Though it has been over a century since the R.M.S. Titanic sank after hitting an iceberg, modern-day ships remain as vulnerable to such catastrophes. The most recent disaster occurred in May 2019, when a sightseeing boat on the Danube River in Hungary capsized and sank after colliding with a river cruise ship, killing 28 of the 35 tourists aboard. Now, researchers from New York's University of Rochester may have found a way to avert such tragedies, with a water-repellant metal that can stay afloat even after having several holes drilled in it.

- weebofweebs2235년 이상great so when will they build a new titanic.... JK they already are!!! in 2022 they will set sail to a new titanic, taking the same route as before... I hope they use this metal, it will really help them actually finish the voyage... or maybe they'll have bad luck
- mariowilldogo5년 이상How do you like share be cause I am new.
- somerandomkid5년 이상Thats pretty cool. The metal can't sink.... wow
- lol122235년 이상pretty cool
- jamezen24405년 이상thats pretty awesome!
- beastwill5년 이상if we can make a metal that can bent and wear like clothes , and combine it with this, we can literally"walk on water"
- iluvtodoroki165년 이상bruh that would be sooo cool!!
- a_username5년 이상Poseidon [the Greek god of water] can walk on water. Watermelons are 90% water. I can walk on watermelons. Wouldn't that mean I'm 90% Poseidon?
- currentevent5885년 이상Great idea!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I agree. wat yall thinking.
- crazyfangirl5년 이상with that idea, it would also be good in the army for armor. if only it was also fire and bullet proof!
- a_username5년 이상That's actually a good idea [?]
- smatman5년 이상Theoretically, yes, but due to gravity, walking using this material would flip you over while walking on water.
- iluvtodoroki165년 이상oh well mabye we can make a device that would prevent that from happening?
- gripair5년 이상:) nice
- temperedglass5년 이상The concept has great potential for what it could do to water transportation in the future, and I can see it working out for medium-sized transportation. The execution should go well with this type of potential, as long as whoever's developing/working with this material doesn't mess it up.
