740.21 Miniaturization

740.21 It is obvious that each of the seemingly “solid” compression struts in tensegrity island complexes could be replaced by miniature tensegrity masts. There is nothing to keep us from doing this but technological techniques for operating at microlevels. It is simply that each of the struts gets smaller: as we look at each strut in the tensegrity mast, we see that we could make another much smaller miniature tensegrity mast to replace it. Every time we can see a separate strut and can devise means for making a tensegrity strut of that overall size, we can substitute it for the previously “solid” strut. By such a process of progressive substitutions in diminishing order of sizes, leading eventually via sub-sub-sub-miniaturizing tensegrities to discovery of the last remaining stage of the seemingly “solid” struts, we find that there is a minimum “solid-state” strut’s column diameter, which corresponds exactly with two diameters of the atoms of which it is constructed. And this is perfectly compatible, because discontinuity characterizes the structuring of the atoms. The atom is a tensegrity, and there are no “solids” left in the entire structural system. We thus discover that tensegrity structuring and its omnirationally constituted regularities are cosmically a priori, disclosing that Universe is not redundant. It is only humanity’s being born ignorant that has delayed all of humanity’s escape from the self-annihilating effect of the omniredundance now characterizing most of humanity’s activities.

Fig. 740.21 Tensegrity Masts as Struts: Miniaturization Approaches Atomic Structure: The tensegrity masts can be substituted for the individual (so-called solid) struts in the tensegrity spheres. In each one of the separate tensegrity masts, acting as struts, in the tensegrity spheres it can be seen that there are little (so-called) solid struts. A miniature tensegrity mast may be substituted for each of those solid struts. The subminiature tensegrity masts within the tensegrity struts of the tensegrity sphere and a subsubminiature tensegrity mast may be substituted for each of those solid struts, and so on to subsubsubminiature tensegrities until we finally get down to the size of the atom and this becomes completely compatible with the atom for the atom is tensegrity and there are no “solids” left in the entire structural system. There are no solids in structures, ergo no solids in Universe. There is nothing incompatible with what we may see as solid at the visual level and what we are finding out to be the structural relationships in nuclear physics.
