Nanotechnology The Dark Secret Of Hendrik Schon 2004
TVRip 49m 479MB
Documentary, Technology
Imagine a world where disease could be eradicated by an injection of tiny robots the size of molecules. That is the hope offered by nanotechnology - the science of microscopically small machines. But others fear nanotechnology could lead to a non-biological cancer - where swarms of tiny nanobots come together and literally devour human flesh.
Sounds like science fiction? It certainly did until a brilliant young scientist called Hendrik Schön seemed to bring it a step closer.
Horizon explores the debate surrounding nanotechnology, the science of microscopic machines, which has polarised international opinion. The programme analyses the breakthrough made by Hendrik Schon, creator of the world's first organic transistor. His efforts appeared to take the scientific community one step closer to being able to grow tiny computers as living cells, but the outcome of his work had greater repercussions than anyone could have predicted.
Scientists speculated about how these tiny machines could be used to target diseases with astonishing precision. Others wondered - could the military use them as a new weapon? Others, including Prince Charles, were terrified. If these machines can grow by themselves, how do we stop them from growing?
What happened next would destroy reputations and shatter lives - because there was more to Hendrik Schön's discovery than anyone knew.
'From a small seed a mighty trunk may grow.' - Aeschylus (c. 525-456 BC)
Billy Pilgrim eşi, Valencia ile mutlu bir şekilde yaşıyor. Ancak onun davranış giderek kızı Barbara, oğlu Stanley ve Robert Vietnam'dan dönen oğlu endişeli. Aslında, Billy zaman seyahat hediye vardır. Kendisi ilk önce iki IM, savaş esiri tarafından saldırıya İkinci Dünya Savaşı sırasında bir asker görünce Dresden bombalama tarihinin ölümcül kalbinde bulur.
