“These intruders that we are dealing with may actually be migrating from somewhere. It makes sense that they are not locals. Possibly even somewhere far away. I could not find anything on Vular or Titu forest. With the exception to a fictitious reference to an old myth, there was not a whim. Perhaps places in a video game or book might have a reference to the myth?”_Spidersilk the novel

Spider silk, which plays a major role in Spidersilk the novel, is changing things up for us! In the past couple of years, we have seen this material transform from a complex manufacturing problem to a material that is about to be found in many things we use daily. One of the most recent developments is the materials ability to mend bones without as many complications as the items we currently use. This amazing development could lead to a more pleasant and faster healing period, which could change the health industry for the better.

“John quickly tapped his tablet a few times after a few moments he announced, “I have located a signal.” The officer’s jaw dropped, “How did you do that? We have been scanning for hours.” John casually explained, “Some tablets have an anti-theft device. When the tablet is turned off they give off a really weak short range signal on a specific frequency. The signals are powered by an internal battery and are intended to last a very long time. The purpose is for times like this, so the tablet can be located.”_Spidersilk the novel

Spidersilk the novel uses the multiverse to help weave an exciting story that keeps readers engaged and curious about the universe. In our own world, the multiverse is a hot topic within the science community. Although there is no solid evidence, many speculate that we are, in fact, living in a multiverse. More recently, Stephen Hawking published a paper, just ten days prior to his death, that discussed his thoughts on the multiverse in more detail. Time will tell where scientists choose to go with his paper, but for now we can all enjoy learning more about his amazing mind and a theory that could help bring us a few answers if pursued.

As we learned from Spidersilk the novel, spider silk can save lives and offers remarkable amounts of protection. We’ve recently discovered that spider silk can be grown in many ways. Although may scientist have figured how to make synthetic spider silk, there are still some programs where spider silk is grown. In one case, where spider silk is grown on tobacco leaves, scientist believe they may have found a cure for Ebola. This discovery could save millions of lives.
