Dear Teach: No longer science fiction-it's real

Hi Boys and Girls.

There was a time man could only dream about being invisible. Well, now 27 Science Fictions That Became Science Facts in 2012 are featured in MYSCIENCEACADEMY, including being invisible. From hacking into the human brain to producing silk stronger than steel, we as a planet of engineering scientists continue to make break throughs. Take a look here at the 27 latest science facts.

At the University of Wyoming, scientists modified a group of silkworms to produce silk that is, weight for weight, stronger than steel. Different groups hope to benefit from the super-strength silk, including stronger sutures for the medical community, a biodegradable alternative to plastics, and even lightweight armor for military purposes.

What do you predict the next great break through will be? Flying cars? Flying people? Just about anything your imagination can dream up will most likely be created sooner or later. So take a moment to dream. Send me your latest invention with a brief explanation and year you believe it to become reality. 

Be Well.
