Long-lasting batteries could be used for emergency equipment
and in spaceflight
From cell phones to cars and flashlights, batteries play an
important role in everyday life. Scientists and technology companies constantly
are seeking ways to improve battery life and efficiency. Now, for the first
time using a water-based solution, researchers at the University of Missouri
have created a long-lasting and more efficient nuclear battery that could be
used for many applications such as a reliable energy source in automobiles and
also in complicated applications such as space flight.
