Using a groundbreaking new technique, researchers have unveiled the first detailed image of a photon — a single particle of light — ever taken. Researchers in Birmingham have created the first image of a photon, a lemon-shaped particle of light emitted from the surface of a nanoparticle. [@LiveScience](https://flipboard.com/@LiveScience ) has more, including the theory that made the image possible.
