Nano means billionth. In this context, it relates to the distance unit of billionth of a meter, as in nanometer.
What kind of objects do you know, whose sizes are comparable to 1 billionth of a meter (1 nanometer)? Answer: individual atoms and molecules.
Nanotechnology is the concept of shrinking our technologically sophisticated devices of today, down to the size scale of individual molecules. Usually, it involves structures of carbon bonding, forming molecular structures that can resemble familiar machines.
