New AeroSpace craft Propulsion

[SUBS17]

No.

 

 

 

No. The half-life of plutonium (Pu-238 ) is approximately 88 years (source). Regardless on how we interpret your nonsensical term "52 Trillion zeros in years" (either 52 trillion years, or 52*10^100000000000), 88 is less. If you start out with 1 kg of Pu-238 you will have 500g after 88 years. And 250g after 176 years. After 875 years, there will be 1g left.

 

 

Sorry to say so, but youtube university and a 100% reality-free diet will not get you the Nobel Prize in Physics.

 

Plutonium does not become inert of radiation after 88 years, you have got to be kidding.:lol:

Plutonium continues to produce 4000+ degrees C up to 52 Trillion zeros in years, so it is very handy for this purpose. Even 88 years is still very good for a source of heat of that temperature but again it last much, much, much longer than 88 years. Your maths is so wrong lol, plutonium is very, very hot and radioactive!

and the troll-fest continues, I see.

Did you not even read what drPhibes wrote?

Nowhere in his post does he say Plutonium becomes inert after 88 years. Nothing close as a matter of fact.

 

Also, where are you getting the figure of Plutonium outputting 4000 degrees C in heat? It melts at ~640 degrees C.

[MiG21bisFishbedL]

 

Pretty certain that's not how a half-life works. There's nothing "inert" in 88 years, it's still very much radioactive.

Prayers and fairy dust keeps it from melting. Don't you know anything about nuclear physics?

It works on a decay process but the end result is that 52 trillion years is how long Plutonium takes to make completely decontaminated of radiation. So as a heat source it is good so long as radiation is bottled up.

Plutonium's half-life is not those 52 trillion years....cmon and come with something we can work with.

 

First, specify wich Isotope you refer to, they differ greatly in half life.

 

some of Pu's Isotopes HL:

Pu-239 has 24.110 years HL

Pu-244 has 80 million years HL

Pu-238 has 87,74 years HL

 

Only Pu-238 would qualify for your purpose, with a HL of 87,74 years, a man's life span.

 

 

LoL

 

Trolling the troll

 

BTW..if you gobble up 4 tons of any Pu...or try to better said...you'd blow up in the biggest nuclear explosion the universe has ever seen long before you reach a pile of 4 tons.

Pu 239 is what I am referring too but remember the half life equates to half as much and follows a decay curve. It still takes 52 trillion zeros in years to reach a point where it is no longer radioactive. 239 takes much longer than what you stated, it must be someone's theory lol.

Are you referring to departure physics and harrier flying lol.:joystick:

I don't see any on youtube in real ones.

[drPhibes]

Using Pu239 actually makes this idea even dumber. I didn't see that coming...

[unltd]

In business terms this plan looks a lot like this:

 

Gnomes collect underpants + ??? = Profit

There is no way that you would ever understand the science behind such a propulsion, it is a waste of time anyone trying to explain it to you.:doh:

[AeriaGloria]

Subs I think we all have a grasp on nuclear heated steam propulsion. But after several half lifes you will have such a small amount of radioactivity you might only be able to heat an ant. It has to atleast make enough heat to make the one way trip to earth right?

You're just pulling all this out your ass. Or are we really supposed to believe you're a Kiwi Angel writing secrets of the universe on a greaseboard? It's just dumb trolling or you need a psychiatrist.

[Kang]

I count that as progress. We can now all agree that everyone else doesn't understand and move on from these nutcase topics.

[sobek]

Obviously some people don't need Pu to produce a lot of hot air.

[drPhibes]

While Antonov's An74 famously uses the coandă effect for additional lift, Subs' revolutionary technology will be the first type of spacecraft propulsion based purely on the Dunning-Kruger effect.

Don't worry, we'll have a little chat about this in person, you won't have any Acts to hide behind.:music_whistling:

4000 degrees C plus water = immense power

This kind of propulsion will allow HumanKind to achieve full exploration of the solar system and much more. You could use it for an aerospace craft airliner which operates at hypersonic speed.

He's the one citing peer reviewed sources, though.
