- Bugscope TeamHello!
- 2:21 pm
- 2:27 pm
- Bugscope TeamNice spikes.
- Bugscope TeamNo ceiling walking for this dude.
- 2:34 pm
- 2:40 pm
- Bugscope Teamhi, mr. s, welcome to bugscope!
- Bugscope TeamHello Mr S!
- Bugscope Teamwe are still making presets, but will be done very soon, 5 minutes
- Bugscope Teamant dude
- Bugscope Teamthis one has more complex compound eyes than usual
- Bugscope Teamok, presets are done, session is unlocked
- Bugscope Teammr. s, you should see controls on the right side of the browser. if you don't remember to hit F11 to make your browser go to full screen mode
- Bugscope TeamI am back, on IE7
- Bugscope Teammr s., do you see this chat? please respond
- Bugscope Teammr s. i will try calling in a couple of minutes if i don't see some chat from ya. i'm a little worried you are at 1024 resolution and can't see the chat...
- Bugscope TeamHi Angel!
- Bugscope Teamhey angel
- TeacherI am sorry i was away
- Bugscope Teamokay, no problemo, glad to see you!
- Bugscope TeamHey good deal.
- 2:46 pm
- TeacherI am also signened in as angel to see how it looks for the students. They will arrive at 1:30 my time
- Bugscope TeamMr S you have control and can move around, choose presets, change mag, etc.
- Bugscope TeamOOF
- Bugscope Teamexcellent, if you want us to switch control to angel, let us know. only we can switch controls over to students
- Bugscope Teamthe controls for students and teachers are exactly the same
- Bugscope Teamtry focus
- TeacherWhat am I looking at
Bugscope Teamthis is the head of an ant
- Bugscope Teamif it gets worse go the other way
- Bugscope Teaman ant head
- Bugscope Teambut it is OOF.
- Teacherwhat is oof
- Bugscope Teamoof = out of focus
- Bugscope Teamthanks Nation of Alexes
- Bugscope TeamNOA
- TeacherI am on explorer should I try firefos?
- Bugscope Teammr. s, the presets on the bottom right will take you to interesting locations
- Bugscope Teamno, if this is working, stick with it
- Bugscope Teamun;ess you are having trouble you need not change
- Bugscope Teamunless...
- Bugscope Teamdo you see the controls and the presets?
- TeacherI am still learning what to do
- Bugscope Teamawesome, any questions just let us know. we are here to help
- Bugscope Teamyou are doing well and have lots of time
- Bugscope Teamtry clicking on a preset on the bottom right
- 2:51 pm
- Bugscope Teamthere are 9 different presets to choose from, you should be able to scroll down to see more presets... ah nice zoom in there!
- Bugscope Teamthere are an earwig, a couple of bees, an ant, a true bug, and a ladybug (an Asian lady beetle) on this stub.
- Bugscope Teamthis is silver paint on the carbon tape
- Bugscope Teamcool, so when you drive, you click once to start moving, then click again to stop moving.
- Bugscope Teamif you get lost, just click on a preset
- Bugscope Teamotherwise you may venture beyond the know world
- Bugscope Teamif you don't like clicking to drive, you can try click to center. click to center is easier to control.
- Bugscope Teamknown
- Bugscope Teamworld
- Bugscope Teamants always look like they have a second insect in their mouths
- Bugscope Teamnice
- 2:56 pm
- Bugscope Teamfocusing can be tricky. if you go one direction and it doesn't get better, then try going the other direction.
- Bugscope Teamalso, there is a slight lag for the command to complete in the scope, so don't click too fast. if you do, it'll tell you on the image 'please wait for command to complete...'
- TeacherI am slow but I am getting it
- Bugscope TeamCate on from San Francisco.
- Bugscope Teamyou are doing great mr s!
- Bugscope Teamyeah I thinking brb, brp...
- Teacherthis is sweet
- Bugscope Teamdoing a great job, like alex said
- Bugscope Teamglad you like it, this is bugscope 2.0, much improved over 1.0
- Teacherwhat bugs are available?
- Bugscope Teamkids love zooming in and out too, they'll scream sometimes...
