Only ten more years, and we'll have it!

...you said 10 more years 50 years ago

[–] very_well_lost@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

In just 10 more years, it'll only be 40 more years!

I feel like the awesome back to future reference was missed completely.

We're using graphene! Almost entirely for it's electrical properties true, but we're using graphene doped batteries in consumer electronics currently. We also use fusion and ITER research for a whole lot more than just power generation - plasma dynamics, just one tiny subfield concerned with physics, has applications in everything from radio transmission beam forming techniques to satellite engines to magnetodynamic modeling to the EMI shielding on your vacuum cleaner.

I would like to subscribe for more graphene facts.
