Interesting Idea for Hydrogen Fuel

One research group has developed a safe method for storing hydrogen that uses glass spheres. The amount of hydrogen released is controlled by light intensity at a specific frequency. A rupture tank full of spheres would not release much hydrogen at all. The spheres are so small that only a powerful direct impact will shatter them. Fling them onto a hard roadway and nothing will happen.
