I found this forum thread on Bremsstrahlung losses. It is very informative and Tim Ligon even made some posts there. Have a look:

And does SpaceDev want the same thing too? SpaceDev is a public corporation owned by its shareholders. I am a big shareholder and I could easily team up with other shareholders to make this into a reality but ofcourse I would not do this if it would be impossible or a bad idea financially speaking ...

Great idea, he can fund the next stage for EMC2 by lunch. However it is going to be a hard time connecting him, I'm certain that he is bombarded with thousands of offers every day. Paul Allen IS bombarded with ideas. He has this firm called 'Vulcan' that engage in philanthropy. But most ideas he ge...

Nanos Being Jewish myself and having lived in Israel. Let me give you some facts about middle east. Because westerners look at the issues with western eyes and get the situation in the wrong way always. First of all the money spent on the Iraq war is nothing compared to the riches in the Iraqi soil ...

Can someone list all the hardware needed to make a IEC Polywell Fusion Reactor? Also if possible list the approx price of the hardware.

MSimon That is great. This is exactly what I am talking about. Wikify Fusion. If we manage to get 50 people like yourself and Indrek then we could get something going. I could also donate some off my time. And as i said before. If this was done as a subsidiary to a corporation some of the compensati...

From a financial perspective, Benson needs to raise $200+ Million to build suborbital space ships, but issuing more stock would dilute the shares of existing stock holders. You know how far he is in the process of getting the funds needed to build dream chaser? //Rexxam62 (this is starting to get o...

What is your magical idea to raise money then?

Very good point!

Jim Benson left SpaceDev because he started "Benson Space Company" that works on trying to raise funds to build a suborbital spacecraft. BSC will <probably< buy their engines from SpaceDev though.

JoeStrout "As for option #2, public funding doesn't necessarily have to come from the US federal government. It could come from a state government, or from some other country, or even from a charitable organization." The White House would never let another country fund something like this. For examp...

I donated $100 to the Bussard Foundation. Will probably donate $1k more. But again something needs to happen if this is going to be done for real. And there are three ways if you ask me: 1. Someone rich fund it all in a one time lump sum (Some rich guy would probably love to fund it but given the ad...

Zixinus In a perfect world we would pay everyone all they wanted. But in capitalism we always have limited resources and have to compromise! Always! in order to get things done. But again it was just ideas. Working in the field of finance myself I also need to note that the price of University educa...

Btw I found this web page made by an Estonian software engineer who has coded three videos of polywell fusion and put them on YouTube. They are pretty neat. Check it out. http://www.mare.ee/indrek/ephi/ His name on YouTube is: harakas42 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hHrKLlvkts4 http://www.youtube.c...

I have talked with Bussard and know that his new EMC2 foundation have taken in only a couple of $k so far. That has lead me to think if there is some other way to make the $5m tests then traditional capitalism just to prove it out. Because when the two tests he intend to do with the $5m are proven t...
