Water makes hydrogen, I guess

My brain hurts.

Hmmmmm

Mine too

There is no such thing as a water-powered vehicle. If that was the case, it would have already been universally implemented.

it's not economical anyways, that is why it never really took off

That's why it's a project *in development*

I saw an air powered car

If it already existed, it wouldn't be obscure

a car with a sail on it?

If it were possible it wouldn't be 'obscure'

WRONG

the oil industry man...

I don't know enough about it, to make an argument

The basic scientific principles behind it would be widespread and commonly available.

I'm just saying it was a thing the company was working on

And I call bullshit.

Prove it.

Sure, awesome

it has already been tried, i wonder why they are working on it now

U maaaaad

@Somi https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_splitting#Patents

It does exist

https://www.autoevolution.com/news/tata-starts-project-to-use-water-as-fuel-29189.html

Yes I fucking mad, I absolutely hate the spreading of misinformation

It's a nuclear reaction

@Baraban which is a process that takes more power than it provides, next please.

I'm not spreading misinformation, dude

Im saying it was a project

That a company

Is working on

'Ratan Tata, who among others also owns the Indian car manufacturer Tata Motors, will fund a project of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) to research new ways of using the hydrogen in water as a replacement for fuel.'

So it's not a water powered car, it's a hydrogen powered car.

is there a difference between a chemical reaction and a nuclear reaction?

"Tata has given $15 million to fund the research being conducted by MIT professor Daniel Nocera on using water as auto fuel. The project involves generating hydrogen by splitting water and storing it in a safe can to drive an automobile"

*water as auto fuel*

Generating hydrogen from the water, yes

Jesus fucking christ the <:thonk:397491814539591701> here is incredible.

@Deleted User In a chemical reaction you don't split the atom

What are all of you, 12? Not yet having completed the most basic courses in chemistry and/or physics in middle school?

it's not about splitting atoms though
