Fusion won't happen for the simple reason it needs a helluva lot of energy to initiate and it's impossible to control.

Its not impossible in fact newer tests have had the reactor and process running for lengthy periods. End of day in 10 or so years we will crack it. Why give up on a idea because we "cant do it", we wont get anywhere with that attitude.

It will work.

The only thing is, if it takes more than ten years, the kids will be fightin to keep the third world from overwelming the first world. Then again, the 'Fuzzies' dont like it up them..... ;)

The way we live now has to change. We have the technology for the most part ( lpg..dual fuelled half electric cars) and everything else.


Its public attitude of not caring which means the goverments will do w/e they want.

Re: It's getting windier.
 

Sad as this may sound I've actually really enjoyed the scientific aspects of this thread (possibly more so than the doom and gloom side of things)..... Perhaps we could do with a "Science Can Be Fun" thread / section so that we can post and discuss different "interesting" scientific facts.

If it was a whole section we could have whole threads devoted to one topic rather than a confusing mish-mash of different stuff.

Is there likely to be much call for this or am I the only saddo on CF?

Re: It's getting windier.
 

if it involves space exploration and technology im game :D.

Re: It's getting windier.
 

Where did I say it was impossible?

I just said it wasn't really viable without significant refinement of current ideas.

Re: It's getting windier.
 

our ideas are sound..its our technology which needs work.

Sadly with any new thing it requres money, and until the goverment gives enough cash it will take time to happen.

Re: It's getting windier.
 

Well i was justing chatting away on msn to someone talking about the weather in Carlisle as i have relatives there and in hte article it says 5000 homes in berkshire without power, this person then asks me if i have power at home?!?

Are you a physicist? :D

Re: It's getting windier.
 

a what? :confused:

Re: It's getting windier.
 

Whoever could be that daft ???? :erm: :angel: :D :D :D :dunce: :dunce:

Re: It's getting windier.
 

sad physics person.

Just wondered...

Re: It's getting windier.
 

Whats sad about having a interest in future technology which could help us in upcoming years.


Sad to me is people who scoff at ideas, then embrace them once they are released.

Re: It's getting windier.
 

Nothing, just wondered :)
