Sundays sometimes provide me with a bit of surfing time on the web, though I should be doing more productive things. Here's something of interest I ran across today - a report of a new material called 'buckypaper' - ultra-tiny cylinders known as carbon nanotubes that are "10 times lighter but potentially 500 times stronger than steel when sheets of it are stacked and pressed together to form a composite" It would be a ways off into the future, but it seems like a material that could be of use in instrument building some of these days. http://tech.yahoo.com/news/ap/20081018/ap_on_hi_te/tec_buckypaper john |
