Full disclosure, I didn’t read the article on the superconductors. I assumed it was another one of those “Oh, neat” scientific discoveries that wasn’t as exciting as journalists want it to be. I’d love to see it when it’s real, though.
If confirmed, it would be much more than an “oh, neat” kind of discovery. Unlike many things which are very much a scientific pursuit – still worth researching, but having few, if any, applications outside of the pursuit of knowledge – a room temperature, ambient pressure superconductor has immense practical benefits. A true room temperature, ambient pressure superconductor would stand to revolutionize many things, and whoever discovers it will almost definitely get a well-deserved Nobel prize for their effort.
