Talk:Nanocar

A fact from Nanocar appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 29 January 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the Nanodragster is a nanocar which is 50,000 times thinner than a human hair and has a top speed of 0.014 millimeters per hour?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2010/January.

Molecular propeller

It is unclear to me how a molecular propeller could influence motion of this alleged car in solution. Don't you mean a molecular motor of some kind? Are there references to this or are you making this up?

Chemical formula

From this picture it seems to me that the chemical formula is C₃₁₀H₃₆. Does the nanocar (or do the multiple different nanocars) have CAS registry numbers? Icek (talk) 04:40, 10 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Title of the article

Nanocar has become a term for all kind of molecules. See Nanocar Race. Maybe this article should be renamed to something different. Options are Rice nanocar, Nanodragster or Nanocar 1 as in the paper. ReyHahn (talk) 22:59, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
