Microscopic Robots… this will make you think…

March 11th, 2008 by Katrina Gallagher

The BBC have another article about the uses of nanotechnology… they describe how ‘machines’ the size of just 17 molecules can be controlled with a type of microscope (scanning tunnelling microscope).

It’s like something from a science fiction film… and part of me wonders if they’re just making it up!

    No its fact, but I understand why people might think its fiction. If you read “Prey” by Michael Crichton it will give you a better understanding though this is a fictional story its based loosely around fact. Its already in certain type of paint that can keep themselves clean. Scary stuff!
