Deep Hole Hydrogen

October 15, 2025  •  EPISODE 282

Hidden far below the Earth’s surface may lie the key to a cleaner energy future. In this episode of Science LIVE, Dr. Roger Billings introduces Project Deep Hole—an ambitious effort to uncover naturally occurring hydrogen. Discover how this remarkable element forms deep underground, how scientists are locating and capturing it, and why it could revolutionize the way we power our world.

    The technology spotlight was interesting! Superconductives happen when the conductive is cooled below a critical temp, which causes it to lose all electrical resistance. Someone created a motor using liquid hydrogen is lighter and more efficient.

    Super conductors have to be very cold in order to function.
