When it comes to innovative materials, i’m a total sucker for them. Aerogel is a ridiculously amazzzing material that weighs next to nothing and feels like your holding a frozen piece of smoke in your hand. This is the same stuff NASA uses to catch comet trails in space! This material is 99.9% air, reflects all heat, is super cool looking and has some great future application ahead of it.aerogel
