Biomimicry is when we look to God’s creation for problem-solving ideas. For example, dealing with “space junk” is a big problem. As you can imagine, grabbing things in space is hard. Most glues won’t stick, and suction doesn’t work in a vacuum.
So scientists designed robot grippers inspired by gecko feet. These tiny lizards can run up walls and across ceilings because of tiny hairs that create molecular forces. Engineers are copying this design for their grippers.
Engineers copy God’s designs because they are the best designs. And that’s exactly what we’d expect starting with the truth that “in the beginning God.”
