Prototype hydrogen ion battery

China: Scientists Unveil World’s First Hydrogen Anion Battery Prototype! (19.9.2025)

Hydrogen anions are highly reactive and polarizable, offering unique energy storage potential. But until now, no electrolyte had combined the high conductivity, thermal stability, and electrode compatibility needed for a functioning battery.

In tests, the prototype used sodium alanate as the cathode and cerium dihydride as the anode. It reached an initial discharge capacity of 984 mAh per gram and maintained 402 mAh per gram after 20 cycles. A stacked version delivered 1.9 volts and successfully powered an LED light, proving its feasibility beyond the lab.

Kim Jong Un Calls for Love of Scientists Across the Nation!

DPRK: Love of Science [and Scientists] Will Build a Powerful Socialist Country! (18.9.2025)

The Wisong Scientists Residential District, the Yonphung Scientists Holiday Camp, which is nearing completion, and the apartment houses for educators of Kim Chaek University of Technology built on the bank of the picturesque Taedong River.

After a while, Kim Jong Un said it is the firm determination of our Party to build a powerful socialist country by dint of science and technology, adding that we should build a new world by dint of science under the leadership of the Party.

He earnestly requested the scientists to make redoubled efforts, always bearing in mind the Party’s plan and intention to build a people’s paradise with science.

That day the officials deeply grasped the noble intention of the peerlessly great man to usher in a new era of prosperity with science and build a powerful socialist country to be admired by the whole world on this land. (End)

China: Flesh Embraces Steel in New Age of Prosthetics Aesthetics! (17.9.2025)

This is because the disabled suffer the greatest extent of discrimination – and many sympathetic able-bodied know that if they step out of line with their able-bodied colleagues – then doors are shut. Indeed, one comment was left at the foot of my article stating that “It is the fault of the disabled. All their extra needs are a burden to the average worker. Why should the average worker make any extra allowances for disabled individuals when they contribute nothing to the system, and are a drain on society? As the disabled produce little (or no) material gain and/or surplus profit through their labour – why should (the workers) share what little they have with them?” And this comment derived not from the right – but from the left! Today, I see comments like this on virtually ALL right-wing and far-right forums – with the left remaining quiet on the subject – whilst simultaneously doing nothing about it! This is the debilitating world of stifled intellectualism we live in in the West. Compare this with the giant strides being made in Socialist China!

I Can See Your Thoughts...

Dialectical Materialism & Rebirth for Marxists! (26.8.2025)

In a moment – things dialectically change forever. When the axe fell on the neck of Charles I in 1649 – the ancient convention of an absolute monarch in England ended forever. How could this have happened? Well, there was a Revolution which saw tens of thousands fight and die in England so that the emerging bourgeois class could usurp political power from the aristocracy. There was no future for the absolute monarchy. And yet the agency of the “moment”, despite its nature, continue to manifest unabated. Rebirth is not reincarnation – the Buddha hinted about the former but rejected the latter. Rebirth may not be what the average Marxist thinks it is. An effective Marxist regime must be replicated effectively from one generation to the next.

Nadia Lauricella, the Sicilian Ironwoman

Italy: The Life-Story of Nadia Lauricella [“Iron-Nadia”]! (12.6.2025)

I believe that everyone must play an active role in their own reality: only in this way can institutions be brought closer to the real needs of citizens, especially in terms of disability. For a disabled person sometimes a step is a problem, a road with potholes, the lack of traffic lights with acoustic signals… Therefore, it is the duty of every citizen to commit ourselves to achieving a truly inclusive society, where everyone’s needs are taken into consideration by those involved in urban planning, architecture and social policies.

NEU Boycott - Science Museum - 2025!

London: Science Museum Funded By Israeli Weapons “Genocide” Supplier – Union Calls for Boycott Over Green-Washing! (11.6.2025)

“Watching the brutal bombing and killing of children this last year has been heartbreaking. And knowing that our public institutions are complicit in these attacks is terrible. How can a museum dedicated to science and innovation for young people take money earned from the sale of weapons used to kill thousands of children?”

The Israeli military launched a campaign in Gaza following the Hamas-led attack on 7 October 2023, in which, according to Israeli tallies, around 1,200 people were killed and 251 others were taken hostage. More than 54,000 people have been killed in Gaza since that date, according to the territory’s health ministry.
