> zero resistance in the material at temperatures higher than 8 Fahrenheit (-13 Celsius), perhaps as high as 44 Fahrenheit (7 Celsius) > The teams synthesized only about a dust-speck worth of [lanthanum hydride] from expensive ingredients crushed to unfathomable pressures between hand-cranked diamond halves While the temperatures are amazing (when I was young, superconductivity above 0 Celsius was the stuff of science fiction), the material might not have commercial applications in the near future. Instead, why not use active cooling and powerful insulation?
