该小组还正在努力寻找一种更常见的,更便宜的催化剂,以代替在验证性概念研究中使用的相对昂贵和稀有铱催化材料。
The team is also working to find a more commonplace, less-expensive material for the catalyst, to replace the relatively rare and costly iridium used in this proof-of-concept study.
铱,通常被用于太空火箭,比铂金稀有十倍并且高度耐热,因此理论上即使它掉进岩浆中也不会熔化。
Iridium, usually used in space rockets, is ten times rarer than platinum and highly resistant to heat so theoretically it can be dropped it into lava, and it will not melt.
依此思路推测,它有点像“铱闪光”,它是由太阳光反射到铱卫星上所产生。
