microscopic structure of the region in the brain that is important for that kind of thinking.
