A new type of material called Aerogel was developed in the 1930s. It is the lightest solid material known to man and can be used as insulation, filtration, and even a protective coating. Graphene is one of the strongest materials ever discovered and is composed of a single layer of carbon atoms in a honeycomb-like lattice structure. A new type of material called 'invisible gold' is being developed that is made up of gold nanowires and has the ability to absorb electromagnetic radiation.
