MIT Robot Walks On Water
An anonymous reader writes "Researchers at MIT have solved the
mystery of how water striders propel themselves across water surfaces and in the
process have created a robot called Robostrider
that mimics the behavior. With cool stuff like this, it's no wonder
MIT is number one in engineering."
The only minor differences, of course, being that the MIT thing actually happened, and that no little boys had to be molested in the process.
