E-book
Science, technology & experiments
Learn about bioinnovation, nanotechnology and hydrogen fuel, with lots of experiments that you can do at home!
Scientists and inventors get a lot of their ideas from nature. Have you ever wondered how spiders build their webs or why calcium makes bones strong? Check out “Nature’s Building Materials” on page 8.
If you’re interested in tiny robots and nanotechnology, take a look at “What if Old McDonald had a Nanofarm?” on page 18. Learn about their present and possible future uses, from transforming desert soil into farmland to making pig poo less stinky. And on page 29, learn how to make Wondergel for growing beans at home.
Hydrogen could make fuel cells that never go flat and cars with no carbon emissions. But these fuel cells are made of expensive and extremely rare platinum - could nanotechnology be the key to make this dream a reality? Plus, make your own electric motor at home with a battery, wire and a magnet.
