Amazing story in the news recently. Apparently scientists have discovered a rock that is very similar to 'kryptonite', the fictional substance in the Superman films (the headline read 'Scientists discover Kryptonite').
My hopes were slightly dashed when I read the story in full and I learned that kryptonite is a green crystal which saps the incredible superhuman powers of our fictional hero and this new found rock is a white crystal and totally harmless.
So other than those two things, the likeness is uncanny! That said I doubt it has been tested on anyone from the planet Krypton, so you never know!
