That’s cool. Hopefully it is also safe to make for people and for nature around where it could be manufactured.

I have yet to read an “as strong as / stronger than steel” that wasn’t bullshit in some way.

Yeah so far it seems to be stronger than steel in the same way that glass is. Where can I buy some graphene wire?
