The economies of other power sources like solar are bound to change with time, research, improving technologies, etc. For power needs upwards of 10MW though, I have a hard time imagining why you'd use something other than a BFR, assuming it works. For satellites, solar panels are probably best. For...

edit : what may be the cause of the delays about the wb-7 working/not working, is it entirely physics related or can the navy be pinchy when it comes to money ?

Polywell and the grid

This is sort of a redundant question, but supposing Polywell works .. would it still be as important to implement the "Smart-Grid" changes for power distribution( with or without installing solar panels) ? .. since Polywell is much cleaner than the fuels used right now, how much of a difference woul...

didnt want to open a new thread just for this, here's something that i was asked : How wide is the vacuum chamber in WB7? And how wide is the centre sphere? I didnt think of checking the WB6/WB7 sizes. There are some numbers given above about coil dimensions, will those values give a size for the va...

Question about Polywell assembly in space

Here's a question someone asked me(and I couldnt answer) : How much cheaper would a break-even polywell be if it were built in space? It's pretty easy to make a vacuum there. Would it also be colder, making it easier to use superconducting magnets? I'm pretty sure it wouldn't be, because the reactor...

Speaking of fusion, summer is well underway. I think we were going to get some solid news on the Polywell results around this time. Any idea on whats going on ?

Edit: News aside from what Dr. Nebel already posted a few weeks ago.

Speaking of car batteries... I wonder how far EESTOR development of the Barium Titanate super capacitors went. This is important because even if we had achieved cheap and reliable fusion source for electricity there still has to be a way to apply it in the transport. Like advanced batteries and ele...

Q&A : Major hurdles to overcome for Polywell Reactors

What are the major hurdles in making a Polywell work right now (besides the obvious size of the machine). What are there obstacles that one might face while trying to reach break-even ? And as far as theory goes, did Dr. Bussard/anyone else face any problems while developing the process on paper ? I...
