I'd call it multiple spindle cusps.

Real glad to hear Dr. Park wants to try the dodec.

Methane?! Mars is a decoy. Musk is working on establishing Skynet Core on Titan, where the Human Resistance can't get to it.

OK, so this encouraged my non-physicist brain to ask: while I get that such vast energies are needed to make such a powerful wave, how does the mass of the two black holes, which I *think is mostly locked up in the singularities, get converted to gravitational energy and successfully emitted in the...

Dr. Park, Thank you for taking questions. Here are mine: 1. What are the prospects for operating Polywell in a steady-state vs. a pulsed mode? 2. Does the use of p-11B make steady-state operation easier or harder? 3. The Lockheed patent suggests that they are exploring dynamic compression effects by...

Controlling mice* with lasers: http://medicalxpress.com/news/2016-02-cortex-skilled-movement.html At any point after a mouse began to reach for its food pellet with its right paw, Hantman and his colleagues could abruptly halt the action by switching on the laser that silenced the left motor cortex....

Some biologicals consider mere radio waves as slim pickins. They prefer gammas:

It also mentions a new startup from the UK: http://firstlightfusion.com/about Electromagnetic launcher fires a projectile that impacts a piston at the end of a gas-or-liquid-filled cylinder (with initial interior bubble), creating a planar shock wave that travels along the cylinder. Reminds me of s...

The Politically Correct solution:

As long as you can still distinguish relative reality from absolute reality, you should do fine.

Wait a minute. Could we have detected the Swarm Mother's invasion fleet? :idea: Someone let DeltaV know about this thread. Need some input on that. My story diverged from our timeline/universe when I had Marguur'eketok'k order the Master of Weapons to destroy the Dawn probe at Ceres, thereby painti...
