Nanotechnology is about creativity and innovativeness of the human mind, James K. Gimsewski, Professor, Department of Chemistry and biochemistry, California Nanosystems Institute, says.
The 21st century had seen rapid changes in many areas of science and technology including medicine and a common thread linking them was the atomic and molecular nature of understanding of the concepts.
U.s., Germany, Japan and Korea are leading the world in nanotechnology.
Nanotechnology had led to the growth of aerospace industries, atomic energy, biomedical engineering and communication engineering.

Nanotechnology is the design, characterization, production and application of structures, devices and systems by controlling shape and size at the nanoscale. Eight to ten atoms span one nanometer (nm). The human hair is approximately 70,000 to 80,000 nm thick.
Nanotechnology should really be called “nanotechnologies”: There is no single field of nanotechnology. The term broadly refers to such fields as biology, physics or chemistry, any scientific field, or a combination thereof, that deals with the deliberate and controlled manufacturing of nanostructures.The United States' National Nanotechnology Initiative website defines it as follows: "Nanotechnology is the understanding and control of matter at dimensions of roughly 1 to 100 nanometers, where unique phenomena enable novel applications."

The more populated earth becomes, the need to save space will prevail. Nanotechnology will be ever lasting.

I'm not going to look it up on line because you should have. lol. i believe its a new type of metal. its like fused atoms of steel . all i know is the space elevator needs it. its 3 ft wide and paper thin and has like an 80 ton psi strength. and something about hard drive magnets and a 2 inch by 2 inch hard drive will hold all the books in the us library

I'm in favor of it. The best things come in small packages and size really does matter.
