Crazy: Snowflake looks like mutated virus being increased by 50,000 times

The image above appears to show a mutant virus from somewhere else in the universe, but it is neither an alien structure nor a threat to human life. We are just talking about a snowflake found in a known icicle formation - the freezing of water droplets in suspension as they meet the surface and form ice structures.

To get the photography that illustrates this news, scientists used very high-powered electron microscopes and zoomed 50, 000 times in a snowflake. That's right: there are 50 thousand approximation applications on the analyzed object. Could you imagine that something like this could happen to something as simple as snow? Isn't it scary to think how many other microscopic structures are different than we think?
