 | Cell-like vesicles created using materials known to exist in interstellar space
This is a vesicle (~10 µm across) glowing under black light in the microscope made from the bulk residue. Proof that it is a hollow vesicle, rather than a simple drop of oil, is the green pyranine dye which we have trapped inside of it. Photo Platform: Date Released: January 29, 2001 small |
 | Droplets created using materials known to exist in interstellar space exhibit cell-like complexity These droplets (small ones are ~10 µm across) glowing under black light in the microscope show internal structure and suggest chemical complexity. They are from a chemically separated fraction of the bulk residue. Photo Platform: Date Released: January 29, 2001 small |
 | Cell-like droplets created using materials known to exist in interstellar space These droplets (~10 µm across) show structures reminiscent of cells (although they are not alive). They are from a chemically separated fraction of the bulk residue. Photo Platform: Date Released: January 29, 2001 small |
