Korean Hydrogen Explosions, Leaks, Auction Failure & Impeachment May Cause Pivot

Credit to Author: Michael Barnard| Date: Fri, 17 Jan 2025 04:14:09 +0000

The hydrogen atom is tiny. Getting enough of it in one place requires pressures found at three to seven kilometers under the surface of the ocean. Unsurprisingly, it leaks. As it’s an indirect greenhouse gas and an explosion risk, that’s a big problem. South Korea has been learning exactly what … [continued]
