Hang in there--remember most of the techies on FR are probably either off at work or in class Yeah, I know. I was just bumping it a little. Kind of reminds me when a Freeper posted that he was going to change his screen name to Death of Threads because every time he posted that ended it. Got a grin from that one. I'll give it a rest and check back in several hours. Just thought the timing was good considering they just announced a selection on nuclear waste storage. Hey, you never answered my question about your screen name.

This would probably work for a nuclear propulsion system. It looks like we would have to develop a reactor designed to create the Am242m from some kind of process involving plutonium. It would costs billions to develop, but nothing beyond our capabilities. I don't think NASA will develop it though. They're too easily spooked by the greens. We could've had gas-core nuclear propulsion by now if they had any vision and/or b*lls.
