How big is one billion and how small is one billionth? Let the Nano quest begin!

When Ebony and Jasmine hear that nanotechnology will make electronics, like cell phones, smaller and smaller, they investigate and learn that a nanometer is one billionth of a meter. The girls set off on a quest to find a billion of something they can see and evidence of something as small as a nanometer to understand what makes something so small so promising.
