Nanotechnology RECENT NEWS: 11th Foresight Conference on Molecular Nanotechnology, Oct. 9-12, 2003, San Francisco Airport Marriott, Burlingame, CA, USA Foresight Senior Associates Gathering , May 2-4, 2003, Crowne Plaza Cabana, Palo Alto, California The next few paragraphs provide a brief introduction to the core concepts of molecular nanotechnology, followed by links to further reading. Manufactured products are made from atoms. The properties of those products depend on how those atoms are arranged. If we rearrange the atoms in coal we can make diamond. If we rearrange the atoms in sand (and add a few other trace elements) we can make computer chips. If we rearrange the atoms in dirt, water and air we can make potatoes. Todays manufacturing methods are very crude at the molecular level. Casting, grinding, milling and even lithography move atoms in great thundering statistical herds. It's like trying to make things out of LEGO blocks with boxing gloves on your hands. Yes, you can push the LEGO blocks into great heaps and pile them up, but you can't really snap them together the way you'd like. In the future, nanotechnology will let us take off the boxing gloves. We'll be able to snap together the fundamental building blocks of nature easily, inexpensively and in most of the ways permitted by the laws of physics. This will be essential if we are to continue the revolution in computer hardware beyond about the next decade, and will also let us fabricate an entire new generation of products that are cleaner, stronger, lighter, and more precise.

8. Alien Nanotechnology Explores similarities between alien/UFO reports and nanotechnology such as utility fog, quantum particle entanglement, bio suits(exoskeletons), super structures and cell repair machines. http://www.geocities.com/nanomessiah/Alien_Nanotechnology

Many reports claim Earth has been visited by intelligent extraterrestrials, but no solid evidence has come forth. It appears that some of the people that dwell on this planet are either nuts or something very strange is going on. If earth is being used as a type of intergalactic documentary by extraterrestrials, one can imagine that a type of Star Trek Prime Directive is in place. So technological ideas should be thought up by Homo sapiens and not given by some alien race. Some conspiracy theories state that current advances in technology are due to extraterrestrial involvement, either by... 1 Aliens give secret government agencies highly advance technology. 2 UFO crashes are salvaged and studied by military scientists. I have read many alien/UFO reports and found many similarities with ideas of molecular nanotechnology. Here are a few that I have encountered. 1 Aliens are seen often with one piece suits, appearing like diving suits. Bio space suits with millions of molecular machines. The suit is in essence an exoskeleton, as envisioned by Eric Drexler.

Foresight Update 26 - Table of Contents Foresight Update 26 Page 3 A publication of the Foresight Institute Foresight Update 26 - Table of Contents Challenges of Nanotechnology Misuse Cited in New Book on "Human Extinction" by Lew Phelps In his new book, The End of the World: The Science and Ethics of Human Extinction , philosopher John Leslie provides a broader view for those who are worried about nanotechnology-caused accidents. He devotes exactly three of his 310 pages to potential threats arising from nanotechnology. However, in that short space he suggests a Draconian political solution that many people will find unacceptable. The problem of nanotechnology misuse is almost lost within Leslie's large catalog of possible life-ending natural disasters (volcanic eruption, asteroid hits, nearby supernova, etc.), man-made disasters (unwillingness to rear children, genetic engineering run amok, production of a new Big Bang in the laboratory, etc.), and "risks from philosophy" (threats associated with religion, Schopenhauerian pessimism, ethical relativism, etc.). As farfetched as such problems may seem individually, this is a thoughtful and carefully written book whose conclusions deserve attention. Leslie's treatise arises from a "doomsday argument" advanced by cosmologist Brandon Carter, summed up as, "
