EXPLORE A PERSPECTIVE
The simplest form of technology is the development and use of basic tools. The prehistoric discovery of how to control fire and the later Neolithic Revolution increased the available sources of food, and the invention of the wheel helped humans to travel in and control their environment.

Kyushu University researchers have taken a significant step towards sustainable energy by developing a solid‐oxide fuel cell (SOFC) that operates efficiently at just 300°C. If you’ve ever been frustrated by the high temperatures required in traditional fuel cells—often running at 700‑800°C—this breakthrough could be a breath of fresh air. By rethinking the design of the […]
