Scientists Created the Lightest and Strongest Nanomaterial Ever

Summary

Nutrition label

75% Informative

An AI algorithm was taught to produce the lightest and strongest possible geometric structure for a nanomaterial.

The result was a carbon nanolattice that is light enough to sit on a soap bubble without breaking it, but can also support more than a million times its own mass.

This new material could eventually have applications from lighter cars and rockets that need less fuel to medical equipment, such as prosthetics that are easier to wear.
