    Remember the metal fragments from so-called Roswell UFO accident as depicted in movies etc? These mylar type material could not be scratched or burned. It is possible that as we start building polymer based flexible display devices or flexible CD-ROMs, we may need to coat them with one or more layers of carbon molecules (perhaps bonded with other atoms) for scratch and heat resistance.

    May be those fragments used a similar technology.

    Interesting...
    Yup, no doubt, our own technology will someday reach a point where it looks like it could only have come from outer space...

    Although, I myself always envisioned some kind of very powerful force field being imposed on the unscratchable metal during its construction, a field that the metal maintains permanently in order to hold its form. And it's like the lightning blast temporarilly weakoned the field among the pannels of the ship and caused them to loosen and disengage from each other, naturally causing the ship to fall apart and crash.
    Does anyone see any feasibility here, or have I just been over-influenced by the movie of the guy watching the metal unfold itself?

    Unfortunately, if we ever do develop similar technology, it will be of little use for improving the resilliency of our data disks; the electrical signals on the disk would cause the disk itself to distort and change shape... Also with computer monitors, etc.

    Weird, eh?

    How about starlight
    have you heard of it? The government does not deny it exists. It cannot be cut,burned, etc they placed it at ground zero of a nuclear explosion no problem it came out fine. The question is were did we get something like this?

    Whoa....
    You must tell me more of this "starlight" material... I have never heard of it.

    Has the "government" (I hate that term, its too ambigous. These discussions would be so much more fact based if we would name the department, or head of the department) admitted the existence of this "starlight" material? What evidence is there of the materials existence?

    I first heard of this material from my
    physics professor (former senior engineer for U.S. Navy) and became fascinated not only from the way he described it but the resemblance to wreckage found from the Roswell crash. It is gray in color and has an oily surface. It's formed from two liquid plastics. I'm not sure which department revealed this material or why they would not classify it. Information about this material is hard to find.The last bit of information I obtained through a friend is that the material can be bought although I'm sure it's very expensive. I'm also sure this material is being used on our next generation aircraft (or saucers?). Before making anything with this material, it is important to remember that once something is constructed from starlight the only thing you can do to get rid of it is to bury it in the ground or send it off into space. If anyone aquires more information
    please share it with me.

    Some time ago, I saw a TV program about a lady who developed grey gypsum like material that almost does not conduct heat. It was tested and we were told that they use it to work in crude oil pumping station fires to protect the fire fighters. Could this be the material?

    Flexible CD-ROMs have already been developed (Wired magazine).

    If it can be destroyed at all then no it's not the same.
