Original Note:
The image above shows a gestational sac, not the aborted embryo that was developing inside it. At 8 weeks' gestational age (8 weeks after a missed period), the embryo would have a length of roughly 15mm (0.6in) from head to buttocks, which is easily visible at this scale. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crown-rump_length https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/oct/18/pregnancy-weeks-abortion-tissue
