Question: how big is ur wokespace/factory

Our building is pretty big for the number of people that work here – imagine about four football fields put together and then double the height!

The front part is like a giant science playground where we test our instruments and show them to customers. Picture big rooms filled with amazing microscopes and other scientific equipment, all humming away while doing super-precise measurements.

Behind that, we have workshops where we build and test new inventions, meeting rooms for video calls with our teams around the world, and offices where we plan future projects. There’s even a special area called a ‘clean room’ where we have to wear special suits to keep dust away from sensitive equipment!

It’s pretty cool walking around and seeing all the different scientists and engineers working on different parts of our microscopes – kind of like a high-tech factory meets science lab!
