What's the point? That's like turning Gold into Lead.

How does one turn gold into lead?
If this is true (yet to be peer reviewed) or duplicated outside this company. It would mean gold is no longer a precious metal. Mercury would be.

>>40790354
coincidentally there was somthing at the same published about how they used gold as a the material where they for a micro sceond (or maybe nano second) heated it to 19k kelvin and it didnt melt. Why so gold inspired in what they are releasing?

>>40790354
Also did you even read the article? It means power plants of the fure could actually produce gold as a byproduct while also charging you as a consumer. It mentions nothing about lower prices for consumers. just a lower cost to mass produce.

How do I build a rotating mercury engine? I remember reading (here probably) mercury antigravity tech is old news now. Surely the MIC won't mind if I construct a little craft and go flying around

Im not an engineer. Just an advocate of little talked about awesome material. Liquid metal (mercury) should have some incredible properties other than being poisonous which is all the public is taught.

Can you imagine a fluid that also transfers charge?

it means you are multiplying by lighgt speeds

Turning mercury into plasma and spinning it around inside aluminum.

>>40790554
you dont turn it into plasma.

>>40790566
you play god or the universe by fucking up some universal balance.

>>40790566
You do. You don't have to since you can just use a spinning source of electrostatic radiation. But you do. Especially when you pressurize it. Don't lie to people.

>>40790582
want to explain then?

>>40790613
You feed electricity into a liquid metal until it turns into a gas.

>>40790649
where do you get the electricity from (energy)

>>40790727
What the actual fuck does that even have to do with your initial argument?
I smell the glow coming off of you

Isn't mercury a lot more rare than gold?

>>40790542
u mean water?

Mercury will cause brain damage, do not hold it in your hand and damn sure dont eat it, highly toxic

For $350 I will sell you a transmogrifier.

>Organic Mercury
Elemental mercury is perfectly safe to handle, but the fumes should be avoided. The organic compounds are what that video is talking about.

Mercury has been /x/ its a Psychedelic Liquid Metal that extracts Gold from Earth
