Engineers have created special metal tubes that will not sink, even if they are damaged. This new idea could help make ships safer and also be used to get energy from the ocean waves.

[en] How political conspiracy theories start and spread, and why people believe them
Some systematic background to #conspiracy theories or "#conspiracisms" (Prof. Tyson).
"I think now we’re just well past the point of no return," says Tyson, who teaches an undergraduate class on conspiracy theories ...
"Conspiracy theories thrive especially in environments where #uncertainty, ſfear, or #distrust are rampant ..."

[en] Superconductivity Scandal: Stunning Science Fraud Report by Nature News Team
Once "up-and-coming star of the physics world" claiming "to have discovered the first room-temperature superconductor", researcher Dias "is now infamous for the scandal that surrounds his work."

Ranga Dias claimed to have discovered the first room-temperature superconductors, but the work was later retracted. An investigation by Nature’s news team reveals new details about what happened — and how institutions missed red flags.
I live in #WesternNY so I followed this case.
It's a great piece of #investigative #reporting by #Nature's news team. which they are careful to note is independent editorially from the science journal.
TLDR:
Dude fabricates #superconductivity research, destroys his career,
poisons his students' careers,
sullies #UniversityOfRochester's reputation,
and brings into question the credibility of Nature's review process.
What a FUBAR.
