It might look like a poorly drawn picture of an alien, but this is actually one of the most advanced types of skin ever made - that can even stop bullets.

Researchers genetically engineered goats to produce milk which is packed with the same protein as silk spiders.

Once this is milked out it can be spun out and weaved into a material that is ten times stronger than steel.

The fabric can then be blended with human skin to make what the scientists hope will be tough enough to stop even a bullet.

I'm waiting for a combination of spider silk and meta-material based visible wavelength tactical invisibility material so I can be both invisible and bullet resistant. Put me on the waiting list! To read the rest of the article, click here.

P.S. While they're at it, they're going to have to make infrared and ultraviolet wavelengths invisible, too.
