Metallic Hydrogen! by irontrident00
Hydrogen has been successfully turned into a meta-material! A meta-material is something that acts stable under room pressures,temperatures etc. But the greater question is. How did they make it? Scientists at Harvard succesfully turned gaseous hydrogen into a metallic solid. The better part about it is. It behaves like a metal! And a super conducter! But the only way you can make metallic hydrogen. Is ultra pressurised,super low temperatures. You'd find metallic hydrogen on a surface of a Cont)

gas giant. What Harvard scientist's had to do is replicate the ultra pressure and low temperature found in an atmosphere of a gas giant. They successfully created metallic hydrogen using a "diamond anvil." Although the machine is much much more complex and more unique. Because of the enhanced engineering required to get much higher pressures than the core of Earth. So a few days ago. They actually replicated what a gas giant would do!

Finally! I knew it was group 1 for a reason. :)

How about this weekend?

It's technically in the same group as the alkali metals...

cool, I'm not sure I understand what it means exactly. Are you looking to be an engineer or scientist of some kind as a career?

Okay, if you look at the periodic table, you will see that hydrogen is sometimes considered a metal, but we haven't been able to compress it into a solid state until now.
