Remarkable Photo of a Single Atom

Titled Single Atom in an Ion Trap, David Nadlinger, a Ph.D. a student in University of Oxford Department of Physics, took this photo which shows a single positively-charged strontium atom suspended in an electric field between two metal electrodes. For scale, the two needle tips it dances in between are just two millimeters apart. A close-up crop of the image lets us see this small dot of light, and is an incredibly unique way to see this tiny particle.
