1st Runner Up: Nano TARDIS by Dale of Tulsa, OK!

The Tardis has gone to another time-space dimension, the nano-world. The Universe’s smallest Tardis was made at The University of Tulsa by the Nanotechnology Institute’s Micro and Nano Fabrication Laboratory. A beam of gallium ions within the scanning electron microscope was used to mill the Tardis on a human hair freeing the Doctor for his tiniest, but one of his most interesting adventures ever. Accompanying him on this adventure were Paige Johnson, the Nano- Lab Manager; Dr. Michael Keller, an Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering, and Dale Teeters, Professor of Chemistry.
See a video of finding the Tardis on the hair: 

Materials:

• Hair from Dr Michael Keller alias for another Doctor
• Scanning Electron MicroscopeFocused Ion Beam System
• Beam of Gallium Ions

Just one more day until we announce the winner of the Where’s The TARDIS contest! Who will receive the grand prize of all 47 years of Doctor Who *plus* an exclusive premiere screening in their hometown? Watch Saturday night’s BBC America premiere of Doctor Who: ‘A Good Man Goes To War’ to find out!

Um

THIS IS NUTS.
