US Researchers developed the stickiest gecko-like glue… a 2.5cm² can support 100kg man climbing in vertical surface with the ability to be lifted and reapplied easily…
As Zhong Lin Wang of Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta said, “That is not real. What we do is real!” referring to Spider Man…
The glue can be used in keeping electronic components together instead of solidering them… And it can be used in low-tempratured areas like space or whatever…
This glue uses a carpet of carbon nanotubes, thin filaments of carbon molecules. But attached to the ends of these filaments are curly strands of carbon that expand the surface area of the glue’s gripping action.

i think it’ll be used more in space since most of glues over there lose their grip due to very low temperature…
