Nanotechnology

In my view, nanotechnology has a myriad of potential applications. In molecular medicine, millions of nanorobots could stream through the body chipping plaque from arteries, scouring toxins from our bloodstream and repairing broken blood vessels. In principle, nanorobots could make anything from apples to airplanes. They could make diamonds in any shape at all, creating futuristic materials of incredible strength and versatility. Specialized nanorobots could also be employed to render toxic waste harmless or to seek out and remove pollutants from contaminated streams.
