Beyond cool. If doable it brings the real 4th industrial revolution in areas such as energy storage, space exploration and many others.

And the "gas station with nukes" was one of the first there?

LOL, turns out they really do think like gas station guys! "Since vacuum is no longer needed, the equipment not just works faster but also becomes cheaper. “Once you drop the high-end hardware for generating ultrahigh vacuum, you can actually assemble our garage solution for no more than $1,000,” the researcher stresses."

My favorite is water desalination. Because it will lower desalination costs sufficient to make desalination costs cheap enough for desert agriculture. That would effectively double the size of habitable earth.
