As a family we love to go camping out and away from any civilization. On nights, especially when the moon is absent I am filled with awe as I gaze into the star lit sky and ponder the immensity of space. I experience this same awe when considering the incomprehensible complexity of the human body.
I recently saw an amazing video produced by Harvard that shows in 3D how our white blood cells functions to ward off infections. We often take for granted just how great is our body.
For those with no background in biology there is version of this video with a narrator that will take you step by step explaining what is happening.
It is well worth your time to view this on your computer.
