- NASA Scientists recently discovered a way to conduct Fusion that bears some resemblance to the Cold Fusion Experiments of 1989. Is this the real thing, or another hoax?

Hi there
I have some issues with what was said (mainly at the beginning, the rest was - to my knowledge - correct):
Alpha Centauri is 4.3 light-years or 40 trillion kilometers apart from us. So unless you have found a way to go faster than light (which we cannot at the moment & have no idea how) you will nead at least 4.3 years to arrive in Alpha Centauri. Problem here: you still need light-speed, which too is as of yet impossible to reach, as the energy-requirement is simply absurd because of expomential growth...
But it is true, that atomic energy IS the big future for our civilisation be it fission or fusion.
Hey, this is a good question. You correctly identified the issue. But only on a first level analysis.
If you dig deeper, then you’ll realise that time slows down for any object travelling near the speed of light.
So a clock on that SR-71 will slow down. And so will the biological processes of anyone on it.
So when they reach their destination, it’ll seem like only a year has passed.
On Earth, however, 5 years will have passed. Which is why I included that tidbit :)
But Spock's sister said it so it must be true!
Half of light speed would be good enough :-)
You should check out Isaac Arthur here on CZcams
@@TechforLudditesSira on that note however, the acceleration of the SR71 was given in ms^{-1} instead of ms^{-2}
“The laws of physics have no obligation to conform to our intuition.” So true and far too often ignored.
Meh. We assume we cannot do too much because we assume the laws of physics are what we think... I mean I'm certain DARP has crafts (and missiles) that create their own vacuum directly in front of them meaning their speed/acceleration is quite ridiculous.
@@rolandwoltman7835 Your ignoring the evidence which demonstrates you wishful thinking is not what reality based.
@@rickdees251 We can create a vacuum.
It's easily within the laws of physics.
And we have crafts/missiles/drones that can certainly go speeds " we" can't guess at.
There is a reason NASA spends good money working on a warp drive.
Heck, we still act like the speed of light is constant.
It's change is miniscule. Incomprehensibly small.
But if we looked at galaxies as far away as possible... It would show the galaxies moving away faster then our constant light math.
We don't even have physics basics down yet in the dimensions of space we "touch" (mostly).
Human arrogance is adorable.

Very well presented. Clear, specific, and a little tongue in cheek. Optimistic!! I like your style
You do realize, this is an Indian state funded propaganda channel, right?
@@ehm.education read the title again, but slowly this time
Not clear. m/s is not an unit of acceleration, and she says that SR-71 can go with acceleration of 5m/s. 5m/s can be easily achieved by a typical car.
@@obvioustruth Yes acceleration is measure in m/s/s (m/s2).. And although the acceleration is not great, the velocity will increase as follows:
V = U + at where U is the initial velocity and V is the velocity after t seconds.
Assume u = 4000 m/s (14,000 km/h), since an interstellar vehicle would be launched from a near-Earth orbit like a sling-shot. There are about 31.56 million seconds in a year.
Thus V = 4000 + 5* 31,560,000
V= 158 million meters per second.
Since speed of light is 300 million m/s that means at the end of one year the spacecraft would be traveling at half the speed of light.

Thanks 😊
small correction: it is spelled correctly "Bremsstrahlung" with 2xS and the word "Strahlung" already means radiation
Exactly. It means Braking radiation which is super logical given the context

Amen!
Spot on comment.. I agree...
She won't reveal the cloaking device though.
She's almost a dead ringer for Persis Khambatta, and she opened this waxing philosophical about Voyager I.
Field Tech is needed before interstellar travel. One to contain the reactor, another to deflect space dust from shreding the vessle. And all we have control of in 2020 is magnetic or electrostatic fields. So, a new dicipline is needed first, imho
Only one new discipline? Not shredding the vessel would be good. But how about not cooking the passengers? Collecting fuel en route? Food and supplies for crew? Renewing less pervasive materials lost gradually in transit? Oh, and there's always mental health. I'd say we have work aplenty ahead.
Not even 10 seconds in and I knew this is quality content
Irony? So quality that they use a "quote" with Oppenheimer, which actually was never said by him and is part song lyrics?
Oh my, same!
I absolutely love this channel. Thank you soooo much for all the hard work. The humor and content depth is a perfect balance for entertainment and education.
They may have found a new way of inducing fusion reactions. Whether that may lead to an energy generation device (energy output > energy input) is a different matter. We've seen this over and over for the past 60 years. Nice video, though. I liked it.
People always want to defund N A S A. They forget the jobs they create. And the new technology they bring us
@@johnkulpowich5260 I read nothing about defunding NASA there. Clarify please.

