This may be a hard topic to believe, but scientists are on the verge of developing materials that will turn objects and humans invisible. The mixture of materials have properties that keep light from absorbing or reflected, which allows light from behind the object to be seen. The theory behind this is that the material bend visible light in such a way that the creation of reflections or shadows are eliminated.

It is said that the materials work in limited wavelengths, meaning that they will be unable to hide buildings from satellites. This research is only the beginning to a new age of technology. If there is more news about this subject, we'll keep you posted. Who knows, maybe someday we'll become the "invisible nation"?

Researchers have found a component in mussels that proves vital for future substances in glue. The glue is adhesive due to high amounts of mussel protein. This concentration makes it possible to stick to almost every surface imaginable. It is even able to stick to Teflon. Unlike any other glues, this one is even able to retain a bond under water, while other substances would come undone. If you are interested in the chemistry of this glue, feel free to visit the link provided below.
