Super Tensile Solids

"Optical computers, genetic catalogs, nanorepair modules--forget all of that. It's when you see a megaton of steel suspended over your head by a thread the thickness of a human hair that you really find God in technology."

Super Tensile Solids is a Build technology in Alpha Centauri.

Background
The requirements of Advanced Spaceflight (E8) and the possibilities inherent in Matter Compression (C9) lead to research in Super Tensile Solids. These materials possess such strength as to be functionally unbreakable in a natural environment.
