Gasoline is extremely useful but not as a replacement for water. Graphene is an extremely useful material. But you can’t blame the material if someone uses it with malicious intent.
Egg Zachary, well I was looking into it, and it seems a novel prize for physics was awarded to a dude for graphene back in 2010, and 2020 was the 10th year anniversary, but I could not find any others for graphene that have been passed out.
The article seemed to imply that graphene is not even real? Just a hypothetical material?
Andre Geim and Konstantin Novoselov won a physics Nobel Prize for their construction of Graphene, described as carbon arranged in a hexagonal lattice and only one atom thick. They produced something that existed only in theory. Graphene was to find applications in materials technology and electronics.
I didn’t know you could win Nobel prize for just making stuff up. 🤡. Is this for real? Where are the physicfags
I noticed they say it's only a 2 dimensional material. And I'm over here, as an engineer aka (physicfag) wondering how in the hell 2 dimensional objects can exist in a 3 dimensional world... I guess because it's only 1 atom thick?? But then what about the subatomic particles? Seems like a matter of perspective... get it...? Matter of Perspective...
It’s “2D” in the same sense that a drawing on a piece of paper is “2D”. Of course if you look close enough you’ll find some thickness, but for most practical purposes the object stretches out in only two dimensions.
It's real, the Nobel prize was much afterthey were already observing it. It's just expensive and hard to make do you won't see graphene tires or shoes.
"They produced something that existed only in theory."
If they had added [up until that point] it would perhaps be clearer, but it is quite implied. Ie, it was theorized up until it was then proven to exist.
Edit: Air, and it's various elements, was also at one time theoretical.
Because the management of the Nobel price has been stolen by the very same people who kicked Nobel out. It was when he got rich for inventing the dynamite they suddenly got interested, in his money.

Physics humor! Love it!
That’s a good point....isn’t one atom technically 3 D

Reading comprehension.

You’re right. I didn’t read it correctly.
The intent was probably:

Interesting
Indeed. This man seemed to start off down the right track to invention, and then...

Well that was an interesting read ... especially the last part.
