My understanding, reading this, is that it is the pressure that holds it in place. The bolts just keep is from sliding off. The doors are very heavy, the pressure keeps them in place in only one direction. Without the bolts, only friction f

I love it, but don't you think we'll need to pipe the trace amounts of O2 to burn the yellow H2 with?

Who said anything about fusion? Fusion's ridiculous. Fission too. My point is that even if we, the humans of the 21st century, can run out of He, the Earth can't. Even us humans can't run out of it - we'll boil off the a

I was taking a jab at people who, a few days ago, were arguing that H2 is just as safe or safer than gasoline. I'm scared of gasoline, and petrified of H2. But our project needs H2

NYC is popular for the people who make a rich community with diverse things to see, do, talk, eat, etc. Aside from some Art Deco here and there (looking at you Chrysler building, you sexy you!), the actual city is hideous.

He is not renewable, but is self generating through every alpha emitting mineral in the Earth slipping through cracks until trapped in a gas chamber. And there's a lot of alpha emitting nuclei on Earth.

His point is that more of it floats away naturally or as a result of CH4 extraction than we care to collect primarily because its not economically viable to collect. Party balloons is not what's causing Earth's He to go where no m

A few days ago some people on this forum were arguing that H2 is safe, just has an unfair reputation, and is a suitable replacement for gasoline. Well, is safety's not a concern, then for many applications H2 is a suitable or superior

We did try it. Mistakes were made, perhaps. But we did try it and it devastated the African American community. Somehow people don't want to live in concrete jungle. The ugliness of grey cement destroys our own sense of self worth. You

Are teslas and other EVs rated at 430 mpg equivalent? Because Ive worked at the DOE, as a scientist, researching green, sustainable, fuels. I know my thermo and my grid. I guarantee you that that number is BS

The point is that, as scary as gasoline is, the explosive mixture is quite narrow compared to H2. Add in a minuscule spark energy and H2 is no joke
