The short answer is; no. We will never see atoms using visible light, simply because the wavelength of visible light (around 400 to 700 nanometers) is larger than the size of an atom (around 0.1 to ...

University of Iowa researchers found in a new study that images of Earth that kindle "blue marble awe" could create more favorable views of renewable energy and the environment.

This image was captured in 1995 by the the Hubble Space Telescope. The pillars are each a staggering 4-5 light-years in length, and represent only a small portion of the much large Eagle Nebula ...
