The 2014 Corvette Stingray has been unveiled and contains generous portions of engineered nano particles.

Carbon Fiber: The Secret of the 2014 Corvette

Health and Safety: Fibers

The Boeing 787 Dreamliner has just recently been grounded worldwide. Originally it relied heavily on carbon fiber (23,000 tons of it) in order to be lighter, similar to the 2014 Corvette.

Carbon Fiber Making Inroads In New Applications Despite Safety Concerns

Carbon fiber is different from metal; it does not visibly show cracks and fatigue.


A few years ago, a former senior aerospace engineer at Boeing’s Phantom Works research unit, Vince Weldon, went public with concerns that the 787 Dreamliner was unsafe. He claimed that “in a crash landing that would be survivable in a metal airplane, the new jet’s innovative composite plastic materials will shatter too easily and burn with toxic fumes.”


“The brittleness of the plastic material from which the 787 fuselage is built would create a more severe impact shock to passengers than an aluminum plane, which absorbs impact in a crash by crumpling. A crash also could shatter the plastic fuselage, creating a hole that would allow smoke and toxic fumes to fill the passenger cabin.


After such a crash landing, the composite plastic material burning in a jet-fuel fire would create ‘highly toxic smoke and tiny inhalable carbon slivers’ that ‘would likely seriously incapacitate or kill passengers.’”


Boeing 787 Dreamliner is Grounded Worldwide by Regulators/Jan. 17, 2013

Carbon fiber and other nano materials are being used wholesale in just about everything without tests for safety. I've presented 3 items here: the new Corvette (although some nano has been used since 2005), the Boeing Dreamliner and bycicles. This is just a small sampling of the products we all offer ourselves as guinea pigs for. And pay for the privilege. Carbon fiber is electrically conductive and tends to be brittle.

The old Corvette (pre-nano)...keep recycling...feel the love and the seduction:
