This is something we can do to some degree today with non-newtonian liquids and similar materials, and is being considered for use with bulletproof vests; it'll be well within our abilities for nanostructured materials (consisting, perhaps, of mostly motors) within a few decades. I don't think midchilda would have any problem.

Did was discussed a little, but then in terms of waters. But that was quickly overshadowed other aspect..... :/
