If someone has real patience to read this complete article, he needs to know very little about nanotechnology. However, science has seen very fast-paced developments in this field. Still, when every possible life on Earth finds nanotechnology accessible and friendly, only the research under a microscope is fruitful. Imagine a super-intelligent race of animals spending their TIME and FORTUNE on things they can only see through either MICROSCOPE or a TELESCOPE — big Salute to this race.

A famous personality by the name of Elon Musk believes that Earth cannot sustain all the lives and must b abandoned by the end of this century; how futuristic! And trust me, he is investing his fortune to prove or make it believe that humans can spend their lives on Mars.

It can be said that an article about nanotechnology inducing thoughts of space-time is beyond the horizon, but you should remember that there are two sides to a coin. Here, the two sides are Planck Length and Light Years, and we are somewhere in the middle, varying from 0 to some meters.

Nanotechnology is being hailed as miraculous innovation that will help living beings with life-saving ailments. Still, since it is not a perfect or perfectly achieved technology, it has a price tag.

So high that some people will forget the number of 0s it has in it, so basically, it’s useless in Today’s field of science and medicine. If you think that Cure is better than prevention, then you need to rethink your ideologies. In small words, nanotechnology so far now is for the rich people; it’s a place where investors will keep their money and wait for its stakes to rocket sky high, and then they will dig their returns out of the persons using their technology.

It is a game of science, not of someone who eats sleep and repeats “Money Money Money.”

Great use of nanotechnology or its concept is being broadcasted to the ordinary people through Silver Screen effects, namely Marvel’s Iron Man and Spider-Man; they have been seen using particles naming nanobots powered by an “Arc Reactor” (relative to Tesla coil). But this is the work of fiction and visionaries.
What works in real life will matter the most; this technology is believed to replace the damaged tissue/organs, can be used as replacements of any, can be used as any material in real life.

Technologies using encryptions and decryptions are area and receptor-specific; they can be programmed to help ailment in specific regions, namely cancer-targeted cells.

I’ve had heard about biotechnology eliminating the traits of a crop so that the best is always yielded; however while compromising the quality index, the yield of grains and pulses dropped its quantity significantly low. I believe quality and quantity don’t come hand in hand.

If you are reading till this point, then I suppose you got to know that nanotechnology is not yet for the People; it’s safer only in the hands of someone who knows its use, as you know everything has two sides of it, the greater the good, the more dangerous its vices. Nano sized particles can enter our lungs or even the bloodstream uninterrupted. The immune system will not recognize them as friendly and will accumulate over any part of our body.

Humans and Gods are not so different; the only difference is the amount of self-control or the will to do good, will make someone a Human, God or arguably the Devil himself, because anything beyond the understanding of all men can either help in catastrophic situations or wreak havoc in peaceful places, just like the ongoing War between Syria & Palestine.

Concluding with two thoughts, firstly a famous road saying is “Speed thrills, but kills” same goes for this too since it is a fast-paced technology replicating and development in nanoscale, it is almost impossible to track where it is going, a single cell of Sperm and Ovum takes 280 days to create a human imagine what will be the result after almost 30 years of research.

Secondly, as human beings, the best life form on mother earth, why would we make mistakes knowingly to repair them?

We are failing as an advanced organism; we are the ones polluting the air, destroying the water purity, killing animals, the soils are less fertile, the foods tamper, the sun is hottest. We believe nanotechnology will save our existence. What a joke!
