A living motor made by combining different parts from bacteria is one of the smallest ever built, and could one day power tiny robots.<\/p>\n

Many types of bacteria are propelled by natural motors that power the rotation of tail-like flagella. These rotary pumps, known as stators, are among the world\u2019s oldest and smallest wheels<\/a>, being thought to have evolved billions of years ago.<\/p>\n
