Fine Structure

I'm a big fan of Neil deGrasse Tyson, so this link should be of no surprise to regular readers. Seed Magazine has this feature in the magazine where they highlight the desk of a scientist and the scientist annotates all the little things around the desk and why they exist, etc.

Neil's desk is... cheesy, to say the least. Telescopes, van Gogh... a bust of Newton? But what else can you ask from someone who teaches science to more kids in a day that most people do in a year? I love it when scientists talk about anything that's not science, proving once again that they are, in fact, real people.
