		<title>Hop, jump and stick; Robots designed with insect instincts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A swarm of flying robots soars into a blazing forest fire. With insect-like precision and agility, the machines land on tree trunks and bound over rough terrain before deploying crucial sensors and tools to track the inferno and its effects. This is a scenario one researcher thinks may not be so far off.
