What does Tensegrity mean?

The term was coined in the 1960s by architect/inventor Buckminster Fuller as a portmanteau of Tensional Integrity. Tensional Integrity is a physics principle whereby objects push and pull against each other thus creating opposing forces which causes an object to be held in place. 

You can find applications of this cool principle in structures around you like bridges, towers, and even on a NASA robot!
