SUPERCONDUCTOR BREAKTHROUGH THAT COULD CHANGE THE WORLD








                                                          Super:  William and Mary & Stock

  • Physicists from the College of William and Mary and South Korea's Quantum Energy Research Center have discovered what appears to be the Holy Grail of superconductors
  • It doesn't experience electrical resistance and can operate at room temperature and ambient air pressure
  • Called LK-99, it does not require extreme cold and extreme high pressure to work like current systems do
  • Experts say if this is true, the new superconductor will change the world
  • It will unlock new, highly advanced technologies, at much lower costs, in 
  1. Computers
  2. Wireless communications
  3. Transportation
  4. Healthcare
  5. Energy
  6. Fusion reactors and more
  • This new discovery has been published, but not peer reviewed as of yet by top physicists
  • There is some skepticism in scientific circles because of similar claims in the past that proved untrue
  • The new superconductor is composed of lead, oxygen, sulfur and phosphorus and according to the research team allows electricity to pass through virtually unimpeded
  • If the superconductor proves to work when vetted by experts, it could be the biggest physics discovery of our times and likely merit a Nobel Prize.

  • Honda is about to unveil a stunning electric sportscar, a blast from the past, brand-new version of the S2000, which is a surprise gift to mark its 75th anniversary in business
  • Experts expect it to get the R moniker for racing, which means it's going to have power and speed
  • Here are the expectations so far:
  1. 1 electric motor to keep the weight and price down
  2. Stunning, sleek design
  3. AWD AND RWD options
  4. Lightweight
  5. Powerful and speed
  6. Built on Honda's new e:n electric platform
  7. Highly competitive with other new electric sports cars coming out from Corvette and others
  • Honda has not released any tech details or even the debut date but this new car is expected to be a big wow.
