A new world is being born… A scientific revolution is underway…
This great revolution, we must look very deeply, it is that of the infinitely small, that of the advent of the nanoworld: that of nanosciences and nanotechnologies.
With the first episode we move from the micro world, that of the 20th century, to the nanoworld, that of the 21st century. We discover how, forgetting the traditional manufacturing of objects from blocks of raw material, the idea of assembling objects atom by atom was born.

It all started with a microscope that knew how to touch atoms... If we could touch them why not push them and put them together? And chance got involved with the first structures, the nanotubes... Structures with astonishing properties, because at this scale matter changes its behavior. As the first applications were born, the industrial and economic challenges were revealed, leading Europe, the USA and Asia in an impressive effort to master this 21st century techno-science.
We will let ourselves be guided by the first discoverers and the most cutting-edge researchers, several of whom are now “Nobel winners”. In their company, we will go to the ultimate logic of nanotechnologies which theoretically will allow us to assemble any object from atoms!
