It is important for scientists to communicate their results accurately so that they can be used. Other scientists use this information for their own research. Accuracy in reported experimental results is critical for many reasons:
1. Unless the reported results are accurate, other scientists may be unable repeat the experiment successfully.
2. Inaccurate results could result in bad decisions being made based on incorrect data.
3. Inaccurate results could throw off the results of other experiments that rely on that data.
4. In some cases, inaccurate results could end up being dangerous, resulting in an explosion or poisoning.

Sure, everything you see is made of atoms, therefore you can see
things made of atoms.
But the atoms themselves are too small to see without using
special types of microscopes: e.g. atomic force microscope,
scanning tunneling microscope.
