-(Natural News) It may sound like something you only see in science fiction, but experts say we may be just a few years away from “talking lasers” that have the power to beam messages right into our heads. A military initiative known as the Joint Non-Lethal Weapons Directorate is working on laser weapons that are […]

-(Natural News) Whenever there is solar activity, scientists check to see when the sun will change its “mood” from calm to sudden bursts of activity, which they believe can lead to significant events of space weather. Therefore, they deem it important to predict when these “stellar tantrums” will happen. The sun exhibits high levels of […]

-(Natural News) A team of scientists from Princeton University have developed a new code that gives artificial intelligence the capability of developing virtually limitless nuclear fusion energy. The new code, the Fusion Recurrent Neural Network (FRNN), applies deep learning to a pair of comprehensive databases at the world’s largest nuclear energy facilities. These facilities contain […]

-(Natural News) Some teenagers listen to music; some take up a sport that they like; some even spend their time glued to social media and video games – and some, like 14-year-old Jackson Oswalt, build a working nuclear reactor in his family’s spare room. Jackson, a shy teenager from Memphis, is the youngest person to […]

-(Natural News) Ohio-based researchers reported the successful revival of an old way of producing the very useful compound ammonia. They used a plasma-based electrolytic reaction to create ammonia from nitrogen and water. Furthermore, they did not need to use any hydrogen or solid metal catalysts. Ammonia was first synthesized in the early 20th century. Nowadays, it is used to make fertilizer and numerous […]

-(Natural News) One of the biggest issues when it comes to designing practical fusion power plants is finding a safe and efficient way to cool it down. MIT researchers have proposed using high-temperature superconducting magnets to expel dangerous heat from the reactor, an article in Science Daily stated. Their design features a compact fusion reactor […]

-(Natural News) There may be a solution to the occasional sawtooth swings that occasionally disrupt the power output of current thermonuclear fusion reactors. In an article in News Wise, researchers were able to create detailed simulations of magnetic flux pumping, a process that can maintain the stability of plasma despite disruptive external effects. A sawtooth […]

-(Natural News) Did you know that Saturn “croons” to one of its many moons? And that the moon in question, Enceladus, “sings” back? Now you can listen to their cosmic duet thanks to a recently-released conversion of the plasma oscillations between them, an article in Live Science reported. By September 2017, the Cassini space probe […]

-(Natural News) Researchers from around the world have come to the university town of Greifswald, Germany to run tests on one of the biggest and most complex fusion reactors ever built. Their latest experiment campaign could help speed up the predicted timetable for practical fusion power, an article in Science Daily stated. The Wendelstein 7-X […]

-(Natural News) Despite its highly-advanced and powerful arsenal, the U.S. military has a non-lethal weapons research division that is always looking for new and innovative ways to subdue the state’s enemies. Now online reports have revealed that the agency expects to be able to use one interesting new weapon within the next three years: lasers […]
