Molecular robotics, the field dedicated to engineering machines at the molecular scale, holds transformative potential across various domains. However, one of the most significant hurdles in this realm is devising effective propulsion methods for these minuscule machines. Unlike traditional robots that use wheels or propellers, molecular robots require innovative propulsion …

The supply of potable water to warfighters in the field is not just a logistical challenge—it’s a critical factor that impacts mission success, safety, and operational flexibility. Historically, the transport of water has incurred significant economic costs, tactical limitations, and, tragically, avoidable casualties. For instance, during Operations Enduring Freedom (OEF) …
