This week we delve a bit into personal electric yard work machines, our fav being The Chipper. And in space, the Chinese Martian Rover, Zhurong, in good health, has it’s mission extended, looking now for water on the desert planet. The Japanese space folks, meanwhile, have been testing a promising new type of rocket engine that could vastly extend the range of space ships, something called an ‘RDE’, a Rotating Detonation Engine, a kind of a Wankel engine for space! And here in California we may soon have the power to run Doc Brown’s Delorean Time Machine, thanks to Lawrence Livermore Labs and their success in generating 10 quadtrillion watts of power with their experimental fusion reactor. Not ready for primetime but getting there!
