>>> there's a lot going on.
i would like to introduce you to
the patron saint of pressure.
his name is dr. isaac silveira,
he's a named chair, very fancy
professor at harvard.
he says he just created
something that never existed
before on the face of the earth.
and he and his post-doctoral
researcher, they made this brand
new thing using this little
device which is -- small and
doesn't look that mighty but i
think we've gotten a image of it
here.
this device is called a diamond
anvil cell.
it's basically like a vice where
the two sides of the vice are
specially polished specially
coated synthetic diamonds and
inside the vice grip they can
create inside that little device
they have figured out a way to
produce almost unimaginable
pressure.
