incidentally, for anyone wondering about the current state of me playing vault hunters: I’ve been playing on a server with some friends for a few months and am level 89, have several absurdly expensive endgame items unlocked, and am going “I mean I technically don’t NEED a fission reactor, but I feel like there’s a point in every bee’s life where really, why not harness the unlimited power of nuclear energy?”
This video, went viral on many social media sites. It is claimed that in this new mineral, which somehow holds an electric charge.
Users demonstrate this by creating sparks, as well as connecting them with wires, which, as it turns out, power LED lights.
Supposedly it was discovered in the Democratic Republic of Congo, these stones have generated considerable interest, as such a stone is likely to change batteries and energy storage systems forever.
"We don't know of any mechanism that would support such a phenomenon," Yaoguo Li, a geophysics professor at the Colorado School of Mines, told the AP. 🤔
Scientists create DNA hydrogel-based, solar-powered evaporation system for highly efficient seawater desalination
Minerals as well as freshwater can be obtained by desalinating seawater with solar power facilities for the sustainable development of human civilization. For instance, hydrogels have shown great power for solar-powered water evaporation potential, although the highly efficient and specific target extraction method remains to be expanded.
In a recent report published in Science Advances, Hanxue Liang and a team of researchers at the college of chemistry, and materials science in China, describe the process of highly efficient seawater desalination and the specific extraction of uranium with smart DNA hydrogels.
The DNA hydrogels promoted the evaporation of water, and the uranyl-specific DNA hydrogel exhibited a high capture capacity of 5.7 mg per gram for uranium from natural seawater due to rapid ion transport driven by solar-powered interfacial evaporation and high selectivity. These developments could enable easy-to-use devices suited for future seawater treatment.
Time for the next piece! I combined the Dwarrowtober prompts Candle, Ancient and Mining (day 4-6)
Here's a dwarf working in ancient mines, traversing an almost horizontal path lit by candle light.
the real reason that wrathion and anduin could never forgive each other is that anduin is an emo purist who only listens to american football, car seat headrest, home is where and rites of spring, and wrathion is a myspace emo who only listens to metalcore and pop punk
