Spider silk, particularly the dragline silk used to anchor webs, is stronger than steel and more elastic than Kevlar, meaning it can absorb a significant amount of energy without breaking. This makes it a remarkable natural material with potential applications in various fields, from clothing and textiles to medical devices.
