Nuclear Fusion 97 - Acceleron Fusion Researching Low Temperature Muon Catalyzed Fusion

      As global energy rises, both public institutions and private companies have increased their efforts toward nuclear fusion. Acceleron Fusion is a start-up working on muon-catalyzed fusion energy. The fusion energy firm has recently secured twenty-four million dollars in funding to develop a revolutionary approach to clean energy production.

Nuclear Fusion 96 - Pacific Fusion Researching Unique Design For Fusion Reactor

     Nuclear fission reactors already provide air-pollution-free power from 54 plants in 28 states. The locations account for just more than eighteen percent of the electricity generation in the U.S. However, the plants produce long-lasting radioactive waste. Rare and well-publicized meltdowns are also possible in nuclear fission reactors, but they are rare.

Propulsion - Ad Astra Rocket Company And Space Nuclear Power Corporation Collaborating On Nuclear Electric Propulsion

     The Ad Astra Rocket Company (Ad Astra) and The Space Nuclear Power Corporation (SpaceNukes) have just signed a strategic partnership to advance high-power Nuclear Electric Propulsion (NEP) technology to enable fast and reliable human and robotic missions to Mars and beyond. This alliance builds on

Spacecraft - National Natural Science Foundation of China Is Working On An Ultra Large Spaceship

     China is working on a spacecraft so massive that it will be more than half a mile in length. This “Ultra-Large” ship is expected to cost millions of dollars and it will revolutionize the way humanity travels across space. The scale of this project is mind-boggling and its implications for the space industry are immense.

Weapons - Chinese Scientists Create Beam Weapon That Focuses Microwaves From Multiple Transmitters On To One Spot

     China is working on a new satellite-wrecking Death Star-like microwave weapon. Chinese scientists have reportedly developed a multi-beam converging microwave weapon. The new weapon is designed to combine several beams in one location with ultra-precise timing. This weapon could be used to target a single object with its multiple beams.

Spacecraft - U.S. Space Force X-37B Finishes Seventh Mission - Part 1 of 2 Parts

Part 1 of 2 Parts
     The U.S. Space Force said Thursday that after more than nine months in an unusual, highly elliptical orbit, the U.S. military's X-37B spaceplane will soon begin dipping its wings into Earth's atmosphere to lower its altitude before coming back to Earth for a runway landing. The X-37B is also called the Orbital Test Vehicle