- Bugscope Teamladybug, earwig, two bees, ant, Hemipteran of some sort
- Bugscope Teamthe earwig was kind of beat up but had mites nevertheless
- Bugscope Teamah, the hemipteran is the true bug
- TeacherIs that a dust mite?
- Bugscope Teamearwigs are cool because they will usually have mites on them
- 3:01 pm
- Bugscope Teamwe found 3, this one was the best looking
- Bugscope Teamit's a mite that we find on some larger beetles and on earwigs
- Bugscope Teamdustmites have soft bodies and don't look so good in the 'scope without having been critical point dried
- Bugscope Teamthey shrivel up like aphids
- Bugscope Teamthis is one of the mandibular palps on the lady bug face.
- TeacherHow far can we magnify?
- Bugscope Teamthe little nubs are chemosensors -- so it can smell its prospective food
- Bugscope Teamyou can go up until it doesn't make sense to magnify anymore
- Bugscope Teamwe can take worthwhile images at 200,000x -- like, publishable images
- Bugscope Teambut with insects/arthropods there is rarely anything to see at high mag like that
- Bugscope Teamthe pad we see on this tarsus is the pulvillus
- Teacherthe detail is amazing
- Bugscope Teamit has setae that help it stick to glass, or to the ceiling
- Bugscope Teamgood magnification for bugs is ususally between 20x - 20,000x, right scott?
- Bugscope Teampollen
- Teacheron a flower?
Bugscope Teamon the true bug
- 3:06 pm
- Bugscope Teamit is sometimes hard to distinguish between pollen and mold spores, but mold spores are often smaller, and they deform -- they collapse when they dry
- Bugscope Teampollen is more robust
- Bugscope Teamthe weird contrast is caused by charging
- Bugscope TeamMr S we hope to have entomologists on later to help us out
- Bugscope Teamnow you need to focus
- Bugscope Team2 microns is the length of a bacterium
- Teacherup or down
- Bugscope Teamif we have bacteria on this sample somewhere we can see them
- Bugscope Teamlooks like up
- Teacherhow would we find bacteria?
- Bugscope Teamwe would look for a dirty place on an eye, maybe
- Bugscope Teamthere you go -- better and better
- Bugscope Teamthis is as Cate said charging up with electrons and this has some distortion in it
- Bugscope Teamat the top
- TeacherWhile I log on more computers why don't you drive to see if you can find one. i will write when I am back
- Bugscope Teamwhen the electrons cannot go to ground this is what happens
- 3:12 pm
- Bugscope Teamthose lumps almost look like crusted over mites
- Bugscope Teamjuju, 'microvilli'
- Bugscope Teamyeah they did look like mites
- 3:17 pm
- 3:22 pm
- TeacherI have some really bright students. It is my goal that they come away amazed with what science can do and the unique creatures we have in the world. I hope that some will continue on in biology or chemistry. so more than knowledge for this session is the love of science
- Bugscope Teamsounds cool
- Bugscope Teamscott is still looking for some bacteria
- Bugscope Teamlet us know if you are ready to take control
- Bugscope Teamstudents are welcome to ask us anything, including thing about our jobs in science, or what we went to school in to get our jobs...
- TeacherI am back
- Teacherdid you find a bacteria or a small single cell critter
- Bugscope Teamscott is still looking
- Bugscope Teamsometimes they are hard to find
- TeacherWe have just finished up on cell biology
- Bugscope Teambut if you are ready to control the scope, let us know and he'll stop looking
- Bugscope Teamare your students watching?
- Teachernot yet
- Bugscope Teamok
- 3:28 pm
- Bugscope Teamscott found something. these are fungus
- Bugscope Teamscales from a moth or something with fungal hyphae crossing one
- Bugscope Teamit is sometimes hard to find bacteria
- Teacherthe students are just arriving
- Bugscope Teamcoolness
- StudentWe're here.
- Bugscope Teamoak hardbor students, welcome to bugscope!
- Studenthi
- Studentokay im here!

