Bertrand Piccard’s Big Hydrogen Adventure

Cars That Think

Now hes in the midst of what looks like his most technologically ambitious mission yet: to fly around the planet in a green-hydrogen fuel-cell aircraft. It enabled him and a colleague to be the first people hoisted into the stratosphere, by a hydrogen balloon, in 1931. And the big part of the propulsion system is the hydrogen tank.

The Tiny Star Explosions Powering Moore’s Law

Cars That Think

To produce EUV light, we would focus an intense laser pulse onto 30-micrometer-wide droplets of tin flying through a chamber filled with low-density hydrogen. As a by-product, the plasma balls generated shock waves that traveled through the surrounding hydrogen. Interstellar material consists mostly of hydrogen.)

Study confirms €1T green hydrogen potential for Africa

Green Car Congress

Africa can produce 50 million tons of green hydrogen a year by 2035, according to a new study by the European Investment Bank (EIB), International Solar Alliance and the African Union, with the support of the Government of Mauritania, HyDeal and UCLG Africa. This is equivalent to energy costs of US$60 a barrel.

Stanford researchers make ammonia from air and water microdroplets

Green Car Congress

Stanford researchers, with a colleague from King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, have developed a simple and environmentally sound way to make ammonia with tiny droplets of water and nitrogen from the air. Water microdroplets are the hydrogen source for N 2 in contact with Fe 3 O 4. —Song et al. Song et al.
