moominmolly posted about Aerogel, which looks really, really fake. Pictures are here.

I want to play with that stuff, at least partly because of just how vague its outlines are!

It's good to see that space exploration is still generating nifty things that eventually make their way to everyday uses. This stuff looks to be very strange, as though it were photoshoped because of the light edges.

On the otherhand, it's use as a building material/insulation would be much appreciated in reducing our New England heating bills in the winter, though I don't know what the cost of the stuff is.
