Nanotechnology: The Revolution of Endless Possibilities What is Nanotechnology?

End to illness, aging, death

Programmable microscopic smart materials

Drexler artificial immune system

• Mmicroscopic submarines
• "Cell Sentinel“

• Ecological

• Reintroduction of many extinct plants and animals
• End to pollution
• For instance, plastics
• Automatic cleanup of already existing pollution
• Viable alternative energy source
• Nanites = “Servants of Humanity”
• Pave roads and create wood

• When Will Nanotechnology Arrive?

• "Arrive", is broadly defined as the arrival of the first "Universal Assembler" that has the ability to build with single atoms anything one's software defines (like a microwave oven)
• Possible creations could include: Doc Martens, Papa John’s, pizza, Pampers’ diapers, and Motorola cell phones
• Tom R. Craver, a prominent nanothinkier asserts that nanotecnology will arrive in “full, undeniable” force by 2030
