The ongoing work on the Lightspeed project awarded to Dr Ferrus of Neptune City has led to many significant discoveries. One of the most heralded discoveries was the magical wonder material called Nantolite.
Synthesized from the high quantum fields emanated from the source particle and applied to an aluminum sheet. It had remarkable properties, 32 times tougher than diamond and lighter than plastic including unusual translucent and opaque qualities.
Nantolite was quickly adopted into the global marketplace and Krell Corp was poised to capture a significant portion of this market. They also had something up their sleeve.
A solution to the biggest problem facing planet earth, the imminent demise of the Sun.
