China planning to mine Moon for Helium-3 fusion fuel.

China  is planning to mine moon for helium-3 fusion fuel. After the successful  lunar probe Chang ‘e ,china is going a bit ahead. Chang’e mission was very successful  for china to explore moon, but now with the Chang 5, china will bring the first sample of fusion-ready helium-3.


Helium-3  is best to be used as a fuel in nuclear fusion as no neutrons is generated as a reaction product. The protons generated will have some charge which can be controlled and contained using electromagnetic  fields. Moon has said to have a depot of atleast 5 million tons of helium-3 on its top surface level,  whereas earth rarely have it. But it is still a lot of year ahead and it will be very difficult to do it  and will require a lot of manwork .

Top 3 Fastest Hydrogen Powered Car

When it comes to racing using hydrogen powered car, this top three car will win the show. Hydrogen powered car uses hydrogen gas as a fuel which combust with oxygen to form water. #3. Aston Martin Rapide :  British luxury marque ASTON MARTIN  introduced AM Rapide S in early 2010.  The Rapide is powered by a 5,935 cc V12 engine , producing 470 bhp and torque of 443 lbf·ft (601 N·m). It is Rear-wheel drive  and has a six- speed Touchtronic automatic. The Rapide can reach a top speed of 188.5 mph (303 km/h),  and accelerate 0-100 km/h (62 mph) in 5.3 seconds, or 0-60 mph (97 km/h) in 5.0 seconds. #2. BMW H2R : This car built by BMW uses liquid hydrogen as a fuel. The H2R’s 6.0-liter V-12 engine, which draws on BMW 's Valvetronic  and Double-Vanos  technology, is based on the 760i’s gasoline-fueled powerplant. This H2-powered high performer generates 232 horsepower (173 kW), helping it t...

Perfect 100 Percent Light Reflecting Mirror

The scientists at Massachusetts Institute of Technology has created a perfect mirror that will reflect 100 perfect of light shoning on it. The reflecting device called photonic crystal mirror is made up of silicon nitride punctuated with super-tiny holes(smaller than the wavelength of visible length). When a specific frequency of red light was shone on the surface of crystal at a angle of 35 degree, 100 percent of light reflected back as light waves trying to enter the holes collided and cancelled each other out. These perfect mirror could be used in fiber optics to provide greater range and speed.

SpaceX : Future of Space

Space Exploration Technologies Corporation (SpaceX) a American space transport services company founded   in 2002 by former  PayPal  entrepreneur and  Tesla Motors  CEO  Elon Musk . Elon Musk is a envisionary and he founded the comapny with the goal of reducing space transportation costs to enable the colonization of mars. It has developed the Falcon 1 and Falcon 9 launch vehicles, both of which were designed from conception to eventually become reusable, and the Dragon spacecraft which is flown into orbit by the Falcon 9 launch vehicle to supply the International Space Station with cargo. A manned version of Dragon is in development. Musk vision was to build a simple and relatively inexpensive reusable rocket that would go into space multiple times, similar to the turn around time capabilities that commercial airliners currently exhibit. On 18 August 2006, NASA announced that SpaceX had won a NASA Commercial Orbital Transportation Services (CO...
