/sci/ - Science & Math

I'll try this...

1) Physics
2) Physics
3) Physics
4) Physics
5) Physics
6) Physics
7) Physics

Depends on how they do it, science in movies/tv series pisses me off because they always do it wrong ('Congratulations Mr Stark, you invented a new element'). I played half-life two and there wasn't really any 'science' element in it, you just played as a scientist.

I'm not familiar with that reference, so I'm not sure exactly what you're looking for, but I'll contextualize and extrapolate to assume you mean something that can build items at an atomic level.

If you'll allow me to make some gross oversimplifications, that's effectively what an AFM nanofabricator is. But it only works in one plane. (which sucks) Theoretically you could 3D print something in layers though, so if you had hundreds of thousands of dollars and years to spend on a single article, you could theoretically build any 3-D object at the atomic level with the technology we currently have available. But don't get too excited, atomic level construction is like cold-fusion. It's possible, but so horrendously expensive it's prohibitive.
