deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Prof. J.B. Goodenough. I have tremendous respect for this remarkable scientist. It is an immense loss for the entire scientific community. I still get inspired by a short discussion I had with him couple of years before.

The decision not to fly the experimental X-57 came about because the agency discovered that the propulsion system had the potential to fail and put people at risk. https://t.co/34cD4B7Onc
