Researchers have discovered a new compound called LK-99 that could enable the fabrication of room-temperature, ambient-pressure superconductors. Two separate sources have provided very preliminary confirmations of this breakthrough, including a simulation indicating it could be possible and a short video from Chinese researchers that seems to indicate some properties of superconductivity.

Superconductor Breakthrough Replicated, Twice, in Preliminary Testing::It's been a rough few days in the condensed matter physics realm following claims of the world's first room-temperature superconductor being achieved. However, work to verify and replicate the results
