Buckyball bomb, conceptual computer artwork. This image of a bomb inside a buckyball could represent the use of nanotechnology in warfare. A buckyball, or buckminsterfullerene, is a structurally distinct form (allotrope) of carbon. It has 60 carbon atoms arranged in a spherical structure consisting of interlinking hexagonal and pentagonal rings.
