Carbon Nanotube Thread Developed

As strong as carbon fiber but able to conduct electricity:

Still...it's not nearly as strong as carbon nanotube thread should be because it's made of trillions of short bundles of nanotubes assembled like cotton thread, rather than made of massively long single fibers...I think.
