An international scientist collaboration, which consists of 15 researchers, claimed that they transformed water into metal. Their innovation is currently a big deal since the approach they used is quite unique.

For the past few years, most researchers and other experts believed that water is an almost perfect insulator under normal conditions. This means that heat and electricity can t easily pass through the liquid substance.
On the other hand, scientists also explained that water could only develop metallic properties if it is under extreme pressure. This can be seen in the videos showing the core of planets, where a molten metallic liquid is found.
