Bugs and Cogs: A microscopic adventure

If you ever wanted to know just how small scientists can make a mechanical device, have a look at these photos which show tiny cogs and gears being dwarfed by microscopic bugs.

These photos are Courtesy of Sandia National Laboratories, SUMMiTTM Technologies, www.mems.sandia.gov.

Aside from the technological marvel of both the device and the photos - thanks for grossing me out by reminding me that our bodies are covered with these little bugs..