- Student: )
- Student stop! science time
- Studentaren't we though
- Studentreally
- Studentwow! thats amazing
- Studentcome on
- Studentpretty much yeah
- Student:)
- TeacherSo where do we start
- StudentI love science!!!!!
- Studentbrandon your boring
- Bugscope Teamwhy dont you start by either driving somewhere or click on a preset
- Bugscope Teamgo to a preset if you would like
- StudentHi
- Bugscope Teamwell, start by click on a preset and asking questions about what you see, we'll do our best to answer any questions you may have
- Studentwow this is fun!!!
- Bugscope Teamand let us know when you have questions about anything
- Bugscope TeamHi Izzy.
- Bugscope Teammr s, if you want a student to control the scope, let us know and we'll transfer control
- Bugscope TeamThis is a moth or butterfly scale on a true bug body
- Teachernumber 8 please
- StudentHi Scott!
- 3:33 pm
- Studentwhat is it : )
- Teacherthen let me drive
- Bugscope Teamawesome, this is a bee, at 2532x magnification.
- Studentl
- Bugscope Teamnow we are looking at setae coming out of the chitin, not sure where we are
- Bugscope TeamMr S you have control
- Studenti dont get it
- Bugscope Teamthese are setae on a bee
- Studentwow
- Bugscope Teamwe are looking at the setae on a bee. setae are hair like structures that help the insect to sense it's environment
- Bugscope Teamnow you can see the chitin -- the cuticle -- up close
- Bugscope Teamsetae are hairs belonging to an insect
- Studentwooooooo pritty
- StudentMr. S is such a good driver
- Bugscope Teamthis shape means that the chitin is stronger here
- Bugscope Teamnice focusing
- StudentWhat is that?????
- Studentwhos his favorite?
- Studentit looks like a crack
Bugscope Teamyes, often cracks appear on the insects when we dry them and put them in the scope.
- Studentnope
- Bugscope Teamand that it may have a different color or reflection because of the shape
- Studentlooks like the bee got a bo bo
- Bugscope Teamyeah there is a fine crack there
- Studentwhat is that
- Studentwhat is that circular shape?
- Studentwhat from?'
- Studentit is a crack
- Bugscope Teamnow we are out of focus
- Studentwow!
- Studentokay so it is a crack
- Bugscope Teamtake down the magnification a bit, then try focusing
- Studentwhat kind of crack?
- Studentwhat could the crack be from?
- Bugscope Teamstress fracture from drying
- Studentcould you see the crack with the naked eye
- Bugscope TeamHi Smiley!
Bugscope Teamno way, it's very small
- Studentohh........
- Bugscope Teamprobably not Nathan.
- Bugscope TeamHello everyone
- Bugscope Teamtoo small
- Student: )
- Bugscope Teamnotice the scale bar on the bottom left of the image... um is a micron
- Studenthi smiley!!
- Bugscope Teamnow if you see the micron bar you get an idea of the scale of the imaging
- Studenttrees
- Bugscope Team1 micron = 1 millionth of a meter
- Bugscope Team44 microns is 0.044 millimeters
- Studentwow they do look like trees1
- Studentare the tree looking theings hairs?
Bugscope Teamyes, they are hairs, but they are called seta, they help the insect to sense it's environment
- Studentit's my dog
Bugscope TeamSmall dog...I bet it is easy going for a walk with him =)
- Studentfuzzy!
- Studentlol
- Bugscope Team288 microns is 0.3 mm
- 3:38 pm
- Bugscope Teamyou can see the antenna
- Bugscope Teamball and socket connection to the head
- Studentthat would be an amazing dog!
- Studentyep
- Studentwow, that's so amazing!!! it looks pokey!
- Studentare those hairs in its eye?
- Student?? ok..............
- Bugscope Teamthis is the socket for the antenna conncted to the head
- Bugscope Teamit has tiny setae on it that allow it to feel the position it is in
- Studentit has hair on its eye
- Teachermine isn't centering
- Bugscope Teamthe eye is a little ways away
- StudentI didn't know that ants were so hairy...
- Studentwere is it's eye?
- Bugscope Teamclick to center is not working?
- Bugscope Teamthere it goes
- Studentthats way cool!!!!!!
- Student'';;''
- Studentcool stuff!
- Studentso is that a leg?
- TeacherWould you please let the nathans drive
- Bugscope Teamnope, it's an antenna on the head
- StudentGod created them so uniquely! :D
- Bugscope Teamthis is the ball part of the antenna
- Bugscope Teamok nathans go for it
- Bugscope Teamnathens you have control now, go for it dude
- Bugscope Teamand Nathans has control
- Studentoh!
- Bugscope Teamyes it does look like it is wet
- Studentare those bubbles on it? what are they?
