Here's another example of fusion energy.This one is perfectly ecological.

1/1H + 11/5B->3 4/2He + energy.

It's extremely clean and safe, because there are no radioactive atom cores in this process no free neutrons which can induce radioactivity if they hit atom cores.

But, it takes very high temperature to begin this proces.I mean VERY HIGH

There's also a process called COLD FUSSION which can solve the problem of high temperatures in fussion process' by using some catalysators which can reduce distance between atom cores.Some elementary particles have the possibility of being a catalysator in such reaction(like mions).

I don't even know how they escape a planets gravity in Star Trek...

They are probably using anti gravity devices or those "space elevators", or just beam things to ship

As you probably know the Navy has nuclear power submarines and aircraft-carriers.

yes, I actually visited one. Aircraft Carrier Dwidght D Eisenhower.Too bad it wasn't the Enterprise

I've beem thinking alot about nuclear power recently.I think the fussion would do great.They are much safer then fission.Are there any fussion reactors today? I know I read about some being tested experimentally, but I can't really remember.How much energy is possible to gain from a fussion proces?

Also, nucler power is great, but it will still take a looonnng time to get to other stars at slower-than-light speeds. I think for inter-stellar travel we really need FTL (faster-than-light) travel. Whether we use wormholes, warp drive, space folders, spatial transducer, or something else, we need FTL.

I agree we need FTL travel.But Einstein said it's not posssible didn't he? It would take a really enourmous amount of energy to move anything(except it's without mass) close to speed of light.And there's also problem about time and forces during acceleration( we would need artificial gravity).....the list is almost endless

Yes, some frogs and other amphibians can do that, but, last time I checked, there is NO evidence of that happening in humans

True.I just wanted to say two MALES (not human males) can do it.

I voted for classic rock, although I listen to blues ,classsical and jazz muzic alot Favourite groups: Deep Purple, AC/DC, LYNYRD SKYNYRD,THIN LIZZY...

Answering: Send myself a private message (do not answer here)!

Sorry, did not see it when i first read it.

What do you think? Are we going to see human race traveling between the stars, or maybe our children will.Or maybe we'll never be able to do it.I think if we boost the space industry, we might be able to do it in about 50 years.But we must get rid of the silly rockets, they are not suitable for space travelling. They cost too much, and give too little. And the solar sailing seems to be slower then we would need. Those solar sails should be really enourmous. So what's left?

Two males Abolutely Cannot reproduce by themselves, AIDS or no AIDS!!!

Actually, some african frogs can change their gender if they are living in single gender environment.So if two males would be left alone in a limited area(like cage)one of them would surely change his gender.

I think that was the name of the episode in which enterprise encountered the Borg. In which episode does the borg apears again?

it would be quite troubling if some of the space tourists would die.It would bring bad publicity to space tourism and eventually all would be lost.I think we're not yet ready for the "real" space tourism...But,nevertheless,if they would offer it,I would take it

I'm a new member here and naturally a big star trek fan.That's all from me for now,because I'm currently quite buisy working on my theory of chaos article for the school, but I'll drop later. It's nice to see so many Trekies on one place.Trek on!

P.S. I've seem some people here interested in physics and mathematics. Does anyone know where could i find some graphs of atractors and fractals?Thanks in advance
