The right-click method works fine for checking your work. With observation, you can tell what CM's are positive and negative - and if it's a 50-micron or 100-micron. I'll leave it for you to make those determinations for yourself if you are so inclined. :) I don't think that inclusions are desirabl...

Hi gregson.

Can you explain when or how you get that error message?
If you are clicking on a movie link from the forum, you will be required to login to the VM first and try the link again.

Re: Finding the surfacein Phase II

I was wondering if some easily recognisable tiny particles (would bucky balls or carbon nontubes big enough?) could ahve been sprinkled on the surface to aid (a) the microscopes autofocussing and (b) our dusting work.

Re: circular shape

I've noticed that many such central-triangular artefacts are surrounded by at least one subtle or obvious circles like yours... Here's a few examples - can anyone find a common explanation? I can only offer that they resemble the 'chevrons' similar to the artifacts of a scratch as described in Tuto...
