Lots of cold atom work doesn't break new ground, but it's really compelling too see things like ultra-clean Fermi-Dirac distributions #DAMOP

@ScientistMel These are the critters, I believe, who can travel interstellar space w/o any protective apparatus.

@ScientistMel One thing for sure - they don't worry about the electric bills!

@nuclear94 The problem of course is that energy based on hydrocarbons is so damned cheap that nothing can compete....
