Femto Reactors - Home Based Nuclear Energy

Imagine a reactor unit, fully contained, no larger than a Mac Mini M4 Pro. With a home grid connection to a smart meter and bi directional charging point with a feed in tariff for V2X applications, using a vehicle or home battery store.

Specified for just 1kW continuous output. And for each unit to last 10 years before mandatory return to factory for reprocessing.

This would require between 5g and 10g of uranium fuel per unit, if using the rankine or stirling cycles for example. It may have to use different thermodynamics in the final design. Whatever is used the device will be continuously trying to get rid up up to 3kW of heat at 30% efficiency.

Innovation would be delivered by development of a better heat exchanger and efficiency. Ideal innovation would be the invention of a fundamentally new way of converting the fission reaction energy, or whatever may be, to power output, preferably electricity.

Making it modular means it can be stacked for differing sizes of homes and commercial properties. There are only practical limits to this due to space available.

For now, put down any hysteria about safety or waste. This program is asking - if these concerns were fully mitigated, would you be willing to support the idea, all else being equal.

If not the show is over obviously for political reasons. For example, wind and solar are now huge in sun free and wind challenged nations. So it can be done if the will is there and the state forces it onto the people.

Clearly radiation hysteria and the euphemism we call nuclear waste are not really limiting factors.

Mr. Musk, please put Mars Base on hold, great though that goal is. And deliver this system as soon as possible.

* Note - the term 'femto' comes from scientific notation in standard SI prefixes, in this case, one quadrillionth of something. Or 10e-15. And the term pico which we would have preferred is already used up for generation of electricity of up to several megawatts and we're proposing several kilowatts, 3 orders down.

PETITION: Government to indicate countries of the UK are open to accede to the US

Sign the Petition A Dialogue on the UK's Accession to the United States Executive Summary This initiative seeks to foster a formal dialogue regarding the potential accession of the countries of the United Kingdom , to the United States , as individual states. Simply put, this petition is asking the government to start a conversation about the benefits of leaving the UK and joining the United States. The objective is to evaluate the benefits to citizens and stakeholders, encouraging a constructive discourse on the political, economic, and social implications of such a union. If Wales , Northern Ireland , Scotland , or England were to leave the United Kingdom, it would end their system of constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy . Instead, if they joined the United States as separate states, they would govern themselves under the U.S. federal system while receiving its protection. This proposal recognises that immediate change is unlikely but urges a serious con...

Who Said There Was Anything Wrong With a Worldview?

Who Said There Was Anything Wrong With a Worldview? I didn't. But it's when I believe my worldview, is truth, that I become violent without realising it. This is extremely hard for people to accept as possible. The resistance to seeing it and the temptation to escape from looking, is built into its foundations. So, I never said worldviews are bad for us. I did say that when I believe my worldview is a fact, then "I" become root cause of the worlds problems. Thought creates an image of the world. Then thought worships the image that thought created. I am scared of death. So I create an existential worldview about immortality - an image. This can be a God, a political ideology, scientific religiosity, atheism, planet saving activism, anything which my fear of death can hide behind. So if I do 'good' through this image I created, I will ultimately get a 'seat on the right hand side of God' , or whatever the image I created has defined as heaven. Then I w...

Facing Draco, Mining Dorado

This is a proposal to show how the 18.6 year real estate cycle is a hang over from times where the mechanics of the lunar month were used by high priests of the time to forecast ancient agricultural cycles - what we would today call a business cycle culminating in a financial crisis or a great recession. The 18.6 year period is governed by the intersection of lunar and solar eclipses. It is known scientifically as the Saros Cycle. Where all 3 harmonics of the orbit of the moon coincide once every 18.6 years. The ancient scholars knew this. And the politicians of the time used it to signal the day when the economy would be deliberately reset by fiat. This reset was necessary because this period was about how long the people of nations could abuse the economy before it was too late to recover on its own and much worse effects would have emerged. So it was the wisdom of the leadership of the time. As the aeons went by, the meaning and rationale of this policy became normalised - people an...
