Joe Eck Continues to Find High Meissner Transitions – Now -40 Centigrade

Joe Eck continues to find materials with higher Meissner Transitions which indicate superconductivity. Since we are now just a “stone’s throw” from room temperature, he has placed this discovery into the public domain without patent protection. Other researchers are encouraged to examine this material and its structure. 40 degrees below zero is cold by any …