@RockyRacza that’s a bit motivational , thanks :)
Fact is...you're really as smart as you believe and know you are. Frequencies I believe can change everything..
The irony is science (geology) is posited for dumb kids in my experience.
I love that you started uploading regularly!
Such lucid description of the concept ! Keep it going m'am.. This is indeed getting to be my favorite science channel :-)
One concern I have for this is most of the energy in the electron beam is lost to heat (only about 1% of the energy is converted to X-rays) so either a new means of X-ray production that is far more efficient or making the fusion yield extremely high will have to be implemented to make this a viable fusion power source. I don't think that this is as bad as the Pons and Fleischmann cold fusion case because there is evidence that neutrons are being produced with energies characteristic of D-T fusion, but it may take a while to be a net energy producer.
There are a few improvements possible. Classic xray tubes have seen considerable improvement in efficiency with cold cathode technologies. It's not my specialty, so I need to research the cause of losses better, but there's room for improvement over 1% conversion.
Cyclotrons have become fun for this purpose, however, as a far more powerful and ideal source of xrays as cyclotron radiation emitted by electrons being forced to change direction is generally more efficient than what can be produced using xray tubes. Alternatively, someone could try using a free electron laser, although those are generally not considered efficient, I'm also not aware of many attempts to make them efficient... Though that would probably result in a cyclotron tuned to a match of free electron laser emissions and cyclotron emissions along a radius so that most of your beam losses come out as the energy of the frequency you're looking for. Assuming I am remembering correctly that free electron emission is distinct from cyclotron radiation and that the two could be matched in the same beam without obstructing each other.
Also, most power harnessing seems to default to thermal generation and harnessing - and our means of harnessing thermal energy are only about 30-40%. The electric fields and any electrical charges not crucial to sustaining the reaction are better candidates to explore - I would argue as a starting point for developing a fusion process. Start with a fusion reaction that generates these phenomena more primarily than thermal energy and move from there. Ideally, some kind of solid state fusion which occurs almost like some kind of fuel cell catalytic reaction with thermal energy being closer to a reboiler on a gas turbine engine.
Ok, now that energy is _almost_ solved, does someone by any chance have a warp drive or a few star gates lying around? That'd be just _so_ helpful!
The sarcasm in this channel's comments is magnificent.
"She cannae take it Cap'n! She's comin' apart!"😁
@@pseudonayme7717 Scotty!, that you?!

I LOVE the, sort of anthropomorphic analogous way you explain this topic, and can't wait to take in more of your work. 🙏❤️
Fusion is, in my admittedly under-educated opinion, humanity's best hope for survival, both in the distance future, but also the nearer future as well. We need to figure out our energy situation before it's too late. 😬
I look forward to hearing more about these results, and fusion in general.
Cheap fusion energy is what all greedy people want, but it will only lead to more people cutting down more trees faster and cheaper, as well as the depletion of fish in the oceans.
WoW. Hearing your voice I jumped directly to the comment section.

Simply having a new mechanism for fusion, which the research proves, gives a toehold for engineering and optimization that will hopefully lead somewhere useful. I didn't even know about the momentum confinement stuff. Great video.
Ironically Voyager 1 and 2’s radio isotopes were powered by a star that went supernova before our sun was born. 😄
Ah, so they aren't leaving the cradle. At their hearts, the Voyagers are just trying to get home.
since those two spacecraft are powered by rtg's using plutonium (pu 238 if i am not mistaken), and the half life of pu 238 is 87 years then i'm going to say that the fuel on those spacecraft was cooked up in a reactor on earth in the 20th century and not in a star that went nova before our sun was born.

Isn't acceleration measured in m/sec^2
Yes. Such a fundamental mistake kind of ruins the video for me. They fail.
and calling atoms 'molecules' - pfft!
Why yes it is.
Bremsstrahlung already contains the term "radiation" (Strahlung).
Yep, was thinking the same...
Thanks for providing a balanced view without any hype.
One small nitpick: acceleration is measured in meter per second square (m/s^2) not m/s as it is the rate of change of velocity (m/s) per unit time (/s). The 'per seconds' get multiplied in the denominator.
True. Considering the subtle correctness of the colloquial explanations, I was surprised.
If you are on a Microsoft thing you can use Character Map¹ to get superscript numbers and a lot more useful characters, so m/s².

