Carbon nanotubes seem to be the real life version of chemical vat accidents or radiation exposure in comic books.
I think they also fed some carbon nanotubes to a spider and managed to get stronger silk. Like what's going on here?
I'm hoping that the scientists involved know what they are doing because from a layman perspective it just looks like carbon nanotubes can be added to anything to give it super powers.

- robotnikman 6y agoYep. Inhaling carbon nanotubes has similar effects on the lungs as inhaling asbestos from what I've heard
- samatman 6y agoGraphene as well: there's a running gag that adding graphene makes everything better, except for products. So like every battery breakthrough that's ever been announced, I'll applaud, and then ignore it until I have one in my pocket. The lithium batteries we have right now are Goodenough, after all.
