Why is carbon such an interesting element? It can take so many forms such as diamonds, coal, graphite, carbon black, carbon nanotubes, and buckyballs, just to name a few. But today, let\'s talk about graphene and why it could lead a revolution into the next technological age. Plus, let\'s discuss some interesting new research into graphene\'s superconducting properties and how it can be produced cheaply and efficiently using an ingenious new method. And all this falls under the umbrella of materials science so we have to understand where society has come from so we can understand how we move forward in terms of understanding and studying materials.
