The Germans and the French are turning plastic bottles into diamonds

Researchers from Germany and France investigated a method for simulating conditions found on planets like Uranus and Neptune. Scientists from the Helmholtz Centre in Dresden, the University of Rostock, and the École Polytechnique in Paris utilized a laser to create diamond dust from a thin PET film, effectively “nicking” the material. The study examined the possible processes occurring on these gas giants by replicating the experiment on Earth.
