Knowing exactly what a material is made of usually means damaging or specially preparing a sample first — grinding it, coating it, sometimes destroying it. MMoMA is DARPA's push to get that same depth of answer without any of that.

The technical ask is precise: surface and bulk analysis of molecular structure, elemental composition, and trace elements and isotope ratios, all done under ambient co…
