WorldPingWithin tiny halos of light clinging to a vanishingly thin wisp of optical fiber, scientist Jongmin Lee guides atoms like marbles through a narrow pipe.
Rock the fiber and the atoms shift side by side; they just don't fall off.
Research findings and mission results set the evidence base that policy, funding and later discoveries build on.
