With Advancements in Nanotechnology we are able to put molecules one
after another and create things like Bricks.

In next 10 years It would be possible to design things molecule be
molecule on a 3D Printer and get things just like today we get 2D
prints of real world things.

Say we want a Watch.

Just put all molecules in such a way that resembeles a clock.

But my Question is when after 10 years we get the etechnology to
create things Molecules by Molecules.

And we get all details of all molecules in a living ant. Can we
recreate 100s of Living anys on a 3d printer that just puts all
molecules just exactly where the Leving ant has.

What will be the result. Will we get a dead ant or a Living ant when
we just place all molecules at correct plces.

According to physics the Organs/ Cells and other things will work the
same. And also the chemical processes in an Ant will be based on
Molecules. Since Living things only use Chemical Reaction for Body
works I think that ant created on a 3d Printer will come alive.

Hey stooopid -

1) A cheap solid brick typically weighs 4.6 lbs, a cored brick 3.6
lbs. A dense red clay brick 4"x8"x2.25" thick weighs just under 6
lbs.
2) How many atoms are in a brick?
3) Given 1000 atoms placed/second and the universe aged 13.7
billion years, how many universes are you willing to wait?

It will probably turn out to be like embryology, nanoembryology, where
some small groups of molecules directs the assembly of larger groups
of molecules, which normally role along in groups, like in a stream,
bonding and interacting.

You can read the entire book free, forgot to mention, and I have not
seen any book cover the future sociology of nano-technology better.
Found it in late 86 myslf in a college library and read it over and

before dat.

That's nano. Now you nano, know. No?

1000 atoms placed/second (Its too slow.)

Do you know current Printers Print 1200 dpi Which means every inch it
prints 1200 dots.

So for Every Square inch of Paper Todays Printer Prints. 1200x1200 =
1440000 dots per square inch.

If we take A4 page A4 (8.27" x 11.69")

The area of A4 page is 96 sq inches.

So Tatal number of dots made in one page of A4 size is 138240000 dots.

And todays printers can print 138240000 dots in just 1 second.
