The Hidden Microcosm

An extraordinary world is hiding in a drop of water, a patch of moss, and the soil beneath your feet.

The Hidden Microcosm explores microscopic life: single-celled hunters, tiny animals, living glass structures, and the hidden ecosystems around us. Discover tardigrades, rotifers, diatoms, fungi, and the surprising ways small organisms feed, build, survive, and evolve.

Cinematic explainers and short discoveries bring the science of these tiny worlds into focus, one organism, adaptation, or habitat at a time.
