Well are we seeing the actual electron itself? Or the 'trail ' it leaves? I think this astounding, I truly do. I don't fully understand most of this article, to be honest, but I could see those white blips that I assume are the electrons. (WOW!) When I was a child, the science books said that you could not see atoms, or electrons, and it was long way off in the future til you could look at a magazine to see the place in the galaxy where stars are being born. The future has surpassed itself. It enough to make you stop in the middle of your daily path through life, and contemplate the universe. I cannot say I fully understand this, but it IS amazing.
