Oh man, I hope this one is real. These are the real fun ones. I didn’t let myself get my hopes up with the superconductor, for obvious reasons, but this ones harder. MIT generally doesn’t fuck around.
A little weird why this only got published in PNAS and not something like Science, but hopefully the results is legit. What happened with that superconductor, btw? Did not replicate?
Nope. LK 99 (if I remember right…) has some interesting properties, but is not a room temp superconductor.
Oh well, maybe LK 100 will show more promise
Neat. I am surprised it took this long for someone to test this.
Maybe the technology wasn’t available?
Well even if it doesn’t bring about the 2nd age of steam for mankind, it should at least be inspiration for a new RP genre - the merging of lasers + evaporation = Cyber + Steampunk?
Laserpunk?
