    No it does not. It captures only the physical structures. There’s also chemical and electrical state that’s missing.

      Think of this:

      You find a computer from 1990. You take a picture (image) of the 1KB memory chip which is on a RAM stick, there are 4 RAM sticks. You are using a DSLR camera. Your image in RAW comes out at 1GB. You project because there’s 8 chips per stick, and 4 sticks it’ll 32GB to image your 4KB of RAM.

      You’ve described nothing about the ram. This measurement is meaningless other than telling you how detailed the imaging process is.
