Part of the PR problem with nuclear is that radioactive materials are so ridiculously easy to detect in infinitesimal amounts – they scream out “here I am, and this is my isotopic makeup!” Somebody better knock this down before it gets twisted by Arnie & friends. I just don’t have ...

It could be used to make children obey adults’ commands: if they don’t, they can be warned, Alpha and Gamma will enter their heads and make them go up to be killed by St 90. I gave R-747 her story back today and suggested my alternative version. She agreed that mine probably ...
For though they can endure the most extreme conditions of cold and hardship, they have one hidden weakness in their makeup that would render them vulnerable to extermination by anyone who knew it. " 'So I am going to destroy them and try again, in order to develop a different mutant of...
They vary in makeup from firm Imperial allies, through other major powers that are at least reliable (say, the Consolidated Waserai Echelons) down through a motley collection of malcontents and rogue states. So what are the resulting security concerns? Hot war with the Republic. Hot war ...
"It was up there a full thousandth of a second. Why did you get only the left hand side of the group?" "That's all the farther I had read." "Look at all of it. Don't make an effort of will; just look at it." She flashed another number. Joe's memory was naturally good; ...
Strapped-down systems may be necessary for use in a possible back-up mode. Such a system would use combinations of body-mounted gyros, accelerometers, horizon sensors, and star, sun and planet trackers. Onboard Operation Error Model An important part of a study of interplanetary guidance requiri...
Just as the 3 dimensions of space together with time make up a 4-dimensional spacetime, the 3 components of momentum together with energy make up a 4-dimensional momentum-energy tensor. Thus, conservation of momentum and energy are not separate laws. Conservation of momentum-energy is one law...
Which will of course make them very cramped. But don't make them too cramped or the crew will start suffering psychotic breaks and go berserk. CRAMMED IN THE GAPS HMS Polyphemus (1881) click for larger image Whenever I think of space warships, I end up thinking about early destroyers and...
Scientists used a combination of advanced microscopy and chemical detection techniques to uncover the structural makeup of human tooth enamel at unprecedented atomic resolution, revealing lattice patterns and unexpected irregularities. The findings could
