Re: Helion Energy to demonstrate net electricity production by 2024
I've written a few long, detailed answers to a few people objections and doubts, that took me some time to compose to my satisfaction, and they are just hidden to everyone. :roll: YouTube apparently allows content posters to "hide users", meaning they can select users to make their comments invisib...

Re: Helion Energy to demonstrate net electricity production by 2024
The shock of net electric from fusion in a 50 MWe plant prototype machine will be earth shattering. Imagine the solar, wind, battery pushers once the announcement blows up the narrative, not to mention the fission people. This worries me. Some of them are so invested that they might do everything t...

Re: Helion Energy to demonstrate net electricity production by 2024
David Kirtley replied to the Helion Energy tweet, adding:
These are going to be some big FRCs! As particle confinement time scales as r^2.9, this going to let us go to even higher temperatures and longer burn times.
Re: EM Drive
IVO Limited has announced that they rebooked for October on SpaceX transporter 9. No indication whether this was a last minute decision or not. EDIT: Think about this a little, it's possible that some new test failed, or they realized they needed to revisit their results in the light of some new tho...

Re: Helion Energy to demonstrate net electricity production by 2024
A little depressing how negative the general reaction to the Helion/Microsoft power delivery agreement has been. A lot of "Helion is a scam", "Helion can't possibly deliver", "Helion hasn't published enough to be credible", etc.