Your presentation of the beauty of science (simple flow of deduced logic) is extremely engaging and refreshing. Thank You for this video. :)
Kudos for hinting at what I suspect is an underappreciated aspect of this new approach. Which may be as an explanation of the odd but rare positive results from some "cold fusion" or Low Energy Nuclear Reactions (LENR) experiments.
The setup was different yet still involved doping electrodes of rare earth metals in much the same way though with non isotopic Hydrogen and titanium rather than deuterium and palladium rods. While this lattice confinement still requires and outside gamma source to initiate a reaction we actually see random gamma rays occasionally raining down from cosmic rays... Possibly just often enough to initiate a reaction in a similair setup yet remain mystifyingly inconsistent, as if there were a critical element only occuring at random like a proverbial bolt from out of the blue.
I was thinking similarly, because I'v always believed it to be possible, just we're not attempting it correctly. The cold fusion experiments were unable to be reproduced reliably, when results came at all. I know as a matter of fact, that electrolyzing water concentrates deuterium levels, and that the nickel, titanium and palladium electrodes will absorb hydrogen in general. That coincidentally makes them rather.... explosive when mishandled if they'v been in service for quite some time, but is besides the point.
So, to summarize the occasional positive results, here's my theory:
Water is electrolyzed in cells for extended periods of time, and only topped up in the cells when low. This causes gradual concentration of deuterium within the remaining water and the electrode structure. Occasionally, a gamma ray or neutron with enough energy to split a deuterium atom comes along. This initiates a successful fusion reaction within the metal electrode structure. There's not a pure enough concentration of deuterium vs hydrogen for the reaction to continue indefinitely, so it's short lived. This results in random, sporadic temperature spikes as claimed to have been observed in the experiments.
Cold fusion has never had independently verified positive results.
@@jfangm Yeah. Yet enough inconsistent results appear including from more reputable groups that keep it from going away. Almost like one or more unrecognized factors are present or absent in a semi random pattern. Ya know, such as with cosmic rays reaching the surface of the planet when someone happens to be running an experiment one day but not the next..
@@johnassal5838
Inconsistent results are evidence that it ISN'T real, not evidence that it could be. If it were real, a stray cosmic ray or two wouldn't affect the results of an experiment. And there is no such thing as a "semi-random pattern" if it's a pattern, it isn't random, and if it's random, it can't be a pattern, there is no in-between.
@@jfangm if you watch the vid or read anything you didn't write you'd see the topic was a possible condensed matter fusion reaction _triggered_ by a burst of energy. This external burst of energy being analogous to _cosmic rays_ and it further being the biggest difference between this setup and the old cold fusion experiments.
Btw, cosmic rays reaching the surface of the Earth are only "semi random" in that the sun itself skews it a little both by its own emissions (making them more common from it's direction) and over time since the varying strength of the solar wind at times reduces the number of interstellar cosmic rays coming into Earths atmosphere. Of course the odds of a cosmic ray intersecting a cold fusion experiment (and functioning *exactly* like the trigger in *this* concept) is just simply random. Does that make you feel better now???
The fact of inconsistent results is *inconsistent* you dullard. Forcing it into any other category doesn't make it anything other than evidence of your own bias. It is also consistent with the effect of one or more unknown or underappreciated elements that you'd be surprised occam's razor doesn't exclude. You seem to think that principle would amount to "the simplest explanation is always best" when it's actually "the simplest explanation that *even accounts for the inconvenient inconsistencies* is best" sparky. Such as the possibility that a previously unaccounted factor like cosmic rays could've been in play.
Had you taken your head out of your own rear end I wouldn't be trying to explain that to you for the third time in three comments.
Tl;dr: The most obvious pattern here is you don't read or reason nearly as well as you think. Also you're a bit of an ignorant prick. Fuqoff.
1:18 Shouldn't the unit of acceleration be m/(s^2), instead of just m/s?
Yeah...long time since we had to use those units and it shows 😓
@@TechforLudditesSira :) sorry for nit-picking, thanks for the video
@@TechforLudditesSira Shouldn't we take the thrust of rocket engines like Electric ion engines or raptor engines for comparing the speed and acceleration in space? Probably not an aircraft. Maybe I'm wrong. Would really like to know.
Well that’s what we wanted to do... but it was too hard to do constant thrust calculations taking into account speed of light, relativistic mass etc 😰
We suck at math it looks like.
@@harryyrrah8543 The thrust would be what she said it was, and note also that she specifically disallowed reference in that comparison to things like oxygen to drive the jets... Other than that, the comparison worked for her purposes.

Thanks for making this video, i wondered what your thoughts would be considering your views on fusion in your other fusion video :)
Love your use of language. Adds enjoyment to the presentation. Nice job.
“The sun will not let us out of its resplendent shadow unless we grow.” Eloquent.
We are sitting on a vast molten metal ball. Last I checked that is energy enough to heat the same water we do with Nuke plants. There is a cave only 1000 feet down a shaft in Mexico with a constant temp over 200 degrees. My guess is that it is even hotter further down. Hell gravity takes the cold water down and physics brings it back as steam to drive electric turbines.
But I want electricity HERE, NOW, in the middle of a thick continental plate with no tectonic activity or geysers for hundreds of kilometres!
but if everybody would start using that source wouldn't in time make the core colder ... therefore less fluid , less mobile and in return we'll have less shielding against radiation ? ... Enjoying cheap energy now so that future generations would enjoy a painful microwave death later ... ?
@@klausklaus9112 thermal energy doesn’t steal heat from the earth’s core. The core of the earth is always slowly cooling off basically letting it’s energy radiate away and with the right tech you can get some energy off that cooling process that will happen no matter what.
Also fun fact by the time the earth’s core will cool completely the sun would be dead.

