Bremen Museum
I thought that looking at the fiber optic cable through the microscope was very interesting. I did not know that inside the cable is glass fibers that transmit information through light signals. The electronic signals are converted to optical signals so they can be easily transported before they get recovered back. 10% of households in Germany also have fiber optic connections. Overall, looking through the microscope was fun.

I also thought this was cool to see, I didn't know that was how they worked before seeing this exhibit.
I think that I knew that fiber optic cables were made of fiberglass, but I dont think I ever put 2 and 2 together to understand that it was actually tiny pieces of glass. It is very cool that you were able to see that.
