"With its ability to operate at extremely high temperatures, the memory could be used in space exploration missions, deep-well drilling, and in combustion engines, among other applications."

I guess I'm a bit dense here but could anyone tell me how or even why high temp memory would be or could be used in any of the above examples from the article?

Since it's much easier to heat up a device than it is to cool it down, electronics of this type would be ideal in the construction of rovers for hot planets such as Venus. One could use a nuclear reactor to keep the device to the right temperature. Keep up the good work.

This sounds like it uses a lot of energy to operate. Perhaps there are ferroelastic materials that can work at high temperatures (and also at room temperature)
