How does a microscope work? And how has microscopy changed our understanding of the invisible world?

Microscopes

In Magnified you will discover microscopes in a way you have never experienced. Step into the world of lenses and light and see how magnification and resolution determine what becomes visible. Be surprised by the evolution of microscopes and admire rare instruments that once contributed to groundbreaking discoveries. Modern technology reveals microbes in stunning detail, while enchanting images from the Nikon Small World in Motion competition show that microscopy can also be art.
