SPECIAL THANKS Who would have guessed that Jupiter's influence might provoke even the slightest glance at microscopic life here on Earth? Turns out, Jupiter may be one of the reasons life on Earth had a chance to evolve beyond simple forms. (To learn why, you'll have to see the movie!) NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center would like to thank Dr. Peter Siver and Connecticut College for gracious permission to use original footage of microscopic life in LARGEST. These pictures show the opposite end of the solar system's size scale! Check out the work of Dr. Siver and his team at http://silicasecchidisk.conncoll.edu/Main_Menu_Frameset.html |
