huge sheets of carbon nanotubes manufactured

3 ft by 6 ft carbon nanotube sheets to be approximate. Single-walled carbon nanotubes are amazingly strong materials but also incredibly light, and with their properties could soon make solar power, solar cells and a whole host of other applications much more possible.

I remember the days when we'd be lucky to manufacture them by the micron using two knitting needles and a small aubergine...