- Studentwhat is that dot?
- Studentis that water on it's antenna?
- Studentthey look like isicles
- Studentjust part of it?
- Studenta ball of nasty
- Studentwhats that?
- Bugscope Teamit's not water, most likely dust
- Bugscope Teamits just a juju as scott would call it
- Bugscope Teamit is hard to tell what some tiny thing like that is
- Studentcool
- Studentwhat is a juju
Bugscope Teamjust means it is dust or dirt, not something meaningful
- Bugscope Teamyou can see that there is some film of oil on the insect body
- Bugscope Teamthe bugs are in a vacuum in the scope
- Bugscope Teamwhich happens often
- Bugscope Teamry before they go into the scope
- Bugscope Teamjuju is our all-purpose word for goo that we do not recognize
- 3:43 pm
- Bugscope Teamor as Cate says...
- Studenthaha thats smart
- Studenti like it
- Studenthum
- Studentthats cute
- Studenttree of nasty
- Studentsweet =>
- Studenti think im going to start saying juju from now on!
- Studentlol
- Bugscope Teamthe electron beam is strong and making the sample move a little
- Studenti kno a juju
- Studentwhats that hole thing behind the hair?
Bugscope Teamthe hairs, or setae, come out from holes in the exoskeleton of the insects
- Bugscope Teamnathans, you can also click on a preset on the bottom right to take us to another bug
- Bugscope Teambecause we are very close to this sample
- Bugscope Teamthe hole is where the seta is connected to nerves on the inside of the cuticle
- Studentmmmmmmmmm....... chiken
- Bugscope Teamthe exoskeleton of insects have no nerves on the, so the hairs communicate the outside world to underneth the exoskeleton of the bug
- Bugscope Teamyou can also see the rectangle where we had the beam focused for so long
- Studentdoes the juju get in there and like mess stuff up?
- Studentokie dokie doe... :) this is so cool looking at a hair on an ant's head... :)
- Bugscope Teamwell not now
- Bugscope Teamthe eye is to the right there
- Bugscope Teamdome-like compound eye
- Bugscope Teamall insects have lots of setae, remember they are SETAE, not HAIRS
- Bugscope Teamyou can tell that ants use their antennae more than they use their eyes
- Bugscope Teamgood driving Nathans
- Bugscope Teamthe individual facets of the eye are called ommatidia
- Studentwow, that's an intense eye...
- Studentcongratulations
- Student!
- Student: )
- Studentwhat are those? :P
- Studentok, what are wee looking at?
Bugscope Teamomatitia
- Studentwow what are those bumps?
- Studentthe buble things?
- Studentthey look like bubbles
- Bugscope Teamthese are indvidual eye facets -- ommatidia
- Studentsluge
- Studentoh
- Bugscope Teaminsects have these compound eyes, amde up of many individual eye facets (bumps) called ommatidia
- Studentwhat that blob is?
- Bugscope Teamthere are setae sticking out from between some of them
- Studentwhats that juju on the eyey?
- Bugscope Teamthere is a seta in between the ommatidia
- Bugscope Teamomatitia are the parts a compound eye is made of
- Bugscope Teamdirt
- Studentthat looks like "juju"
Bugscope Teamlooks like it to me too
- Studentew
- Studentwhoa thats cool man !!!!!!!! :)
- Studentewwww.. that's gross
- Studentno it's not
- Student:D
- Studentkk
- 3:48 pm
- Bugscope Teamwhen one of these eyes is broken we can see that the ommatidia are crystalline
- Student: (
- Studenthmmmmm it kindda reminds me of a slug!
- Bugscope Teamlike lenses
- Studentcool
- Bugscope Teamyeah like a super tiny slug
- Studentgo izzie!
- Studentyeah, go Hannah!
- Studentoh fyi this is Brando not Bando and Jesse too
- Teacherplease give Izzy a chance to drive
- Studentbut we like the power
- Studentdarn
- Studenttime for myspace
- Studentwhoot whoot
- Bugscope Teamok izzy your turn
- Bugscope Teamsometimes ants are blind and sometimes they have still fewer ommatidia
- Bugscope Teamthese are simple eyes
- Bugscope Teamthe ocelli
- Studentohhh i see how it is skip us!
- Studentwhat is it
- Studentweird
- Studentyet cool
- Bugscope Teamthere are three, and they are found on the top of the head in flying insects
- Studentthis look interesting
- Bugscope Teamthey help the insect orient to the sun
- Bugscope Teamthose are simple eyes that flying insects will usually have
- Studentway**
- Studentwhy not an even number
- Student?
- Studentwhat is that christmas tree?
- Bugscope Teamkeep an idea of the direction they are going
- Studenti like christmas tree
- Studenti looks like a christmas tree
- Studentme too

