United States, Japan and Asia-Pacific collectively command over 72% of the world microscopes market as stated by the recent report published by Global Industry Analysts, Inc. Asia-Pacific represents the fastest growing market for microscopes at a CAGR of 11.2% over the 2011-2015 period. The rapid pace of industrialization in developing countries such as India, China, Thailand, Taiwan and South Korea, is expected to boost global demand for microscopes in the upcoming years. Developing markets are additionally emerging into hot-spots for production activities with manufacturers increasingly relocating production activities from the saturating Western Europe and North America markets to Eastern Europe and Asia Pacific, in an attempt to cut costs.
How has the universe been formed and evolved? What about the Milky Way consisting of tens of billions of stars? These questions have kept people wondering in the whole history of human civilization.
