The just-released movie “The Hulk” features scientists “studying the effects of gamma radiation on nanomeds,” a.k.a. “nanobots,” according to the Official site.

Predictably, à la the novel Prey, the experiment gets out of control and a scientist is exposed to gamma radiation from Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory’s Gamma Sphere that activates a “dormant genetic mutation” and gives a whole new meaning to “Green Goo.” (The actual Gamma Sphere only detects, not emits gamma rays, as Nature Science Update explains.)

While the film is not exactly an educational experience, the official site does link to informative nanotech Web sites.
