There’s an abandoned McDonalds in California that’s stuffed with 48,000 pounds of 70mm tape. These tapes contain never-before-seen ultra-high-res photographs of the moon shot by the Lunar Orbiter project 40 years ago. Rather than ship the film back to Earth, scientists decided to scan them on the spaceship, beam them back losslessly, and then record the data onto magnetic tape. Not wanting to reveal the precision of its spy satellites, the US government decided to mark the images as classified.

Fighter jet flies with 3D printed parts

British fighter jets have flown for the first time with parts made using 3D printing technology.

BAE Systems said the metal components were successfully used on board Tornado aircraft that flew from the defence firm's airfield at Warton, Lancashire, in late December.

The company said its engineers were using 3D technology to design and produce parts that could cut the Royal Air Force's maintenance and service bill by over £1.2m over the next four years.

BAE Systems is working at RAF Marham, Norfolk, to engineer ready-made parts for four squadrons of Tornado GR4 aircraft, including protective covers for cockpit radios and guards for power take-off shafts. Some of the parts cost less than £100.

Mike Murray, head of airframe integration at BAE Systems, said: "You are suddenly not fixed in terms of where you have to manufacture these things. You can manufacture the products at whatever base you want, providing you can get a machine there, which means you can also start to support other platforms such as ships and aircraft carriers.

"And if it's feasible to get machines out on the front line, it also gives improved capability where we wouldn't traditionally have any manufacturing support."

Tesla announces low-cost batteries for homes

Elon Musk
The electric car company Tesla has announced its entry into the energy market, unveiling a suite of low-cost solar batteries for homes, businesses and utilities, “the missing piece”, it said, in the transition to a sustainable energy world.

The batteries, which will retail at $3,500 in the US, were launched on Thursday at a Tesla facility in California by the company’s ambitious founder, Elon Musk, who heralded the technology as “a fundamental transformation [in] how energy is delivered across the earth”.

Wall-mounted, with a sleek design, the lithium-ion batteries are designed to capture and store up to 10kWh of energy from wind or solar panel. The reserves can be drawn on when sunlight is low, during grid outages, or at peak demand times, when electricity costs are highest.

The smallest “Powerwall” is 1.3m by 68cm, small enough to be hung inside a garage on or an outside wall. Up to eight batteries can be “stacked” in a home, Musk said, to applause from investors and journalists at the much-anticipated event.

The batteries will initially be manufactured at the electric car company’s factory in California, but will move production to its planned “gigafactory” in Nevada when it opens in 2017.

The Nevada facility will be the largest producer of lithium-ion batteries in the world, and it is hoped its mass-production scale will help to bring down costs even further.

It is not the only battery storage system on the market, but the Powerwall boasts a relatively high storage capacity, a competitive price, and the heft of investment and excitement generated by Musk’s vision.

The entrepreneur, who helped to invent the online payment system, PayPal, has also founded a private space company, Space X, and is experimenting with a high-speed public transportation system called Hyperloop.

Musk also unveiled a larger “Powerpack”, a 100kWh battery block to help utilities smooth out their supply of wind and solar energy - which is generated intermittently - or to pump energy into the grid when demand soars.

He said on Thursday about two billion Powerpacks could store enough electricity to meet the entire world’s needs. “That may seem like an insane number,” he said. “But this is actually within the power of humanity to do.”
Deutsche Bank estimates sales of battery storage systems for homes and businesses could yield as much as $4.5bn in revenue for Tesla. The energy storage industry is expected to grow to $19bn by 2017, according to research firm IHS CERA.

Tesla is currently taking orders for the systems, with the first units expected to shift in August.

Question:
With the 70th anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing and the kerfuffle over the US/Iran nuclear deal I've been thinking.
Is it 'that' difficult to make a nuke?
reason why I'm saying is that with all of the advances in technology over the 70 years since it was unleashed how can these rouge countries still not have the capability?
is it the process? is it the materials needed?
I'm just intrigued as it seems to be that the whole world has come a long long way over that time but we've still managed to keep it out of the hands of the lunatics. how is that possible?

boz-monaut
09-08-2015, 08:33 PM
everything you need to make a nuke is difficult to obtain, highly controlled and very, very, very expensive

obtaining fissionable material is extraordinarily difficult and then you have to process it in very complicated ways (e.g. separating isotopes of uranium using very complicated centrifuges)

the actual making of the fission bomb is probably the simplest bit - you just need a critical mass, which you get by exploding bits together

making a fusion bomb requires a fission bomb and a whole bunch more complications (and easier to obtain isotopes)

much easier to just steal one from former Soviet republics

Wonder which of the small ladies plays the MFKS role - disputing scientific evidence and the like? :popcorn:

Ze Germans are about to turn on a stellarator they've been working on and hopefully fuse some atoms to some other atoms and make a different kind of atoms and energy

a stellarator is like a tokamak only far more complicated and can hopefully contain plasma for longer

here's some cool gifs

yeah, so about that...

http://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2016/feb/04/csiro-confirms-300-job-cuts-with-climate-research-bearing-the-brunt

"questions about climate change have been answered". who is this dick? yes, cause we totally understand how climate change will affect future extreme weather events. or how we should best manage our agricultural lands to maintain productivity. or how coastal communities should prepare for sea level change.

kutgw Malcolm. only a truly innovative person can see that underfunding of science will lead to innovation!

It won't be easy to earn a living from rugby league once they work out an algorithm to make the robot piss in it's own mouth and root a Labrador.

Apparently Dorrigo just had a 4.2 earthquake, no tsunami warning for the coast.. There's been a heap of tremors preceding it over the past few days..
Is it science? Yeah, nah, don't know..
