In the past, researchers managed to map out a fruit fly larvae’s brain. But this is the first time we’ve seen such a detailed 3D brain map of any organism, and it is truly spectacular to behold.

Researchers have mapped the more than 500,000 connections in the intricate brain of a fruit fly larva. This map, they say, could help scientists figure out how learning changes the human brain, too.
