Professor Philip Moriarty takes issue with a paper by scientists claiming to achieve room temperature superconductivity.

The First Room-Temperature Ambient-Pressure Superconductor: https://arxiv.org/abs/2307.12008

Key critique points:

• Team has little to no background in superconductivity
• Evidence of levitation can be explained without superconductivity
• Graph showing drop in resistance uses a scale which is orders of magnitude off the scale
• Graph showing drop in resistance shows it does not drop (close) to zero

Phil regrets this bad publication which received so much attention could have a negative impact on credibility of science as a whole.
