How cool is this? An MIT Materials Camp for high-school science teachers where they made....Frankensteel. And they can recreate the experience for their students back home. @mitmrl mrl.mit.edu/index.php/compon…

A lot of damage inside nuclear reactors is so small it’s difficult to detect. Now @MIT researchers Michael Short, Scott Kemp, and DMSE’s Ju Li can measure the damage, potentially extending the lifetimes of nuclear power plants. @mit_nse @MITEngineering buff.ly/3zA6I6D

A team from @mitmrl including Prof. Yang Shao-Horn have mapped what happens at the atomic level in metal electrolysis. The work could become an important design tool for optimizing the production of metals such as lithium, iron and cobalt mitsha.re/9AqZ50J6piY 📸: Lesley Rock
