The #FireStar Drive begins a fusion process by adding #boron into the thruster exhaust. The base thruster generates high-speed protons through the ionization of water vapor. These protons collide with the nucleus of a boron atom, which starts the fusion reaction. The technique produced ionizing radiation and increased the base propulsion unit’s thrust by 50% 📈 interestingengineering.com/spa

Interesting Engineering · World’s 1st nuclear fusion-powered electric propulsion drive unveiled - Interesting EngineeringRocketStar Inc. has showcased its advanced nuclear-based propulsion technology called the FireStar Drive. 

One of the best seasonal vegetables to introduce to your children as early as possible in their lives - well, as soon as they have teeth, as teeth are needed to strip the luscious flesh from the tough central stem.
Nutritionally rich in #potassium, #manganese, #calcium, #silicon, #boron, #iodine, and #vitC, this sea-baptised plant can be lightly boiled & served with butter or pickled for an intriguingly tangy treat.
**** Who can guess which plant I'm describing? ****

Abandoned Place: Ruins of the Air Research Hydrogen Research station near Boron, California. This was part of the the USAF Project Suntan which was trying to develop the Lockheed CL-400, a Mach 3 hydrogen powered spy plane. The program was canceled in 1958 and the more conventional A-12 / SR-71was developed. In one shot you can see the rust rings of what was most likely hydrogen dewars #aviation #AvGeek #abandoned #abandonedplaces #ProjectSuntan #Boron #hydrogen @AbandonedAmerica
