Nano Tubes and Water; Carbon nano tubes have unique properties with regards to water at various temperatures. Water in long nano tubes have behaviors which one could describe as a tornado inside a tube or a micro-Hurricane. Having such properties could be used for propulsion by if a nano tube coating was applied to a surface of lets say the bottom of an aircraft of some type or perhaps a boat or robotic AUV Autonomous Under Water Vehicle. Can we build Nanomites which are self-propelled in this way or smart dust which would have perpetual motion from the moisture in the air? Can we build flying invisible tubes made of sheets of carbon nano tubes? A literal flying carpet just like the ancient Arab tales and fables; indeed, maybe we can. Can we increase the performance of the of such flying or airborne items we innovate by sending in beams of sound with acoustic transducers, lasers, light waves, microwave or ultrasound? One think tank member writes:

“Water behaves differently when it's inside a long, narrow nanotube, when it is controlled by hydrophobic--water repulsing--materials. The tubes were made of nearly pure carbon and were 1 atom thick. Each was 1.4 nanometers across and 10,000 nanometers long. At 8K, or minus 445 F, 4 coordinated water molecules create an icy lining inside the hydrophobic carbon nanotube. The lining free-floats inside the tube with a 0.32 nanometer space all around it. That's as close as the water can get to the carbon. In liquid water, an average of 3.8 hydrogen bonds connect the molecule to its closest neighbors. In ice, 4 hydrogen bonds do this. In nanotube water, the number is only 1.86. The water is very active and always moving because of loose bonding. The icy lining is more stable, but the mobile chain makes and breaks bonds continuously betweeen parts of the chain and sometimes with the icy wall. The carbon nanotube sample was exposed to water vapor for several hours and exterior water was dried off. It was studied with neutron scattering techniques. A simulation was developed to show how the new form of water behaved. They will next look at water in nanotubes with smaller diameters close in size to membrane proteins that selectively transport water. They also will study the thermodynamic properties of nanotube water. They were very surprised it sounds like by the way water moved.”

Well, if all this is true then carbon nano tubes, moisture and a little powered frequency manipulation to the material and combination maybe the answer to propelling flying objects against the weak for of gravity. Of course such levitation will appear to be magic at first, but eventually the technology will be available to every aspect and industry sector of the human endeavor and indeed, solve the serious problems and future potential eventualities that mankind faces. Think on this.
