Plasma rockets.
The intertubes have been abuzz with discussion for days. By combining a new rocket technology with a gravitational slingshot effect, NASA can get future Mars missions cut to weeks instead of months in flight time.Osborne has the vids. Dude. Plasma rockets and gravity slingshots.
The new missile is called a plasma rocket. Welcome to Star Trek. The engine is called VASIMR, which sounds like a Russian code name.
Ladies of the world, I remind you again that there are men who find math and science to be incredibly hot.
That is all. (Also, plasma rocket.)
EPIC WIN.
I still have not played Civ IV because III was SUCH a time vampire. But yes.
ReplyDeleteI need to play Civ 3 again. Want to play Civ 4, but it doesn't work well with my computer.
ReplyDeleteThat said, this is fucking awesome.
