I don’t think it’s that misleading honestly, and anything with scarcity in the right quantity can be worth billions, also subjective as to what manufacturers will pay per pound, less than 1000 Tons of material can be worth billions..
If you can make a new material that can be used in ways no other material can, yes, it will be worth billions.
Strange, though. I remember a man about 20 years ago that invented a material that was so durable it couldn't be melted, and was nearly impossible to cut. It was reported, then never heard about again.
And do U remember when they invented a car paint that never got dirty? Never have to wash your car? I was eagerly awaiting for a car like that, never came out…
I think those ideas are taken by agencies like NASA, or the DoD, for "national security reasons". Once they get their use out of it and have advanced it, they release the original version 20 years later as a "new" invention.
It has the potential to be worth billions to the aerospace industry
At this moment the title appears accurate. But, the news cast is being misleading.
The actual NASA employee gave this statement:
This has the potential to generate billions in economic activity.
this shows that the alloy itself is not worth billions, if it were, they wouldn't show exactly how it is made. Instead the technology opens the door for jobs and missions.
Correct, opening the door for jobs which the workers wages will be paid by the sale of powder they are producing, I really don’t see how you’re so hung up on this, it all seems pretty obvious which is why I didn’t refine the headline, anyone can misinterpret something, it happens.
Don't you think that if someone stands for truth, it's best to spread information as truthfully as possible? Spreading truthful information with a headline that could easily be misunderstood to convey something untrue undermines itself.
Say it’s used in an industry that might send rockets into space to mine asteroids for rare minerals. Would it be worth Trillions now if that was the only tech stopping it from being reality? Not to say that is the case but hypothetically I’d say that would be a reasonable idea we could both agree on
Headline is slightly misleading. The alloy itself is not worth billions. The alloy will allow for NASA potentially spend billions in new missions.

At first within the video the news cast says:
