  2. Forschende der #UniversityofRochester haben ein solares Verfahren entwickelt, das #Meerwasser entsalzt und zugleich #Lithium für #EAuto-Akkus gewinnt.

    Laserstrukturierte Metallpaneele verdunsten Wasser effizient, während Salze in fester Form zurückbleiben. So entstehen #Trinkwasser und verwertbare Rohstoffe ohne belastende Sole.

    In Tests konnte rund die Hälfte des enthaltenen Lithiums isoliert werden. Die Technologie ist skalierbar, aber noch im Laborstadium.

  8. Breakthrough Metal Tubes Promise Unsinkable Structures and Wave Energy Capture

    Scientists made metal tubes that float even when broken. This could make ships safer and help capture energy from ocean waves.

  11. [en] How political conspiracy theories start and spread, and why people believe them

    Some systematic background to #conspiracy theories or "#conspiracisms" (Prof. Tyson).

    "I think now we’re just well past the point of no return," says Tyson, who teaches an undergraduate class on conspiracy theories ...

    "Conspiracy theories thrive especially in environments where #uncertainty, ſfear, or #distrust are rampant ..."

  12. [en] Superconductivity Scandal: Stunning Science Fraud Report by Nature News Team

    Once "up-and-coming star of the physics world" claiming "to have discovered the first room-temperature superconductor", researcher Dias "is now infamous for the scandal that surrounds his work."

  13. I live in #WesternNY so I followed this case.

    It's a great piece of #investigative #reporting by #Nature's news team. which they are careful to note is independent editorially from the science journal.

    TLDR:

    Dude fabricates #superconductivity research, destroys his career,
    poisons his students' careers,
    sullies #UniversityOfRochester's reputation,
    and brings into question the credibility of Nature's review process.

    What a FUBAR.
