X-Message-Number: 21195 From: Date: Mon, 17 Feb 2003 12:05:12 EST Subject: Nanotech end --part1_77.a5d5db3.2b827048_boundary Content-Type: text/plain; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit What is the end of the road for nanotech? If I have understood something about respirocites and similar would be devices, their aim is to put every biological function in a machine far stronger than the bio one and far smaller, may be ten to one hundred smaller in linear size. Well, assume we do bad sci-fi and forget the "how to" problem. What is the end of the road? Could it be a nano man, not larger than a bug ? Is that an answer to the question: How do you solve the over population problem if people live for a far longer time than now? What about bugs living on other planets without terraforming them? What about animals? nano trees? Are these ideas found in the nano guru writtings? Are there sci-fi stories based on them? could that turn small scalle into a new "dimension" to explore and conquest?
