This animation was created as part of the Children's Museum Nanotechnology Exhibit to give the viewer an idea of what objects look like at the nano-level. The molecules range from something as small as caffeine to major proteins and viruses.

Nicholas Vargo created this kiosk presentation as an undergraduate in Physics at Purdue University.
