Paper bridge

Have your ever heard of a paper bridge? Everyone connects Paper with thin paper. In fact it is a very strong elastic material. To prove it paper makers built a paper bridge across a remote Nevada river and they drove a 12,000 lbs truck across.

The bridge covered a span of 32 feet and was made only of paper and glue. It weighed 9,000 lbs. Engineers calculated that the bridge could take six times the load of 12,000 lbs. The truck could safely drive two and half times further. The ten-foot-wide, four-foot-deep structure was light enough to be laid into place by a helicopter.

FASTER THAN LIGHT

The theoretical forecast made by the physicists on thd transparency of particles and their capability to pass through each other has been confirmed on the accelerator of atomic particles in Serpukhov, a town near Moscow. The accelerator made it possible to study the nature of the interrelated nuclear forces between two protons. It appears that they cause the particles to repulse one another, i.e., to act like an electric field. The physicists consider that the Serpukhov accelerator will help them to solve many problems.
