A tough, black composite material called "carboncarbon" covers the Solar Probe craft, NASA's latest project to study the sun. Carbon-carbon is made by laying a cloth of carbon fibres into a mould, wetting it with an epoxy resin, and burning away the epoxy in an oven. This material is extremely stiff and lightweight, and can endure extremely high temperatures. ## ˾ Green Plastics Cause Concern for Environmentalists Certain types of plastics can be grown in the leaves and stems of corn plants. Although some biochemical engineers believed they were the environmental answer to having completely biodegradable plastics, the energy required to produce them and the carbon dioxide and methane released when they break down pose serious environmental concerns. In fact, harvesting and processing the plastic uses more non-renewable resources than current plastic manufacturing practices. ˾ Are Molecular Semi-Conductors Possible? Scientists are working on building molecules that function exactly like or similar to semi-conductor devices, such as diodes, transistors, and conductors, in computers. Because computer chips keep shrinking in size, problems such as heat dissipation, stray signals, and l
