A research team from the Russian NUST MISIS Department of Non-Ferrous Metals and Gold, has developed an industrial method of recycling aluminum and non-ferrous metals for the production of hydrogen as an alternative environmentally-friendly fuel. With this new technology, processing one aluminum soda can (with a volume of .33 liters) will fuel a car for 20 meters.

This Incredibly Rare Deep-Sea Video of Mating Anglerfish Is Stunning Biologists
Anglerfish are weird and mysterious creatures. They live hundreds of metres below sea level, and we have very few specimens of these bizarre animals. Even fewer have been seen alive in the deep ocean they inhabit.
But a new video released through Science Magazine shows not just one, but two anglerfish, in the 'close' mating arrangement these creatures are known for.
But despite how exciting and weird these creatures are, there's only a handful of videos, and never one of a mating pair… until now.
