....The discovery was made possible with the development of a new source of radiation that is ten billion times brighter than any synchrotron in the world (such as the UK’s Diamond Light Source). The FLASH laser, based in Hamburg, Germany, produces extremely brief pulses of soft X-ray light, each of which is more powerful than the output of a power plant that provides electricity to a whole city.

Sounds like we will be producing and using this Transparent Aluminum as soon as we can build a few hundred nuclear power plants to power up those Flash lasers to mass produce this stuff.
