I’ve worked in and supported scientific research at NASA and the University of Maryland. I’m very interested in climate change, String Theory, and virus research. With Earthwatch I’ve helped scientists around the world with their research in biology, the environment, and climate change. I have a Ph.D. from the University of Maryland

1·1 year agoThe idea is the same as an EV, with the plutonium continuously charging a super battery that runs the car.
You’re right - the cost has to come down. That happened during the PC development, and we need similar tech geniuses for this.
Plutonium-238 can’t be made into a bomb, but any radioactive material is decently dangerous. Where are those tech geniuses?
Got a better idea? The climate won’t wait.

I think it’s basically the same, but you gotta get the mechanical energy from somewhere and I suggest this plutonium isotope is the place.@arxiv_physics @physics@lemmy.ml @LHCbPhysics @Dianna @physics@scipost.social #physics

I was looking towards tech geniuses to solve the power problem. Solar is a nice idea but with so many cars not hardly ever in the sun, I doubt it would be the option of choice.
