    Scientists have developed a revolutionary new use for wood by creating a method to make it transparent. This see-through wood could replace glass in windows, tables, iPhone screens, and other building materials. Researchers at the University of Maryland experimented with different ways to extract the chemicals that give wood color and were surprised by how transparent it became. This innovation opens applications that could potentially replace glass and some optical materials.
