UK’s NPL Nanotechnology Island
The UK’s National Physical Laboratory has been developing a nanoscience and nanotechnology information and exhibits presence in Second Life in the SciLands area. One of their islands, Nanotechnology Island, is adjacent to Exploratorium Island. They’re good neighbors —no loud arguments about molecular structures and atomic forces amongst scientists! SL resident Troy McLuhan has been helping them develop exhibits and spaces and recently made these videos which show interesting juxtaposed views of real and virtual nanotechnology research spaces.
