I work for a company that manufactures electron microscopes. I just wanted to point out a couple of things: First, Scanning Electron Microscopes are referred to as either an “ess-ee-em” (SEM) or “sem.” Not “SEMS” in all caps like that-- that’s potentially confusing as it’s not an actual acronym.
Also, while modern SEMs are capable of resolution down the the sub-nanometer scale, most images we see (including the butterfly images referenced) are at the micro-meter (or “micron”) scale. Images of features the nano-meter really aren’t so easily recognizable as “surface defect” or “butterfly genitalia.”
