Remember the giant whale-tank in the cargo hold of the stolen Klingon Bird of Prey in the Star Trek movie The Voyage Home?

Hmm, so maybe they can make an 8 foot 240g tank now weigh only 10 pounds with material as thin as paper? Well maybe not quite that, at least for under a few million dollars lol.

Still waiting on transparent aluminum....
