Scientists make a short film by moving individual atoms around.

How am I so creative? I think taking walks might have something to do with it.

Nice. I didn't think we could see atoms so close.

Um... Is that really true? I thought that was impossible to see such small things... It seems I'm such an outdated person.

The movie itself is boring though. D:

You can with an electron microscope.

Scanning Tunneling Microscopes, or STMs are able to view atoms and other such particles by streaming electrons in an orderly faction, then recording their reflections off the object. This was especially useful in discovery of recent subatomic particles like the Higgs-Boson.

Yep, I'm a nerd and I know it.

Hey, that's pretty awesome. From the title first I thought that it's going to be a very short or low-budget movie, but it's actually the smallest movie ever. I just watched the "making of" video, and it's also really interesting. It's quite amazing how they can move around such incredibly small particles around.

Wow, didn't thought that's possible with such small things! Like Koopster said though, the movie was boring

The movie is impressive, but I feel that the scientists should focus on other issues.

Having small movies isn't very useful to society, but it is nice.

THAT STATEMENT DOES NOT RELATE TO THE TOPIC

YOUR ARGUMENT IS FOREVER INVALID.

Says who. Yes, jellybean's reply was offtopic, but I hope you understand that yours was really uncalled for as well. If you want to have the last word in everything, instead of derailing threads like this one, you could either politely deal with it via PMs or just don't say anything at all. Thanks.
