Day 5 - Kagoshima university... Inn siang

Kagoshima university is the next place we are heading. When we first arrived at the university, the place was crowded with students in costumes as the university is holding a culture festival.

Go Go Power Rangers!!

Japanese are really daring in their dressing















After experiencing the festival,we arrived at the lecture room and had a lecture conducted by Prof . Kozo Obara on hydrogen. He begin with an introduction and discussion on Technology in the world. From his lecture, I've learn that technology is advancing at a rapid pace.For example , our carbon based - economy is facing a big problem -scarcity for oil and coal. Hence , it is important to source for new energy source.Thus , he introduced the use of hydrogen in Hydrogen-powered cars. However, engineers always seek improvements in technology. Prof. Kozo Obara introduces the use of Mg + H20-> MgO+H2 instead of the former water + steam. Magnesium Oxide (Mg0) can be processed through laser and the process is repeated to obtain Hydrogen. Magnesium solids are easily obtained from the sea thus it is not harmful to our environment at all.This could be our solution to our world's crisis and i hope Singapore would implement the system of using hydrogen-powered cars in the near future when this technology is easily accessible.
