What marijuana looks like under the microscope

in #cannabis6 years ago

Rochester Institute of Technology professor and science photographer Ted Kinsman captures an unseen side of Cannabis in his new book, "Cannabis: Marijuana Under The Microscope". These microscopic images capture a close up view of Marijuana. We (businessinsider) spoke with Ted to find out more about his scanning electron microscope photos. Following is a transcript of the video.

This isn't some alien planet

It's cannabis!

These images were taken with a scanning electron microscope.

It's not your ordinary microscope.

It fires electrons at a sample.

Which creates a high-resolution image by scanning the surface topography.

As well as data about the surface composition.

"Cannabis: Marijuana Under the Microscope" is a book by Ted Kinsman.

He's a photographic sciences professor at Rochester Institute of Technology.
