But as the Hindenburg disaster demonstrated, hydrogen is also the most difficult element to compress into a safe, usable form.

What part of the Hindenburg disaster demonstrated that hydrogen is the most difficult element to compress into a safe, usable form?

This writer is absolutely clueless.....

The real lesson of the Hindenburg was not to use rocket fuel to paint your dirigible.

If this works, it's worth trying. Yes, we could cover the Southwest with plants like this and algae farms to make biodiesel. We have sunshine and we have ingenious people. And Hugo and Mahmood would be weeping into their beers because China would copy it in a New York minute, and where's the $100 oil?

My chem prof actually didn’t know what happened with the Hindenberg and when I explained it to him he was amazed. Mostly amazed to have somebody in his class who could do something besides parrot back his lectures.
