Scientists have developed a transparent heat-resistant gelthat can be used to build green-house like habitats for humans on Mars. It iscalled the ”aerogel”, and it looks like flattened plastic contact lenses. Itcan also be used on Earth and save energy and cut down and expenditure. Thisgel is also cheaper to produce because it comes from beer waste. This gel isroughly 100 times lighter than glass. "However, we also see our technologybeing enabling for so many other applications, including smart clothes, forinsulating cars and protecting firefighters," the researchers said.
