Yes, transparent aluminum.

I think we know who we have to thank for this:

Took em longer the 10 years tho.

Scotty totally called that years ago.

So when do we get transparisteel and duracrete?

That might take a few more years.

Now we can build all the humpbacked-whale transportation facilities we've always dreamed of, but never had the transparent aluminum for!

Thanks, James Doohan.

KIRK: Humpbacks, Mr. Scott.
SCOTTY: Er--humpacked-people... Sir?
KIRK: Whales, Mr. Scott, whales

Wow, that's pretty amazing, considering the exact same properties that make metal metallic are the ones that make it opaque. Seriously, I'm weirded out. I wonder if it also can't conduct electricity any more.

Well it really doesn't need to in the capicity they intend it to be used for.

I think Scotty can be accredited in some way for just about every scientific advance that mankind has made in the last 20 years.

Including, but not limited to, color tinted popcorn.

Teen grrl squaaad!
