Blacklight Power is the news with a peer reviewed article in The European Physical Journal D - Atomic, Molecular, Optical and Plasma Physics DOI: 10.1140/epjd/e2011-20455-x. Time-resolved hydrino continuum transitions with cutoffs at 22.8 nm and 10.1 nm. I'll up my odds of them actually being on to ...

:o Why is anything as fragile as 'foam' used on the external construction to begin with? Although the shuttle is a fairly lousy design for efficient and economical space flight the major problems with foam and debris damage to the orbiters coinsided with the reformulation of the foam to remove CFC'...

You have a good point, but bioengineered plastic has the big disadvantage that to manufacture it you need to use land otherwise used to produce food. Cheap oil will eventually drive the use of land toward more profitable crops. Actually with the use of yeast you just need the equivalent of large Br...

I doubt the plastic and rubbers from oil will surge too much there is a quite revolution occurring in Biotech Plastics that is happening whether or not Polywell is successful. Biosynthesis: Yeast yields plastic ingredient Nature Volume:467, Page: 887 Date published: (21 October 2010) DOI: 10.1038/46...

Much as it pains me to agree with Liberals/Progressives/Leftists I do agree that politics should be kept in the General Section. Furthermore I wouldn't mind if the General Section is subdivided into Science&Technology, Environment, Politics/Economics, and Miscellaneous but kept inside the General Se...

"Concerning #3, the idea that viruses cause at least some types of cancer (or at least contributes to them in a significant manner- multi insult theory) is well accepted now. The prime example would be cervical cancer. that is caused by the virus that causes genital warts. There has been suspicion t...

"An intellectually crazy bunching of experiments. It's a bit like saying you are interesting in flying so you're keeping an eye out for news on jet airliners, personal jet backpacks, intergalactic cruisers and dragons." I'm also curious about many other things, theories, and hypothesis. Many of them...

"As to you giving BLP several more years, what in the world made you think you set someone else's schedule? How absurd." Obviously they don't live by my schedule but the longer BLP takes the worse things look for them. Example ITER and tokamak reactors. Any project that goes Long is usually encounte...

I cringe even to enter this discussion but I will. Theses are my personal observations as a scientist outside the fields of chemistry and physics. 1) Mills probably has an interesting phenomenon in his lab. 2) Mills probably is a genius but even geniuses may be wrong and get tunnel vision on an inco...

I agree there is little hope (no hope) for a gamma ray laser or xray laser microscope to scan tissue in a non destructive manner. However for laboratory research they would still be a great improvement over scanning tunneling electronmicroscopy, standard electron microscopy, and atomic force microsc...

Doesn´t gamma ray lasers open the possibility of molecular level detail scanning methodes? Like, "counting number of neurons in a brain" detail? We can already image at molecular level detail. It's called the electron microscope. Also, neurons are a lot bigger than molecules, so we don't actually n...

Back on the South Korea Corvette that was sunk the South Korean government investigation has concluded that the ship was sunk by a YU-3 Torpedo. But has not proven who fired the torpedo (LOL groan). http://www.businessinsider.com/south-korea-confirms-that-a-direct-heavy-torpedo-sank-the-cheonan-2010-5

via a modern magnetic influence torpedo Since you are a military weapons tech, you should know that magnetic pistols to trigger torpedoes already existed during WW2. I am not 100% sure about mines, but if they had them for torpedoes in WW2, they should have had them for mines in the Korea War at le...

I don't regard anything coming from the Huffington Post as credible. Arianna Huffington is a nut, and so are the people who write at the Huffington Post. Daily Kos probably has more credibility. They are at least up front about their partisanship This was just the first of many links that came up w...

Really? This happens a lot or are you just blowing smoke? It is a relatively rare event, and rarer still that the damage should be so extensive. Google is your friend: http://home.versatel.nl/the_sims/rig/i-blowout.htm What do they achieve by blowing a South Korean warship in two? I admit that I am...
