Nanotubes Hold Human Weight
Posted on Jul 20, 08 09:31 PM PDT
Nicola Pugno of the Polytechnic of Turin in Italy has figured out a way to spread invisible nanotubes 5 micrometers apart that he says could support an entire human. The resulting "cable" would measure 1 centimeter in diameter and weigh just 10 milligrams per kilometer. Now, what would the implications of this discovery mean to the world of science? It could very well mean a total change in the architectural field. We'll just have to wait and see.
