The First Room-Temperature Ambient-Pressure Superconductor
arxiv.org
A room-temperature superconductor would be the single biggest discovery since the transistor, so take this with a grain of salt until we get some independent reproductions. But, if true, this is world-changing.
two words. peer. review.
Sounds exciting, but magical. Like that EM drive thing from like a decade ago. So exciting but ultimately nothing. Hopefully this turns out better.
holy shit,
and its literally just some lead mineral (lead Apatite)
Not only would it be a gigantic breakthrough,
it sounds almost affordable compared to rare earths (afaik Apatite can be lab grown)
i sure hope it turns out true after peer review