- Studentit looks like snow1
- Bugscope Teamnot pollen
- StudentJESSE: it loook like mold.
- Bugscope Teamabout $600,000 9 years ago

- Student$6000 isn't that much...is it?
- Studentoh
- Studentmy bab
- Studentbad
- Studentsorry
- Studentmy bad
- 3:53 pm
- Bugscope Teamthere are others involved in bugscope, many years of college collectively
- Bugscope TeamI have a B.S. in physics
Bugscope Teamcurrently I have a BS in research psychology and a BS in Bio
- Bugscope Teammaster's at least
- Studentit looks like smoke
- Studentwhat school?
Bugscope TeamI am at Florida State University but came from UIUC where Cate, Scott and Alex are
- StudentOver Six hundred thousand dollers Cha Ching!!!

- Bugscope TeamI have a BA in English and Biiology
- Studentcave man club
- Studentok guys...bring it together
- Bugscope Teamd'oh!
- TeacherIs this funded by government grants or beckman
- Studentnope
- Bugscope Teamthis was funded at first by grants
- Studentnice
- Bugscope Teamnow we run it as outreach and absorb the cost
- Bugscope Teamthe 'scope was bought using NSF funding
- Bugscope Teambugscope has been around for 9 years
- TeacherPlease let angel drive
- Studentangel good luck
- Studentyou have friends in high places
- Studentwhats that big disk?
- Bugscope Teamangel, you are the man!

- Bugscope Teamtry one of the presets Hannah
- Studentthis looks like an elvish forest
Bugscope Teambetter look out for those orcs
- Bugscope Teamnice job driving izzy
- Studentwith lots of lights
- Bugscope Teamyeah it was an Elvish forest
- Studenti am batman
- Bugscope Teamnow this is pollen
- Studentis that pollen?

- Bugscope Teamgood job focusing
- Studentooooooooooowwwhhhh pritty
- Studentohhh.....
- Studentit looks like spnges!
- Studentwhat thoose dots of black?
- Studentya by the way i'm not that smart
- Studentreally?!?!
- Studentit's a city of little people in the pollen
- Studentthis is fun... is that dirt on the pollen?
- Studentyep!
- Bugscope Teamnow we are at high mag and it is more difficult to focus
- Studentthats a lot of holes
- Studentwhat does the pollen do?
- Studentoh, I get it now... sorry about that... :)
- Bugscope Teambacteria are 2 microns long, so we could see them easily if there were any
- TeacherYou have this well set up
- Bugscope Teamyou all are doing a great job driving
- Studentwhy are we grey?
Bugscope Teamgood question, the microscope is an electron micropscope. that means electron are used to gather the image. electron are very very small, smaller than the wavelegth of light, so in fact it's not poissible for this scope to gather light to create the image. it can only grab electrons, and it builds the image from those electrons in one color really: or shades of a single color, which we see as black and white or grey as you say
- StudentI second the motion
- Studentoh never mind
- TeacherWe have a different driver at the angel statopm
- Bugscope Teamthis microscope has a field-emission electron gun and gives us very good resolution
- Studentomgoodness!
- Studentby little people
- Bugscope Teammite
- Studentewww
- Studentoh...
- Studentsweet
- Bugscope Teamearwigs often have mites like this
- Studentyummy
- Studentit looks gross
- Bugscope Teamthese are blind
- Bugscope TeamScotts favorite
- Studentreally?
- StudentJesse: ewww
- Bugscope Teamdon't forget to click to stop
- Studentwhats happening?
- Student+ Jesse: groovy
- Bugscope Teamor it will keep going
- StudentI can't see
- Studentcraders?
- Bugscope Teamthis is doublestick carbon tape, with the craters in it
- Studentlooks like swiss cheese
- Studentthere are little cracks everywhere!
- Student9
- 4:03 pm

- Studentwoooooooo gray
- Studentcan you ever squish your specimen?
- Studentschools*
- Studentthat's a good question Hannah!
- Studentwhat is * for?
- Bugscope Teamyeah we can squish samples against the polepiece if we are not careful
- Studentwhere is the head?
- Studentright there!
- Bugscope TeamSmiley is very clever
- Studentcan WE squish it?
- Studentokay
- Studentyeah~
- Bugscope Teamum sorry about the head...

Bugscope TeamI work on the fourth floor and lucky me when I go from my office to lab I have to work outside...sometimes the rare moment to see day light =)
- Studentlol
- Bugscope Teamthere are photos of us on the bugscope website
- Studentwhat is a fly leg????
- Studenteveryone i know at college dose
- Studenti appreciate that!
- Studenthahahahahahahaha lol lol lol
- Studentsweet!

- Studentwas it worth goingto school for all that time?
Bugscope Teamyeah, college is fun actually
- Studentthey have hairy legs!
- Bugscope TeamAngel we have pretty cool jobs for the most part
