WAR ON TERROR
Sinds 2001
heeft Amerika 1500 miljard dollar besteed aan de voortslepende "war
on terror", de strijd tegen terreur. Die strijd was één van de
belangrijkste thema's gisteren in het debat tussen Romney en Obama.
1500 miljard klinkt veel, maar de schade is waarschijnlijk nog veel
groter in de landen die aan het front liggen van die oorlog tegen
terreur. In Pakistan bijvoorbeeld, waar de tekenen van een snelle
economische achteruitgang steeds zichtbaarder worden.

The strange new world of Nanoscience, narrated by Stephen Fry

Where and what is nano? How will it shape our future? Nanoscience is the study of phenomena and manipulation of materials at the nanoscale, where properties differ significantly from those at a larger scale. The strange world of Nanoscience – it can take you into atoms and beyond the stars.
The nanoscale ranges from 100 nanometres down to the atomic level, where a nanometre is a millionth part of a millimetre.
Manipulating shape and size at nanometre scale, nanotechnologists are producing a wide variety of applications that take profit of the properties that this scale offers. Nowadays, thousands of researchers around the world are investigating the new contributions that NT can bring us by designing, characterizing and producing new structures, devices and systems.
