Star Trek spaceship miniature measuring only 0.015mm

A research team at Leiden University in the Netherlands made a 3D printer of a small spaceship measuring only 0.015mm, which is modeled after the USS Voyager, a virtual spacecraft appearing in the science fiction drama Star Trek Voyager. The research team conducted an experiment to create a miniature model with a 3D printer in order to study microparticles that move through a liquid by a chemical reaction.

The miniature model used in the study is the USS Voyager from Star Trek, well known as a science fiction drama masterpiece. The research team made a USS Voyager with a length of 0.015mm, or 15 micrometers, into a 3D printer. The USS Voyager, which appeared in Star Trek, is a spaceship that sails through space with impulse drive and walk drive. The aqueous solution can be navigated by a chemical reaction generated by the platinum coating and the hydrogen peroxide solution injected inside.

In addition to the USS Voyager, the research team is also making small models shaped like boats. Using these miniature models of various shapes, the research team is analyzing the effect of shapes on particle flow. The research team revealed that it can be helpful in understanding how microscopic organisms such as sperm and bacteria and microscopic substances such as chemical substances in the body move through the body, diagnosis of treatment, and drug delivery. It can be helpful in the development of microrobots that autonomously swim and deliver drugs to desired locations in the body. Related information can be found here .

Through the monthly AHC PC and HowPC magazine era, he has watched 'technology age' in online IT media such as ZDNet, electronic newspaper Internet manager, editor of Consumer Journal Ivers, TechHolic publisher, and editor of Venture Square. I am curious about this market that is still full of vitality.
