New Super Material Created, Mirabilis miniseries recruits, Amazon to start streaming and Robtos play football!

Sci Fi Pool Highlights for 19th July Include:
  • Pencil Shavings are new Super Material - Graphene is the new super strength material which is only an atom thick ... they have as yet not found suitable applications for it as "Scaling up" is an issue at the moment, but they are quoting "Science Fiction Applications" in the article ... not sure what that would entail?
  • Mirabilis new mini series - The Sci Fi Channel has been staffing up on their new fantasy mini-series about protective knights ... lets hope it is better than the appalling adaptation of Discworld
  • Amazon begins Streaming Video on Demand - planned to replace Unboxed, their video rental by post system, this is going through trials now
  • Robots play football - but will they get paid Footballer's wages?
