“Average Human Height now less than 100 Nanotubes”
June 5th, 2007
A catchy blog posting title. The author, Ravi Krishnamurthy, notes that since carbon nanotubes nearly two centimeters long can now be grown, stacking 100 of these would be taller than the average human height. I guess that’s one way to measure progress.
Ravi’s blog posting is here and the original press release is here.
