Israeli scientists yesterday said they had created the world's smallest
Hebrew Bible, fitting the book on to a gold-coated silicon chip smaller
than a pinhead.
The scientists were able to pack the 308,428 words onto a surface
smaller than a pinhead
Scientists at Technion, Israel's Institute of Technology, were able to
pack the 308,428 words of what Christians refer to as the Old Testament
on to a 0.5mm square of silicon by etching its surface with particle
beams.
"The Guinness Book of World Records has a Bible 50 times bigger," said
Ohad Zohar, who directed the project. He said he now wanted to take
pictures of the nano-Bible and blow it up to a seven-by-seven metre
poster, which will make it "possible to read the entire bible with the
naked eye".
The tiny Bible was developed as part of an educational drive to
increase interest in nanoscience among teenagers.

Yes ,this last nanobible is amazing but it is not a breakthrought. I saw the first nanobible 2 years ago on this site www.crystal-bible.com. The major interrest is the possibility to wear close to your heart this edition and the possibility to read it with a personal pen microscope! Check this site out!
