Description Oh the magic of buckyballs. How these nanoscopic little bits of carbon can be webbed together into materials rivaling steel and spiders silk. How your golden hide is able to flow through the blood stream and find tumors at ease. What a wonderous creation....


lol... ignore that, i just got back from a nanotechnology research/developmetn facility and am feeling nerdy. Going to try and do a 30 day challenge....probably wont go well but well see.

lol thanks, and na those cute magnets were inspired by carbon nano-sized particles of the same name. They are used primarily for armour and fibers as they can be harder then diamonds. They were created by R. Buckminster Fuller (hense bucky balls) and can be used as antioxidants, purifiers and for certain cancer treatments. [link]
