Titanium is element 22, prized for the best strength-to-weight ratio of any metal — as strong as steel but far lighter — plus it resists corrosion and is so biocompatible that surgeons build bone implants from it. Diamond is pure carbon crushed under enormous pressure into the hardest natural material known, a perfect 10 on the Mohs scale. The super-metal of jets and surgeons versus the unbreakable gemstone.
