              Today, I asked myself what nanotechnology is. Is it the use of technology of microscopic proportions that will further society into the future? Or is it the study of minuscule organisms and the way humans will soon use them to further our race? It is all of those. Presently, nanotechnology is only in its start, but with every passing moment, the subject is evolving into something tangible and incredible. I never realized this, but nanotechnology has been in this world longer than most people alive today. Born in the mid 20th century, authors and scientists thought of infinitesimal robots that would assist the human race in everything. Ever since then, the subject was a growing subject that would soon be known across the world. This new science has affected many people especially scientists and artists. Nanotechnology allows a scientist to create new fields of study and creation. Nanotechnology has allowed scientists to think of new ways to cure diseases and explore the human body. For art, nanotechnology shows a new way of perceiving new things. Artists use nanotechnology to produce different forms of art, such as photographs of microscopic organisms and exhibits of new sciences to teach the public. Though many may say that science and art are totally different subjects and there is no way to connect the two subjects, the two are more alike than different. Science can be described as a new form of art and art can use different forms of science. They assist each other. All in all, nanotechnology has helped many think of new ways to cure disease and create easier ways to help humanity.
