Reconnaissance aircraft from unique biodegradable material

NASA scientists have successfully built a unmanned mini-spy plane from biological materials and more specifically, the aircraft is capable of self-destructing in the event of an enemy attack. present.

Reconnaissance work must always be secretive, so NASA scientists have created a unmanned spy plane from self-destructive biological material. unfortunately detected by the enemy.

A prototype of a mini-reconnaissance aircraft made from biodegradable material.

The biological material that scientists use is a mixture of mycelium, bacteria, and saliva. At first glance it seems crazy and unrealistic, but in fact, the main body of the spy plane is a bioplastic made up of a combination of fungal hyphae and artificial filaments. . Once completed, the main body is covered with a cellulose-based layer of bacteria in the laboratory.

With its tough, tough and tacky properties, this cellulose layer is considered as a layer that attaches the body to the shell. The outer shell of the aircraft is made up of artificial materials that simulate saliva, the substance that is the major constituent of the honeycomb layer, which provides waterproofing.

A sample of biological material used to make a mini-spy plane is self destructive.

The layers that make up this special reconnaissance aircraft are made separately, when it is discovered that the aircraft will destroy itself by collapsing, causing the crust to interact with each other and disintegrate into water. The layers after the interaction will occur biochemical reactions, self-decay and decomposition of the fuselage, but there are still some mechanical parts left.

In addition to the application of the spy device , this method of biodegradation is also expected to be used in the manufacture of environmentally friendly products, thereby reducing the consumption of non-self destructive materials, harmful to the environment such as plastic, plastic.
