Check this out----it is amazing at what progress is being made in all sorts of research: http://news.yahoo.com/worlds-lightest-solid-takes-inspiration-eiffel-tower-134809070.html

Kinda makes me wish I had been better at math and other such areas of study.

Awesome link, Voltie but it does make me wonder how strong it's gonna be. The way they are making cars now even a fender bender is a total, but the ones from the 60's and 70's were built like tanks.

Volty,

Just when we think it's impossible for human "beans" to come up with anything new, they invent something like that ultra-light metal. The photo of it resting upon a dandelion bloom is an amazing illustration of it's lack of weight!


DD,

Until I watched this.....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joMK1WZjP7g.... I believed the same thing.

I could not see how one of the new, "Plastic wonders" could survive a crash with one of the "tanks" we used to have.

This is an amazing video and an eye-opener for me!
