Bacterial Flagellum

The flagellum of an E coli cell is an incredible molecular engine powered by the flow of hydrogen ions across the inner membrane. Spinning at an incredible speed, the flagellum here is shown only in slow motion.

This just proves the existence of Santa Claus. I’m so glad he chose to design and build stuff like this before he changed his career and became the jolly, old gift giver we know him as today. Thanks Santa! 🙏😊

It's suddenly very obvious that the building blocks of life are in fact Skittles and pipe cleaners

This looks like something I saw when I was on shrooms...

Is that thing essentially a nanoscale electric motor?

[allakavivek]

Is this same as ATP synthese in plant membranes
