I thought someone might have mentioned this by now, but what about a railgun-assisted scramjet engine?
A scramjet engine only becomes effective at mach 5, which is practically impossible to achieve with traditional jet engines, but well within reach of the mach 8 velocities of these new railguns.
Of course, then you're opening the door for ubercruise missles that go from 0 to mach 25 in a fraction of the time it takes now.(Before they melt, of course.)
My first video game experience was Minestorm on the Vectrex system. Sheer awesom-o vector graphics excellence.
After that it was probably Space Invaders or some such on my Vic-20, followed by Miner 49er and Ghostbusters on my C-64.
I bypassed the original Hero's Quest and dove straight into the original Quest for Glory remake (not the vga v3). That would probably be my first real PC gaming experience.
This isn't a thermoelectric device. It's a thermionic device.
A thermoelectric device, a peltier, uses negatively and positively doped semiconductor junctions. A thermionic device uses negative and positive thermal diodes in a peltier diode formation to achieve a forward bias for heat absorbtion. They replaced the traditional vacuum gap with a silicon wafer.
Thermal diodes have an energy conversion efficency of around 30%, but arranging them using a negative and positive diode formation uses the temperature difference to create a vectorized energy flow through the diode. Both sides of the junction absorb heat as electricity, but electron flow occurs in a uniform direction, making them very efficent at moving heat whether powered or unpowered.
Even if you did get a dimming effect, he's already said that his simulations require massive doses of this material into the atmosphere every year as it precipitates out as acid rain. The majority of it will probably precipitate out on the ice caps, reducing Earth's albedo even further. Darkening the ice caps cause them to absorb more light as heat, speeding their melt. The rest of Earth might cool for a few years, but the entire processor would whiplash back in the opposite direction.
I really don't want to know what's going to happen to the Pacific Ring of Fire, and the rest of Earth's crust, if the mass of several billion tons of water ice were lifted from the Antarctic crust. Earth's crust would probably have to realign to deal with the new mass distribution.
For some reason this article reminded me of the children's story "The Emperor Has No Clothes."
The men in the pictures look quite happy holding nothing in their hands.
On a sidenote:
Has anyone out there ever heard of a flat peltier? A set of junctions designed to spread heat over a surface area rather than just moving it from one side of the traditional peltier device to the other?
I think the only reason people hate DRM-based media is because it really obligates you to pay. No matter what DRM scheme becomes a true standard, the media's prime channel of distribution obligates people to pay.
I know of an independently run DRM-scheme that will let you create whatever version of the track you've purchased you could require..Ogg,.mp3,.wma, etc. There DRM-scheme only exists as an accounting system.
Personally, I don't think it would be that terrible if there were more independent musicians making money. Would raise the level of the music scene as a whole by creating more art and circulating more currency through a larger internet-based virtual economy.
Here's a link to a collection of artists from Newfoundland & Labrador using the same technology.
I think that new data formats will completely revamp the CD while eliminating the CD audio format as a standard.
It's been like 25 years since CD audio came into existence. It's a pretty dated technology.
New companies like Shared Media Licensing http://www.weedshare.com/ are letting artists continue using CDs but changing the distribution channel. Instead of CD Audio, we've got a new distribution format based around computers and the Internet that allow consumers to preview music at a minimum of cost. They can then pick and choose which songs they which to purchase without being forced to pay for an entire album.
This might not seem like much to people who have high speed access and can download the files directly from the artists websites, but as a promotional tool and for consumers still on dialup, this could be a Godsend for artists.
You'd think that someone would be interested in it for reusable vehicles.
I live on a military base in Labrador. We've got an 11,000+ foot runway that was used for low-level jet training. It's also an alternate landing spot for the shuttle.
But right now it's not going to much use.
You think that some corporate power would be interested in developing a reusable VTOL spacecraft.
I think that to make the Internet completely responsible, we'd have to pretty much become it.
There would have to be a paradigm shift in both computing and basic human interactions.
The question is what will our interfaces be like?
I, for one, still enjoy the idea of a simple window of light and a pen.

That's actually what this is... the consumers earn money by trading music.
It was taken from another distribution company MS closed out through software updates to windows media player.

The Synchronicity System

The Simultaneity System
Or some combination of those words.
This is starting to get closer to a real "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" kind of technology.
I'm waiting for them to redesign it as a proper book before I get too interested.

The used a N and P type thermal diode to create a forward bias for thermal absorbtion by arranging them in a traditional peltier diode formation.
This idea is pure bullshit.
It's so bad it's almost eco-terrorism.

Actually, I heard Buddy Jesus gave DRM the thumbs up. And Buddha would look just as content with an mp3 player hanging around his neck.
