Researchers have created a new metallic material that they claim is the world's lightest solid material. With a density of just 0.9 mg/cm3 the material is around 100 times lighter than Styrofoam and ...

The video above offers an explanation of the lightest metal structure to ever exist. A material called micro lattice. The material was created by HRL Laboratories, which is owned by Boeing and partly ...

A new metallic micro-lattice material which has been developed by a team of researchers from the University of California, has become the world’s lightest material. The new micro-lattice material is ...

This, we assure you, is a real photograph. Researchers at the University of California Irvine have developed a material that is as strong as metal yet 100 times lighter than Styrofoam. The material is ...

Photograph of metallic micro lattice, the world's lightest weight material as of 11/2011, fabricated by UC Irvine, Caltech and HRL Labs. The material is light enough to balance atop a dandelion ...
