A New Durable Metal That's 99% Air? See How It Works
Scientist revealed there was metal so light, that it could sit on top of a dandelion without crushing it back in 2011. Today, we are finally able to see how this incredible material works. It was developed by scientists are the Boeing-owned HRL Laboratories, along side researchers from the California Institute of Technology and the University of California, Irvine.
It's 100 times lighter than styrofoam and constructed in tubes 1000 times thinner than hair. Are you registering all of that information? This stuff is truly incredible.
In that, it's rigid on the outside, but mostly hollow on the inside. That structure is what makes this metal so incredible.
It's like a rubber polymer in that regard, but so much more incredible in other ways.
You could literally blow it right off the palm of your hand like a feather.
The sky literally isn't even the limit as the what this stuff can do.
Science has once again proven the incredible things it can do in this world.Â
