    A new chapter has been added about non-thermal energy generation.

    You will, of course, ignore this, even though it is the sort of thing we are supposedly seeking. Instead you will continue with your stupid hot fusion experiments, etc.

  2. Are hacks of U.S. water facilities a new front in the Iran war?

    While the hackers failed to compromise the water supply, they succeeded in inspiring headlines and provoking uncertainty. And the scope, scale and real-world impacts of the attacks have been remarkable even to the experts.

  4. #Kansas town is getting an underground #nuclear reactor [whether they like it or not!]

    Story by Jessie Williams, July 29, 2026

    "A pilot project to bury a #NuclearReactor one mile underneath a town in Kansas has split the opinion of local residents, with some fearing the #EnvironmentalImpacts while others hope it will create economic opportunities.

    "The so-called #GravityReactor is being proposed by #DeepFission, a California-based start-up from a father-daughter duo, #LizMuller and #RichardMuller, emeritus professor of physics at University of California, and an inventor.

    "It will be the first time a commercial nuclear reactor operates underground.

    "The startup has raised around $150 million in the past year, with $40 million of that going to fund the work in #ParsonsKS, a rural town in Kansas with a population of 9,600.

    "So far Deep Fission has drilled one test hole with a second due to be completed this year, and a full-scale prototype canister intended to test installation procedures.

    "Their plan is to send the canister loaded with nuclear fuel into a third hole to heat water a mile underground and generate electricity on the surface in 2027 or 2028.

    "But some people in Parsons are worried about the short time frame by industry standards and the impact on the #environment and their #WaterSupply.

    "Each reactor would generate 15 megawatts of electricity from inside a 30-inch borehole, enough to power 12,000 homes. But Muller wants 100 or more reactors, providing more than a gigawatt – which would be enough for a #datacentre.

    "The design relies on established pressurised water reactor technology, but with the reactor one mile underground, Deep Fission says it could remove some of the most expensive parts of conventional #NuclearPlants, as rock and water pressure could replace some costly #safety structures, such as #cooling and #containment.

    "Nuclear only generates about a fifth of US electricity, but the Trump administration is seeking to kickstart a '#NuclearRenaissance,' aiming to quadruple America’s nuclear-power generation by 2050. It comes amid skyrocketing demand for electricity, mainly driven by data centres for AI."

  10. Air well (condenser) (Hydrology 💧)

    An air well or aerial well is a structure or device that collects water by promoting the condensation of moisture from air. Designs for air wells are many and varied, but the simplest designs are completely passive, require no external energy source and have few, if any, moving parts. Three principal designs are used for...
