It may open up space travel in ways we haven’t dreamed of.
I could see these caps revolutionizing cyclotron research...smaller but much more powerful storage caps needed to store energy for the power bursts necessary to smash atoms...the size of the equipment needed being reduced by orders of magnitude.(reminds me of the condensor used to build the “Interocitor” in “This Island Earth”).

It is serendipitous irony that Carbon, whose Atomic number is 6, which is the basic building block of all life, may also provide the breakthru’s needed for unlimited clean energy production and/or highly efficient storage of electrical power.

I agree! The possibilities a mind-boggling! As an aside,“This Island Earth” is one of my favorite movies. Saw it at The Willow Theater in 1955, when I was 9!
