Braxton Hicks Contractions A.K.A Almost done making NP

Shaking nano particles + APTES + SiO_2 for optimal coating, using my own wrapping design. During this process we had to remove a bottle to see if they had been shaken sufficiently, which was awfully like trying to birth a baby. The hard part was getting it back in the wrapping, a job no doctor(or student) ever wants to do with a baby.

Beautiful view while waiting for the materials to be born

Getting the solar lamp set up for when we need to dry out the desiccant.

Moving the nest and getting it ready, got to have the humidity just right!

Parting note; Yes I have been watching Jessica Jones season 3
