NASA has never been one to not have a few good missions unfolding, not the least of which is the Artemis space ship and it’s trip to the moon next week. And then there’s the Lunar Flashlight..On the moon, we must find…water!! And what better to find it with than a special ‘flashlight.’
And then we have the first sonification of our planet’s massive magnetic field; where we can listen to the beautiful aurora borealis, solar flares hitting the field, and other Gaian electro-magnetic phenomena. And since we are paying attention to the Earth, consider that COP 27 is happening this week, where the health of the planet is under scrutiny.
For the future of power, the race is heating up towards electrification of energy or the use of hydrogen, the most plentiful element in the universe. Much progress is being had in both building better batteries and in the use of hydrogen. A promising trajectory is not just Greeen Hydrogen from solar electrolysis, but now Red Hydrogen, where high temperatures generated by the excess heat of nuclear reactors can cheaply create the gas from water. Wow, enjoy!
