It's interesting, but I remember that 'High temperature' superconductors were predicted to work at 250K by the 2000s and we are still nowhere close. I understand they want grant money and have to sell this as the future, but that triggers in me a bit of hatred against the public founding current system.

The experiments seems really neat though.
