Good time lay ahead if they manage to put this material into mass production
Carbon has an unmatched capacity to form the basis of complex molecules, binding both to itself and other elements. That's why we (and every other life form we know) are built out of molecules with carbon scaffolds, even if we contain more oxygen and hydrogen atoms. Even pure carbon can arrange itself in very different ways – represented in nature by graphite, soot, and diamonds.
