Regarding the inconsistencies: is it possible that some rough (and cheap) process results in removing e.g. almost all Ni58, a big chunk of Ni60 (slightly heavier) while leaving almost all Ni 62 and all Ni 64? Not eliminating or separating precisely, but rather roughly and incompletely sorting accord...

I think though, what you both meant is that M-E use could explain the acceleration in expansion. That makes perfect sense given the "arrow of time" definition for entropy: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Entropy_(arrow_of_time) Yes, acceleration. I misread the post I was replying to. Edit: I wonder if...

How can you justify exothermic heavy element fission, if the energy output from adding nucleons to progressively heavier nuclei is always exothermic. You could cycle between say nickel and uranium, gaining energy from both pathways. He would use some H on the way to U and end up with more Ni after ...

Here's an amusing thought: what if the reason for the slowing of the expansion of the universe is that millions of civilizations are out there flying around trillions of ships using ME drives harvesting momentum from the universe? :lol: Funny, that was one of my first thoughts when I tried to under...

Just registered an account to throw in my 2 cents: (...)ultimately the problem of converting fusion products to electricity is the same as the problem of converting decaying alpha particles to electricity, so the question stil stands: if its easy to convert fusion products to electricity at an effic...
