3D printing, additive manufacturing -----

Back to the future ---- or the past

One of the comments made by "those who work on captured UFO's" is that they have no seams or fasteners, as tho they were made "in one piece".

[NoOneImportant]

And while I might initially conclude, as Gerald outlined, UFOs created of seamless structures as preposterous. I am inclined to hesitate, as one of the established goals of nano technology is the creation of physical micro structures built individual molecule by individual molecule - a current lab reality. While 3D printing doesn't use nano technology, who is to say that a hybrid of 3D and nano technology might create anything imaginable in our future.

To those who would say: "NO, it's just too preposterous." It is interesting to note that early NASA custom limited run stampings consisted of a mold - a mold created in the desired shape - a sheet of the desired material to be "stamped", and a considerable amount of explosive to, in essence, stamp the metal into the mold when detonated. While we might be inclined to say: who would use anything so crude? The answer is "we would", and did.

I first became interested in 3D printing in the mid to late 90s when the 3D technology was alternatively called: stereo lithography. I actually expected the equivalent of 3D reproduction centers to spring up all over the US, much as Kinko copying centers exist today. Centers expressly created to support limited production run development engineering, and limited production run requirements - but, alas, such was not to be the case - guess I should have borrowed a bunch of money, and rolled the dice - no hair I guess (it's an old expression).

Others have said, " it appears some of the craft where "grown" as in very advanced 3d printing?

[NoOneImportant]

Or advanced nano tech., where the item is more grown, than made: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOujRp2xKTY

[NoOneImportant]

Or for a bit more, it's 34 minuets https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icHRs3qMj9g, and www.nanotechnology-product.com. A future more grown than built.

Thanks for the links. -- It has been said that technology to the primitive or uninformed is like "magic".
