Westinghouse Corporation's new "eVinci" microreactors don't need water.

Microreactors or micro nuclear reactors are the next-generation tools for power supply. Many of those systems are planned to be portable, and portable nuclear reactors called "PoNu" can offer non-centralized power supply solutions for temporary or static use. The operators can connect microreactors into series or in lines. And that makes those small nuclear power plants give very high power.

Portable nuclear reactors can give very flexible solutions for many things. In some models, the portable nuclear reactor can give electricity to the truck that transports it to a ship or aircraft. Then that reactor can connect to the ship's or aircraft's electric systems. And it can give power to that. The same system can deliver energy to the area where it is transported.

TRISO (TRi-structural ISOtropic particle fuel). fuel pellets cannot melt even at high temperatures. That makes those fuel pellets a very useful and safe way to create nuclear power. Shutting down TRISO reactors is easy. In some versions, there are two or more different sizes of pellets. And when some anomaly in operations happens, the hatch will open at the bottom of the reactor. There is a net that lets smaller pellets travel through it. That separates the fuel into 2 or more different chambers.

The water supply has been a critical part of the use of microreactors in ground vehicles, ships, and aircraft. Normal nuclear reactors require water for cooling systems and power transfer. The nuclear reactor transfers its thermal energy to water that rotates turbines and generators. But another way to take electric power from reactors is to benefit the beta radiation (electrons) that the reactor sends.

Westinghouse's "eVinci" reactor uses some kind of cooling pipes that transport thermal energy out from the reactor. The liquid gas or even fast-moving air or ion flow that travels through the tubes that travel through fissile material can increase the cooling power. That is a suitable solution if the tubes themselves cannot stop the temperature rise in that reactor.

Another thing is how to replace water in the cooling system. One of the systems that can make this thing is the gas-flow, laser- or ion-based thermal pump that sends radiation through the nuclear element or fissile material. That kind of thermal pump transports thermal energy out of the reactor. In that version, the aimed pressure impulses, acoustic beams, or laser and ion beams that travel through the hole in the middle of the reactor can transport thermal energy out from it. The laser ray can also ionize air and make the eruption channel for electrons.

And that could explain the mystery rays below some UAPs.

Some eyewitnesses report. That they saw some kind of laser ray. Below those things. There is a theory that the mystery beam is the thermal pump that should keep the reactor's temperature low. We all know that microreactors also can used in rockets. And those kinds of systems are powerful tools for nuclear thermal rockets like NERVA (Nuclear Engine for Rocket Vehicle Application) systems.

But laser beam accelerated electrons and ions will give those systems higher speed. The photon-accelerated ions and electrons have very high speed, and the small nuclear reactor can also operate as the source for helium ions (Alpha particles) and electrons (Beta particles). The speed of those particles that travel out from the engine can rise even closer to the speed of light.

Use virtual "perpetual motion machines" and seawater as energy sources.

Use virtual "perpetual motion machines" and seawater as energy sources. The Archimedean screw can offer almost endless energy sources. "Robert Fludd's 1618 "water screw" perpetual motion machine from a 1660 wood engraving. It is widely credited as the first attempt to describe such a device." (Wikipedia/Perpetual motion) The term "virtual perpetual motion machine" means a machine. That pulls water to the upper tank using a capillary tube. Then that water will fall through the generator or turbine wheel. The machine uses differences in pressure levels. But it looks like a "perpetual motion machine", that is impossible because of laws of thermodynamics. The machine uses differences in pressure levels. But it looks like a " real perpetual motion machine", which is impossible because of the laws of thermodynamics. The real perpetual motion machines don't use outside energy. And that's why they are not possible....

Will humans survive the sun's red giant stage?

"As the Sun matures into a Red Giant, the oceans will boil and Earth will become uninhabitable." (The Conversation, The sun won’t die for 5 billion years, so why do humans have only 1 billion years left on Earth?) Sooner or later, all stars use their hydrogen. And then they turn into red giants. Sun is a yellow G spectral class star that turns into a white dwarf. But before that, the sun will turn larger. The sun turns red and that means. It starts to send more infrared radiation. This thing will turn Earth into a hellish temperature that vaporizes water from Earth. It's possible. That Earth will also vaporize with Venus and Mercury. Some scientists say that we have only 1 billion years to move farther in the solar system. The habitable zone will go to the distance of Jupiter and Saturn, and maybe humans find a safe place in those distant moons. It's possible that before Sun will grow too large humans make large groups of mirror satellites or large shields that sho...

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field. An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate. AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru...
