Science Fun Facts by Dr. Bug
Did you know that if a spider web was the size of a large fishing net, it could stop a jet plane, full-throttle in mid-air, no problem? Spider silk (protein) is the strongest known natural (biologically produced) substance.

What’s the strongest inorganic (for example: rocks, minerals and dirt) substance on earth? Think about it! Post your answer on our Blog.
