Lightest Material on Earth! Posted on DOGO News by Meera Dolasia

Being comprised of 99.99 percent air and small metallic tubes with a width of an 1000th of a human hair, this is the lightest material on earth. Not to mention the cross design gives it the ability to bounce back to 98% of it's original form after being crushed to over half of its size.

Also, the tubes are designed to absorb energy on impact. The design also means that it can be used as a great insulator, a great pressure pad, a great cushion (depending on if you put a cover on it or not) and just about any thing! (Apart from clothes, light fixtures, walls, potato sacks, sound systems....)

And, it's so light, you could put a cm by inch on a dandelion and not crush it! (...televisions, columbs, and missiles. Though, missiles are destructive and you don't really need to make them in the first place)

But imagine what we could do!
