I read something about getting an offer to the CDC or something like that, congratulations for it ! So now I dedicate that puzzle for you ;A scientist is experimenting with bacteria that are one micron in diameter and that reproduce by dividing every minute into two bacteria. At 12:00 PM, she puts a single organism in a container. At precisely 1:00 PM, the container is full. At what time was the container half full?

How big was the container?
