Okay, I pretty much feel like crap today and really am not into anything serious. And yes, I was out last night to play. It is what it is. But put on your tin foil hats today. There really isn’t going to be much science in this article, and to be honest, I don’t buy
Interesting concept, eh? I am an avid reader, and one of the fictional book series I read was about this not being the first industrial civilization on Earth. I actually got into a discussion about this on an astronomy site I was part of at the time. It was pretty much stated that we would
A lot of the posts that I make here are driven by an article I saw either on my phone or someplace else. And this one is no different. In the case of this specific post, I decided to go beyond what the article was talking about and include some of the different things I
Nuclear fusion. This has been one of the ultimate goals of nuclear power research for what seems like forever. Every few years, we hear about another breakthrough.
