A step in the right direction, certainly, but "The superconductor has
one serious limitation, however: it survives only under extremely high
pressures, approaching those at the centre of Earth, meaning that it
will not have any immediate practical applications."

Run a power cable through the centre of the earth so we can buy solar
power from Australia when it is dark here?


angle grinder and an SDS should be all you need....
