SCIENTISTS CREATED THE LIGHTEST AND STRONGEST NANOMATERIAL EVER

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Researchers at the University of Toronto have created a new material with the toughness of steel that weighs about as much as foam. They used AI to recognize the best configurations of nanostructures to create the tough and impossibly light material. The new nanomaterial can be mass-produced, unlike its predecessors. The lightweight nature of the material could result in more comfortable prosthetics and implants and more efficient vehicles.
