Remember that superconducting property that appeared in graphene when two layers were placed at a 'magic angle'?
The effect was recreated in a three-layer stack of graphene, and the effect is even stronger.
Still only works at <3 Kelvin though.

Gigantic poster showing how the Super Phenix breeder reactor worker. It produced 1.24 GW in its liquid sodium core, but also converted nuclear waste into fresh plutonium.
Seems to be by 'Dick Ellis' for Nuclear Engineering international.

I wish we get to see @BigelowSpace's inflatable module designs given new life.

Lightweight, compact in storage but expand to huge volumes, and they mesh perfectly with desires for private/commercial space stations in easier-to-reach orbits.

A uniquely designed spaceship from Daemoria, posted to the ToughSF Discord server.
The nose is armored with different anti kinetic/laser sections, and the radiators are kept narrow to stay protected from radiation and exhaust plasma from the Orion pusher plate.

This is the SMX-25, DCNS's futuristic non-nuclear hybrid craft that can travel quickly on the surface like a frigate, then dive near the target to use Air-Independent Propulsion like the stealthiest submarines. <3000 tons, 10kts dive, 38kts surfaced.

There a funny trope in science fiction, where entire planets are dedicated to a single function in service of a larger collective.
@nyrath has a page on it:

It might betray a lack of research into how economies and supply chains work.

Free-floating debris, microgravity and vacuum.
Scavenging for salvage in space is probably going to be a very dangerous task.

Very interesting figures on photosynthesis efficiency here: https://t.co/iRIKwK61fC
C4 plants like corn are 6% efficient, and this doesn't change with temperature. C3 plants like rice suffer massively in hot weather, but find a 10%+ efficiency niche at high CO2 and low temps...

Orbiting over Planet Viridian.
