Clean energy is a big deal, and hydrogen is a superstar in this field. One cool way to generate hydrogen is by breaking down urea in water. This happens in a process called urea oxidation reaction (UOR). Scientists have created a special electro-catalyst to make this happen in salty water, similar t

Imagine trying to create a crystal out of water. Sounds impossible, right? Well, scientists have just done something pretty close. They've made something called a "fluidic moiré superlattice" using swirling vortices in fluids. This is like a special kind of crystal made from water! Here's how they
