    Nuclear fusion reactor in South Korea runs at 100 million degrees C for a record-breaking 48 seconds

    Time will tell, just like it has so far. Who said anything about cold fusion? Don't paint my house and then tell me how bad it looks. As for knowledge of particles, we only have a mathematical description. Not a physical one and no mention of structure or substance. Or motion, except an...

    Nuclear fusion reactor in South Korea runs at 100 million degrees C for a record-breaking 48 seconds

    We don't need 150 million degrees for power generation, all we need is super heated water. That's far, far too much overhead. Even if you could sustain those temps, fusion will never pay off. We have no clue how atoms and particles behave, and no clue as to how fusion happens. Solving the...

    Are we prepared for Chinese preeminence on the moon and Mars? (op-ed)

    Have you ever made a selfish choice? Decided something completely on your own? Did it frighten you? or excite you? Or maybe someone has made your choices for you? I haven't met too many lately that are like that. Years ago yes, today no. I was just curious, lot's of my choices have been...

    SpaceX's Starship could help this start-up beam clean energy from space. Here's how (video)

    Wouldn't that put an abrupt stop to radio astronomy on earth? Could it knock our cell towers out? And what about all the sat networks? Military sats. Everything uses microwave today. A recent threat raised was about disrupting these systems. The loss of such turns us into an over populated...

    What would happen if the moon disappeared?

    Interesting. If the moon could be removed without effecting earth, I bet this would be a terrible place to try to live. Talk about climate change. I believe that the tides limit and break the amount of wave superposition of wind waves and rotational waves. Without tides, waves could grow...

    Question Earth Moon Origin

    After this moon mating event, at what distance did the moon first settle? Was there water on the surface at this time? When oceans did appear....was the moon locked like it is today? What was the frequency and height of the first tides? Is there only a certain distance range......where an...

    The enigma of what lies beyond our observable universe

    They certainly propose that for the earth moon system. My understanding is that all satellites(moons) in our system are expanding. All solar system orbits. I have read this several times thru the years. But I don't keep the references. So that's what my comments propose as an explanation...

    The enigma of what lies beyond our observable universe

    We have only measured orbits in this one system. Measurements of other systems have too much play for comparison. And in this system all orbits are expanding at a slow rate. And if the only force holding it together is Sol's gravity, then the force of that gravity is slowly decaying. For...

    The enigma of what lies beyond our observable universe

    Even if you could accelerate or "space expand" a star faster than light, the emission from it would still be c. The velocity of the emitter in no way affects/effects the velocity of the emission. It can only shift it's so called "frequency", not it's velocity. You can go warp 10 and still...

    Wow! Private space-junk probe snaps historic photo of discarded rocket in orbit

    I have a feeling that with the reduced weight and size without losing function, many more countries and private companies will be putting sats in orbit. For all kinds of reasons and profits. Trying to pick pieces probably couldn't keep up with new deposits. We need to figure a way to sweep...

    Beavers are helping fight climate change, satellite data shows

    We consumers and the world leaders are in the midst of generating the greatest fossil fuel emissions ever seen. We will all see, if this present climate theory holds out. And the affects/effects of it. Man made climate change will no longer be only theory. It will be a completed...

    Armed Astronauts?

    If I go to Mars, I'm taking my gun.

    Are we prepared for Chinese preeminence on the moon and Mars? (op-ed)

    Capitalism is the only system that takes man's self interest, his strongest motive, and benefits all of society with that selfish motive. It's pure genus. A true blessing. It's not taught because it comes from common simple societies.......not academic societies. Academics are not needed for...

    There is a way to know....now!

    Right now we can only detect light of a certain age. To a certain age. And therefore a certain distance. This is because of the sensitivity of our instruments and the back ground noise level. And the fact that light dissolves with distance. Light can get so old, that it losses it's...

    Question black holes

    That's one of those theories that should, but don't. We have several of those. We still stick to the should but don't theories, and have other should theories to explain the don't theories. We try to strike a balance of should and don't. Our only understanding for this is our confidence...
