http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20090530/ts_alt_afp/usitresearchmilitarylaser_20090530082418 this read just sorta made me think of the death star lasers... and seems to be a big jump to more efficient energy.
if everyone knew the amount of actual conspiracy by guv and commercial concerns.... ....they'd be running for the hills and arming themselves. its mostly hiding in plain sight.
wow, yahoo news is dumbed down to shit. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/8044620.stm edit: also the nif website: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/sci/tech/8044620.stm in other fusion news: http://www.generalfusion.com/ http://www.popsci.com/scitech/article/2008-12/machine-might-save-world
Awesome. I thought the only problem with fusion energy was the startup energy cost? Wouldn't this make it much more feasible?
I'd like to point out that just a week or so ago a few people here were talking about how the US sucks now since places like Taiwan are building things like solar powered football stadiums before us. We were too busy building a death ray thankyouverymuch
This Death Star shoots it's beam into it's own center, however! This thing rivals the large hadron collider for complexity.
statue of liberty was given to us by the french. half of nasa is foreigners and germans phelps.. is no longer anything important with his recent losing streak tiger woods had eye corrective surgery.. cheater. theres far more beautiful women in the world than a blond with a usa bikini on and we didnt land on the moon. j/k
aw cmon dude, the thread was super patriotic until you posted that =( something about a death star that fires inside itself throws me off
If we have one, you can bet we aren't the only ones. something about weapons in space that kinda tells me we'll never get off this planet.
