Atom and electron interferometers are cheap, so gravity nodes are a thousand times smaller and cheaper

Beyond the Observable Universe at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mty0srmLhTk Infinite, pre-existing universe with a “local” big bang sized nova. Probably a gluon condensation nova when enough dense material accumulates to exceed the pressure needed to force gluons into compact lattices and structures. We will see more kinds of systems that are small, dark and powerful. If LIGO would

Are State Representatives allowed to have opinions and share them on contemporary USA and global topics?

Richard K Collins All knowledge, All Languages, Building Communities July 12, 2024

Jolanda Jones, I was curious what a State Representative does. At 75, I finally have a little time to look. I tried writing to you on Facebook, but I think no one reads them. Acknowledging is a start. I found your House Bill “Relating to the inclusion of affordable housing as a qualifying project for

Sony Starvis and IMX715 and thermal small pixel methods

Richard K Collins All knowledge, All Languages, All Sky Cameras July 7, 2024

I came across a ZWO ASI715MC recently and bought one to check out. But they are NOT into machine vision or security, since their chosen market is astronomers. Over the years I see Sony doing innovative things, but finding a stable development environment is difficult. Perhaps working directly with Sony would be more productive, fundamental

ElectoBoom: Making a Water Railgun at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qy81O7LrB84 1 cubic centimeter of water is 1 gram = 1E-3 Kg. Add 1 Watt Second = 1 Joule of energy. (1/2) * m * v^2 = Joules Velocity_meterspersecond^2 = 2*Joules/Kilograms Velocity_MetersPerSecond = sqrt(2*Joules/Kilograms) sqrt(2*(1 Joule)/1E-3 kilogram) = sqrt(2000 Joules/kg) = 44.7213595 (m/s) = 100.0388320956 Miles per Hour Note:

What do State Representatives get paid to do? Does anyone hold them globally accountable?

Richard K Collins All knowledge, All Languages, Global Open Resources July 4, 2024

Tomorrow We Vote: What Do State Representatives Actually Do? – TWV University (Lesson 2) at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRqe9cyxIDI It would be a lot of work, but I think it would be a good exercise in government to ask “What do the State Representatives of all States in the United States do? What are they paid to do?

Broader view of nuclear energy applications by energy density

Richard K Collins All knowledge, All Languages, Process Monitoring and Control, Solar System Colonization July 2, 2024

S3: The future of Nuclear = Small, Mobile, Microreactors, Radiant at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LTgS7tOOzsE This reminds me of Elon Musk – low tech (graphite, heat, coolants, everyday materials) rather than fields and high energy density. At least the people are able to do those things now. Remote chemical processes can be economic with mostly heat, not electricity.

Live thermal cameras of natural scenes for research and sharing

Richard K Collins All knowledge, All Languages July 1, 2024

I am not sure who is working on https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmhSWP9M_zI but with higher temperatures, the image is often saturated, showing little detail. If you were to put a computer between the camera and streaming, it can monitor the range of pixel values, and remap the colors to be more informative. That can be done using browser Javascript,

You need to create entirely new fields, then no glass/class ceilings.

Richard K Collins All knowledge, All Languages June 28, 2024

Happy Researchers @hapyresearchers Unpopular opinion: Every year number of PhD admissions are increasing. But, the funny thing is academic positions to absorb these PhDs are comparatively reducing or kept vacant or given to someone who is close to 70 yrs. Replying to @hapyresearchers You need to create entirely new fields, then no glass/class ceilings. It
