GE and Wattpad have teamed up once again to bring real science and technology to life through the power of Science Fiction!

This month, GE Scientist Anja Nieratschker and Wattpad Sci-Fientist Sarah Perlmutter have teamed up to create "Compositional Defiance" - an exciting story about how composite manufacturing can completely revolutionize the future of some of our biggest industries operate. 

Now is your chance to put your imagination to work!

In the comments below, tell us how you would use super strong materials to improve your every day life, or the lives of those around you.

Consider these technological triumphs and everyday applications as inspiration for your comments:

- Composites can do just about anything you want them to – you can create the strength and lightness you need based on the way the different parts are put together and the different processes used. What everyday products do you think could benefit from super-strength with flexible lightness?

- GE is using composite manufacturing to improve parts used in everything from plane parts to wind power to rocket ships. What do you think is the next frontier to apply this tech?

- Like with 3D printing, composites can even be used to create items you use every single day like clothing and textiles. Anja even built a skate board out of composites! Whether it's feather-light boots to wear all night at the club, or the next way to make ice skates for a world competition... what cool ways do you think you could use composites?

Feel free to get creative with your composites – your imagination is the limit!

Sarah and Anja will be shouting their favorite comments from the GE Profile all week long!
