“Grey Goo” Will Keep Being Just An Idea For A Foreseeable Future But Siemens Is Making First Steps In Making It Real

Grey Goo is, along with cornucopia machines (molecular assemblers), one of the most popular subjects of sci-fi books dealing with scientific singularity scenarios. Grey Goo is made out of microscopic nano machines able to transform regular matter into a smart one, with the only goal of reproducing itself, making every molecule a part of the grey goo. Aside from its clearly doomsday-scenario use, nano machines could be used for building objects in deep space, preparing, for instance the surface of Mars, for a human expedition. Although we are decades (or even centuries) away from being able to produce nano machines
