One of the big problems not fully appreciated with current ideas in nano technology research is the energy requirement for the development of shuttles and using it to carry the bots to other planets. First of all, the design of the shuttle would have to be very intricate because it would have to be ...

Nanotechnology The above term coined by Dr Eric Drexler in his book Engines of Creation (1986) was intended to be a new science which would astound the world, having the same effect as the industrial revolution and nuclear power had on us. The word nanotechnology may be a new word to you n...

The novel Prey by the American author Michael Crichton is a techno thriller that shows the issues that may occur in the ever rapidly growing pace of today's scientific advances, and what may happen if the technology grows too fast out of the control of the human race. Expressed throughout the n...

Introduction This project's focus is friction and lubrication. It was done to demonstrate the relationship between friction and lubrication and to educate the reader about the effects friction has on metal as well as the effects lubrication has on friction. The experiment was conducted to sh...

In many recent studies researchers have found that looking at the microscopic level for new developments in engineering has yielded excellent results. These researchers are beginning to see that materials which are readily available will behave much differently when they are restructured on a nanome...

Summary-Nanotechnology May Aid EnvironmentNanotechnology is considered a clean technology, also a key to solving some current environmental problems. The field of nanotechnology is rapidly growing. The time has been cut from five to ten years down to two or three years, according to Mihail Roco, Nat...

Immortality has been highly sought after by many individuals since the beginning of time. It is also in our biological nature to keep living and reproducing, thus maintaining our family line. Immortality is the ability to live on to your heart's content and cheat natural death. You can still di...

Recent developments in Nanotechnology (a technology that concerns structures, devices and phenomena where the critical functionality occurs on a length scale which encompasses the range between atomic distances and the limit of optical resolution 0.1nm to 250nm), and Bionanotechnology (a branch of N...

AbstractThe Fiscal Policy of the United States over the decades has changed back and forth between classic and Keynesian principles. This paper examines the effect of both on the economy and how classic is a better approach to fiscal responsibility then Keynesian. Fiscal Policy of the United States...
