Tightly packed molecules lend unexpected strength to nanothin sheet of material. Scientists at the University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory have discovered the surprising strength of a sheet of nanoparticles that measures just 50 atoms in thickness. Its an amazing little marvel, said Heinrich Jaeger, Professor in Physics at the University of Chicago. This is not a very fragile layer, but rather a robust, resilient membrane........

The rise in global terrorism in recent years has brought significant attention to the needs for more advanced sensors and defense technologies to protect civilians and soldiers. Next-generation laser-based defense systems are now being designed for this need, including the use of infrared countermeasures to protect aircraft from heat-seeking missiles and highly sensitive chemical detectors for reliable early detection of trace explosives and other toxins at a safe distance for personnel........

There is no doubt that nanotechnology has the potential to make the world a better place, said Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies Chief Scientist Andrew Maynard. But if consumers and other stakeholders are not convinced that the benefits outweigh the risks, a number of applications will not see the light of day. Likewise, if the benefits are unclear and the risks uncertain, the products of nanotechnology will be a hard sell........

Blaise Aguera y Arcas demonstrates some new technology for registering and interacting with images. Make sure you wait for the end: a three dimensional reconstruction of Notre Dame Cathedral constructed by a computer using people’s digital camera photos downlFlickr.
I would love to see this technology adopted for scientific publication. His sample page from the Guardian was a great example of how it would work. Figures could be much richer and “supplementary” information (which is often important for a paper’s narrative but is left out because of space .........
