Graphene.

A super-strong, super-thin carbon...?

Its tremendous strength could produce new composite materials that are super-strong and lightweight, for use in building airplanes, cars and satellites, the committee says.

Michael Strano, a chemist at MIT, said trying to predict its uses would be "folly ... We can't even imagine the uses we're going to find."

I don't want to engage in any folly, but now my current frame might last for another year or two...
