Cool news, I hope it's able to be reproduced!

I appreciate this approach to science writing. Gives context and conveys excitement about the science being done, without resorting to hyperbole about how this is guaranteed to change the world as we know it. And very well distilled for someone like me with no background in materials science!

Apparently the materials aren't extraordinarily rare and the process to create it isn't too mindboggling. It should be possible for other labs to produce and test.
