It’s One Atom Thick, It’s Stronger Than Anything on Earth. What Can We Do With Graphene?
Graphene is a two-dimensional material, one atom thick, that is the world’s thinnest and also its strongest material. It is made of carbon atoms.

It was discovered in 2004 by Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov at the University of Manchester, and they won the 2010 Nobel Prize in physics for their discovery. Scientists are just beginning to discover and test the many potential uses for this material. Here are a few:


1. Unbelievably Teeny Tiny Antennae to Control Smart Dust

Swarms of micron-sized machines have hit a development barrier. Communication is key in controlling the swarm, and at that size, it is very difficult to manage, explains a Giz Mag article.

Researchers at Georgia Tech have discovered, however, that graphene can be used to make extremely small antennae that work with about the same efficiency as larger antennae made of conventional materials. We’re closer to being able to create swarms of microscopic machines, for better or for worse.

Actually I think the elite (who believe they will live forever and rule the planet with their musical God) are doing the R&D on it. Then, once they cull the planet to their liking, they plan on putting stuff like this to use....for themselves.

The terrorists attacks which will be launched in the United States will be blamed upon middle eastern religious fanatics, Christian fundamentalists, white supremacists, Patriots, or Militias. A more immediate result of these operations will be the increased use of military forces, weaponry, and equipment such as tanks and armored personnel carriers in civilian law enforcement, the suspension or elimination of Habeas Corpus, the elimination of jury trials, the attempted disarming of the American People, and the institution of martial law with show-trials conducted by a tribunal of judges. - William Cooper 1997 (RIP)

Make super dense bullets that can rip a man's torso apart.

Make super dense guns that can harness even greater kinetic energy and greater density bullets.

Start adding super dense graphene to military tanks.

Make super dense bullet proof vests that also can cover or protect joints.

3D print with it? First create a one atom thick layer. Now print another layer on top of that. Now create another layer on top of that. Keep going until you have the shape you want.

Body armor. Anything to do with safety gear. Car bodies. Machine parts. Program them to kill bacteria for sterile environment... If you can build things that small and program and remote control them the possibilities are endless. Think of programmable robotic white blood cells that could be introduced into the blood stream to fight cancers and deadly infections.

 Quoting: ANHEDONIC


The word antenna makes me think it will be implanted in our bodies by the higher powers.
“The living being had no need of eyes because there was nothing outside of him to be seen; nor of ears because there was nothing to be heard; and there was no surrounding atmosphere to be breathed; nor would there have been any use of organs by the help of which he might receive his food or get rid of what he had already digested, since there was nothing which went from him or came into him: for there was nothing beside him. Of design he created thus; his own waste providing his own food, and all that he did or suffered taking place in and by himself. For the Creator conceived that a being which was self-sufficient would be far more excellent than one which lacked anything; and, as he had no need to take anything or defend himself against any one, the Creator did not think it necessary to bestow upon him hands: nor had he any need of feet, nor of the whole apparatus of walking; but the movement suited to his spherical form which was designed by him, being of all the seven that which is most appropriate to mind and intelligence; and he was made to move in the same manner and on the same spot, within his own limits revolving in a circle. All the other six motions were taken away from him, and he was made not to partake of their deviations. And as this circular movement required no feet, the universe was created without legs and without feet.” -Plato
