Wouldn’t one expect to see at least one image from the microscope in the article, or at least know why there’s none?

I agree with you 100%, and I find this happens very often on the net: an article describing something essentially visual that can't bother adding a couple of pics or videos. Frustrating.

If you click the link to the paper it has info and more images https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-03528-w https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-021-03528-w I'm guessing New Scientist had not got permission to use the stuff yet?

    weird, I can't seem to access it on sci-hub either. Too recent maybe?

      To the best of my knowledge, Sci-hub has stopped accepting new articles from the beginning of 2021 due to court orders.

Oh you didn’t find the image captioned “An artist’s impression of a quantum microscope” of what appears to be an alien tractor beam sucking up small creatures helpful??

No, I have come to expect that any article like this, about microscopes or telescopes or any imaging technology, is guaranteed not to have any example of what they are talking about.

Wouldn’t one expect to see at least one image from the microscope in the article, or at least know why there’s none?
