On November 19, the center for new technologies (ZNT) was opened at the Deutsches Museum in Munich, Germany. The new center hosts a permanent exhibition on bio- and nanotechnologies, including some early scanning tunneling microscopes (STM), built by IBM researchers Gerd Binnig and Heinrich Rohrer at IBM Research - Zurich. The scientists received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1986 for the development of these instruments, which made it possible to image and later on to manipulate individual atoms.
