Nano-scale car models made up of a few atoms with modified buckminsterfullerene tires and carbon nanotube axles. That's all.
Be sure and use a very small painting brush.-- RayfordSteele, Jul 27 2006 Nano Cars http://www.physorg.com/news7438.htmlEv'rything's bigger in Texas. Er, Well. [Zimmy, Jul 28 2006] Baked.
sp. Buckminsterfullerene-- daseva, Jul 28 2006 Baked? Mind giving a link to a photo - or an electron micrograph, as the case may be?-- lurch, Jul 28 2006 Well you could have a model of the galaxy at that scale and it would be quite nice.-- marklar, Jul 28 2006 [marklar] Hmm, don't think so. Our milky way galaxy is said to be approx. 10^5 light years across. A light year is about 9.5x10^12 meters, so your "nano-scale" model would still be almost 10^9 meters across.-- csea, Jul 28 2006 nice, [marklar]. [csea], at least we can sit at the moon by then...-- rotary, Apr 23 2008 Wow, [Zimmy] - that's a not-very-big-at-all car.-- wagster, Apr 24 2008 Yeah, but the handling's crap. Clarkson said so.-- coprocephalous, Apr 24 2008 We should send that link to Top Gear and see if they cover it.-- wagster, Apr 24 2008 They'd need a pico-Stig.-- coprocephalous, Apr 24 2008 And the suspension is as stiff as a Planck.-- Ling, Apr 24 2008 FYI, a model Earth at this scale would be about half-an-inch in diameter.-- coprocephalous, Apr 24 2008 halfbakery
