Nanatechnology (Part 1)

Could the people lived in 50’s imagine that scientist can rearrange or restructure molecules? It is called nanotechnology and almost 50 years ago, a famous scientist named Richard Feynman predicted nanotechnology, all before anyone had even seen an atom with a microscope. It was 1959, only two years after the first satellite was launched into space and two years before men did first spaceflight. Richard Feynman explained his ideas when he was in California Institute of Technology for the meeting which is organized every year by American Physical Society. [1] In 29 December 1959, he asked the basic question in front of lots of important scientist. “Why can’t we write the entire 24 volumes of the Encyclopedia Britannica on the head of a pin?” [2] By the time he mentioned how important and possible nanotechnology is, no one could even guess about it. However he was one step ahead of the time that he lived and tried to show future, importance of nanotechnology.
