Bob Greenyer traces the tool back to his years leading live open science work with the Martin Fleischmann Memorial Project, work that earned a 2014 Nobel Peace Prize nomination, and to a promise he made to Patricia Costanza to properly examine the 9/11 dust sample she gave him. The demo moves through deep zoom SEM imagery, automated particle classification, and measurement tools built to catch slag wool, chrysotile asbestos, and magnetic fluid, alongside a companion timeline builder for organizing years of research into one interactive file. Becket Fusik and Bob talk through where the tool could go next, from archaeological sites and drone photography to stitching together the flood of unlabeled Mars imagery circulating online. Patricia 2001 is free to use and runs entirely in the browser, with nothing stored server side.---**CHAPTERS**00:00:00 — Intro: the tool that survived two brick walls00:01:31 — A career built on writing his own software00:08:25 — Why he built a forensic tool for microscopy00:13:53 — Adversarial coding and the arrival of Fable00:15:38 — Where the tool applies beyond microscopes00:19:27 — Live demo begins: navigating the sample00:21:00 — Reading the 9/11 dust sample under SEM00:36:41 — Automated particle classification and counting00:41:16 — The timeline builder tool00:45:01 — Magnetohydrodynamic structures and exotic samples00:53:36 — Getting the tool, and where it goes next---**ABOUT COSMIC SUMMIT**Cosmic Summit is part of the TTN Network, covering deep history, ancient technology, catastrophism, and the researchers pushing the edges of what we know about our past.---**FOLLOW COSMIC SUMMIT**Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cosmicsummitX: https://x.com/CosmicsummitxInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/cosmic.summit/Website: https://thetitan.network/---#CosmicSummit #ArtificialIntelligence #ScanningElectronMicroscopy #OpenScience #911Research #DeepHistory #TitanNetwork
