Less than a millimetre long, the miniscule robots can move themselves without any external source of power.Not sure how they have suspended the second law of thermodynamics. But maybe rats are special.

I don't have a problem attaching rat muscles to a machine. There's no sanctity of life issues there.
However, the promise of nanotechnology is often centered on medical applications. The idea of rat muscles crawling around inside my body to remove a cancer tumour is not very appealing. On the other hand, if I had cancer, and there was little alternative, bring on those rat muscles!!!

This is to nanotechnology what the first chain reaction was to nuclear engineering.

I thought that for muscles to work they had to have a blood supply for oxygen and nutrients. How did they solve that?