Also, I really like the name of your channel.
I thought of an energy threshold you missed, the energy of hysteresis, the de-Gaussing energy. For species that use Earth's magnetic field for navigation, the de-Gaussing energy for whatever internal biological magnetic compass they have is important. Humans can use Earth's magnetic field for navigation, but I don't think the majority of people still have the genetics for that ability. But it's far more important for creatures with wings, many of which use Earth's magnetic field for navigation. I've seen an experiment where they stuck 2 identical cell phones in honey bee hives, one turned on and the other turned off. The hive with the phone turned on experienced hive collapse in about a week. The only mechanism that comes to mind is de-Gaussing, but there is nothing scientific about the experiment. Cell phones are pinged by the network, so the phone being pinged would be the most likely explanation for hive collapse. But is it the frequency, the energy level, the ping repetition rate, or even something less obvious like the brand or age of the batteries used? Had a university done the experiment they would have asked and answered not just those questions but a dozen more questions I'm not going to try to think of. It's an important energy threshold that can be damaging, and we appear to have little or no scientific studies on the subject. If you update this video or cover a related topic, could you also cover what frequencies are the most likely to cause de-Gaussing whatever biological magnetic compass various creatures have, or if we even have enough peer reviewed science on the subject to say much at all. Thanks in advance, I enjoy your videos.

@@anydaynow01 well, there are similar crystals to dilithium just that there is no sub space.

Enjoying the quality of your videos. You should tell us more of your background.
Acceleration: a unit m/s2.... Your content is amazing 😍❤️
If you are on a Microsoft thing you can use Character Map¹ to get superscript numbers and a lot more useful characters, so m/s².

@@pattheplanter Got it.... 👍
Nice to meet you. This is a fantastic channel. I love your videos. Heat from the center of the Earth is not from the sun, we have mines here in the United States that are some 2 miles deep where the temperature is over 120 degrees F. That heat, energy, does not emanate from the sun. The tides are not caused by the sun. The moon pulls on the great bodies of water and even on us. All energy does NOT start with the sun, just MOST of it. Even Jupiter puts out more energy than it receives. Some advice from an old scientist, try to never use the terms 'always' and 'never.' There are almost always exceptions and part of being a good scientist is being open to the unknown and being ready to admit you were wrong and open to new discoveries that can dash what you thought you 'knew.' There are very very few laws in science for a reason. Do not be complacent in what you see as proven knowledge.
Hi, nice to meet you too. The tides are somewhat caused by the sun in that the sun keeps the temperature of H20 in a fluid state where it can easily move to and fro. Take away the sun, and the oceans may freeze solid or dry up altogether. Take away the moon and there would still be tidal activity caused by the sun.
Also it took more energy to create/start Jupiter than it currently puts out. 🧐 🤓
Love the whole approach it and wonderfully written. Thank you.
Love the attitude and writing style!
If my understanding is correct, electrons can’t slow down, only move to a specific lower energy state, which results in the emission of the gamma photon. But then again, you have to supply energy to move the electron to a higher energy state in the first place. Idk, quantum physics is hard
EDIT: Nevermind, it was *free flowing* electrons
@@Eljefe003 Gamma rays _are_ photons. Of a significantly higher frequency than visible light. But as I said, I missed the part where it said free-flowing electrons
@@roy04 agreed.
Your videos are absolutely perfect. Don't stop! Keep going. Love the knowledge, presentation style and the witty jokes that make their way in.
I'm personally more hopeful for Thorium molten-salt reactors. Given we've been hearing about fusion forever, and it's never come to fruition. It's quite dissapointing sadly.
Please don't give this guy any more information regarding cold fusion- he is just looking to blow us all up!!!
Exciting possibilities with a superb narration.
Interesting concept. Shall read more into this. It would be awesome if you could do a video about 'asteroid mining' or 'interplanetary economics'
Good seed for new video
If we have details like how Luxembourg is setting up laws for asteroid mining and how Australia mining University is thinking about having course on this etc... Also in space manufacturing is also good tppic
Fascinating topic, I'd love to see more about that! Already enjoyed reading up on it in _Soonish_ by Zach & Kelly Weinersmith.
exciting. now all we need are engineers who can design low-impact point-singular thrusters and we gots Star Wars space ships!!
there is no such thing as darkness, merely the absence of light.
Actually there is no such thing as light- but merely the absence of darkness. ;)
@Non Bel_Eever I concede, your explanation is better :)
I could listen to your voice for the rest of my life!
