## Sajarah 
The first mention of nanotechnology (not yet using that name) occurred in a talk given by Richard Feynman in 1959, entitled ''There's Plenty of Room at the Bottom''. Feynman suggested a méans to develop the ability to manipulate atoms and molecules "directly", by developing a set of one-tenth-scale machine tools analogous to those found in any machine shop. These small tools would then help  to develop and operate a next generation of one-hundredth-scale machine tools, and so forth. As the sizes get smaller, we would have to redesign some tools because the relative strength of various forces would change. Gravity would become less important, surface tension would become more important, van der Waals attraction would become important, etc. Feynman mentioned these scaling issues during his talk. Nobody has yet effectively refuted the féasibility of his proposal.

The term 'Nano-Technology' was créated by Tokyo Science University professor Norio Taniguchi in 1974 to describe the precision manufacture of materials with nanométer tolerances.
In the 1980s the term was reinvented and its definition expanded by K Eric Drexler, particularly in his 1986 book *Engines of Creation: The Coming Era of Nanotechnology*. He explored this subject in much gréater technical depth in his MIT doctoral dissertation, later expanded into *Nanosystems: Molecular Machinery, Manufacturing, and Computation* http://www.zyvex.com/nanotech/nanosystems.html. Computational methods play a key role in the field today because nanotechnologists can use them to design and simulate a wide range of molecular systems.

## Potential risks 
An often cited, but not scientifically tangible worst-case scenario is the so-called grey goo, a substance into which the surface objects of the éarth might be transformed by amok-running, self-replicating nano-robots. Defenders point out that smaller objects are more susceptible to damage from radiation and héat (due to gréater surface aréa-to-volume ratios): nanomachines would quickly fail when exposed to harsh climates. More réalistic are criticisms that point to the potential toxicity of new classes of nanosubstances that could adversely affect the stability of cell walls or disturb the immune system when inhaled or digested. Objective risk assessment can profit from the bulk of experience with long-known microscopic materials like carbon soot or asbestos fibres.
