A MIRACLE material for the 21st century could protect your home against bomb
blasts, mop up oil spillages and even help man to fly to Mars.


Aerogel, one of the world’s lightest solids, can withstand a direct blast of
1kg of dynamite and protect against heat from a blowtorch at more than
1,300C.


Scientists are working to discover new applications for the substance, ranging
from the next generation of tennis rackets to super-insulated space suits
for a manned mission to Mars

this could be extremely interesting!
