Description

Do you wanna hear something weird about...ice?

Not just any ice, but salty ice. The kind you find on those icy moons hanging around the outer solar system.Β 

Turns out, scientists have discovered that you can actually generate electricity from it - just by bending it. Like, literally squishing salty ice and pulling power out of it like it’s an angry little frozen battery.

And yes, it is precisely as bizarre and brilliant as it sounds...
