3D stocks u know have ran, tho just called a major short on VJET (and DDD SSYS) recently from 69, running to $1bil cap on 15mil 2014 full revs, just way too far & took a $36 two day hit the other week. People got all excited over these plastic daubing 3D Cubes made by DDD that work 1/2 the time & people end up using them as $2k doorstops. They all got pretty good bounces too esp VJET.

But General Electric in house vid here shows the real deal in 3D printing, laser fusion single component creation, they just grow the shape up sintering together complex alloys from a metal powder . Skip to 1:40 , this is for $6bil jet fuel nozzel market orders they have, this is the real deal , huge innovation , really remarkable stuff http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CsXuOzXSBLc

Now we can start to make those star drives soon and GE still rules the world, they do have some high tech stuff in their back pockets, staying ontop of the game.

Think there's $36Bil orders total for GE's new Leap engine, but taking the machining & multiple component brazing steps out of the equation, able to design & laser together one complete unit is something they're willing to spend $3Bil on just for the process. And structurally these compnents are stronger & last longer, while the whole process allows for an entirely new palete in component design capabilities. This woud be called magic even in Henry Fords day last century, its getting nuts how advanced some of this stuff is.

Some more cool stuff an Indian physicist (and hes an atheist!! lol) posted on his page the other day, a 100% super conductor made of tin atoms with flourine

A single layer of tin atoms could be the world’s first material to conduct electricity with 100 percent efficiency at the temperatures that computer chips operate.

Paying respects to Giordano Bruno, one of the great Renaissance thinkers

" It looks as if destiny has its own time scale. The overthrow of man from the central role of the keeper of the universe was not an easy acceptance by saviors of mankind. Copernicus and Galileo... were not entirely correct, that it was the Sun instead at the centre of the Universe and the stars being some bright heavenly bodies of an unknown nature. It was only 'partial truth.' The truth remained concealed by the fate from the curious minds of philosophers in the multilayered shrouds of ambiguity. It was as if waiting for the genius of Bruno. Giordano Bruno is known as 'The Forgotten Philosopher' who predicted ' Infinite Galaxies, Infinite Life.'

He claimed that the sun was only one star among the many thousands, and therefore, like the sun, many other stars also have planets around them and living beings inhabiting them." By the time Bruno was burned at the stake as a heretic in 1600 on Rome's Campo dei Fiori for his provocative ideas about the infinity of the universe the Inquisition, condemned him to death in Rome as part of a yearlong jubilee. Giordano Bruno is one of the enormous figures of renaissance Europe. He is an intellectual peer of the greatest thinkers, a thinker whose dream of the world foreshadowed ours. "
