Spectacular objects for the microscope Text and microscope slide preparation Text/Images by Wim van Egmond (NL) The Radiolaria are a group of unicellular organisms perhaps more commonly met with as prepared slides, rather than in life. As living creatures they can be encountered in the great oceans but more commonly in the Central Pacific. They were discovered in strange and beautiful forms by the research ship Challenger as a huge deposit of ooze on the ocean bed.
