Sip Posted May 8, 2003 Report Share Posted May 8, 2003 House Approves $2.4 Billion for Nanotech Research Article on yahoo. Wooo Hooo ... that's great news!!! Such an exciting area of research with so much potential a few decades down the road Nanotech firms have already introduced wrinkle- and stain-resistant cotton fabrics, food packaging that keeps meat fresh longer, and windows that are easier to clean. Boosters say microscopic computers, cancer-fighting molecules and nonpolluting automobile engines could be on the horizon Combine nano-technology (especially nano-computers) with MEMS (Micro Electrical Mechanical Systems) sensors and actuators, and the possibilities are limitless! I even heard talk of minature nuclear-powered batteries that can run for a LONG time before dying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
