The Front Cover shows the evolution process from fish (H+) to dragon (H2). The fish aim to reach to "Torii (cathode)" through water ball (water cluster) on stone pillar (silanol) by jumping to evolve to dragon. In their Research Article, K. Tashiro, S. Satokawa et al. explain that the proton migrates via the exchange of hydrogen bonding among water molecules in the cluster generated by the silanol nest on the surface of zeolite. This novel pathway enables water electrolysis at neutral pH in aqueous phase.More information can be found in the Research Article by K. Tashiro, S. Satokawa et al.
