So what's the point of reproducing some parts of of life with man-made stuff, as in Self-Replicating Spheres?
As with other Self-Assembly Lab projects, including the chair that builds itself we debuted earlier this year, Self-Replicating Spheres is built on customized magnets.

When people think of self-replicating objects, images of fist-sized robot cubes or sci-fi swarms of nanobots usually spring to mind, but MIT's Self-Assembly Lab is pushing its boundaries with an experiment called Self-Replicating Spheres which eschews mechanical parts entirely. .

Now, the Self-Assembly Lab is working on scaling Self-Replicating Spheres into the hundreds, or even thousands, to see if their magnetic orbs will turn into more complex beings, or just reproduce like rabbits once they've got enough food.
These same trends were replicated in other spheres of commerce such as insurance and wholesale trade in imported goods.
At the same time, nanoporous polymer structures, which were reversely replicated to silica spheres, were obtained.
For Prince Henry, he made models of an astrolabe and a pantograph, and created or arranged to be created out of wood a form of armillary sphere which replicated the motions of the celestial sphere, the circular motions of the sun and moon, and the places and possibilities of them eclipsing each other.
As a result, the story of the healthcare reforms is replicated in numerous other spheres.
The announcement was made together with an American company, 454 Life Sciences, which had developed a so-called "high throughput" sequencing machine that, with the help of tiny resin spheres, could replicate tens of thousands of DNA snippets at a time.
