Experiments on colloids have proved that self-replication is possible, they say. By tagging colloid particles with a range of DNA coatings that fluoresce at different wavelengths, they were able to see how a mixture gradually turned into a collection of ordered lines of particles after a self-replicating "seed" structure was added."

This ir really a potential breakthrough! slowly science fiction looses its fiction part

But can we stop them from replicating. We could be taken over be microscopic relief maps. It sounds like these "materials" are already using mind control.

Amazing stuff.
