Giant fullerene molecule would be revolutionizing tool for lightweight submarines and spacecraft.
What if we could someday create the giant fullerene ball, what would have a layer, what thickness is only one atom? If this kind of fullerene molecule is someday able to create it would actually make possible to create the dive balls or spacecraft, what is consisting only one molecule. The problem is that how we could install the hatch on that ball because we don't have any experience about super thick materials, what are produced in this size.
But maybe someday it would be possible by using the method, what I will explain later. A fullerene ball is a magnificent tool and the thing, what makes it so special is that there are no limits for the length of the carbon atom chain.
Normal fullerene molecule is consisting of about 60-70 carbon atoms, which are forming the ball-shaped molecule. On the internet are paragraphs of C-500 molecules, and maybe even bigger molecules have been made. But because there are no limits for the length of the carbon chain, there is a possibility to create extremely large carbon ball, and in theory, the size of the fullerene molecule could be even meters or kilometers.
If we would create the fullerene-ball, what diameter is about two or three meters, it would revolutionize the science and machine building. The problem in this scenario is that the number of carbon atoms might be the trillions, but maybe someday in the future, we might be able to create the carbon balls by using the ion technology.
In this scenario, the ion cannon would shoot the carbon ion and the magnetic field would stop it in a certain place. In fact, we could cover any form in the world by using ionized carbon. The structure what wanted to be covered would load with the opposite polarity of electricity than the carbon ions, and they would cover the entire layer very easily.
But the thing is that we would want to make the hollow fullerene ball. That ball would be empty, and it would be one of the most revolutionary things, what history has ever seen. This structure wall would be only the layer of single atoms. If we would have the ball, what has the layer, what is so thick, that there is only one atom in that layer, we would create something awesome.
In fact, we don't have the experience to make that kind of graphene or fullerene balls. But if we would create this atom-thick layer, we would have extremely lightweight and at the same time hard material. There would be huge problems to benefit those structures because installing the hatches in that extreme think structure would be difficult. But if that thing would work, that atom-thick ball will revolutionize technology.
