How the Crossfire Fusion reactor uses helium 3 Fact: 1. The ingredients for fusion are deuterium, tritium, and isotopes of Helium 2. Electrons are shared between atoms 3. Deutrium + He3 -> proton(14.7 MeV) + He4 (3.7 MeV) + 18.4 MeV (Mass converted to energy) 4. A Deuterium + He3 reactor is optimal at 100 KeV. Crossfire fusion reactor: Electrons go to the ground and positive ions are accelerated in an electrostatic way against a negative potential. Meaning little power is required to reach a great kinetic energy (600 KeV for Boron hydrid). The Crossfire reactor uses a superconductor magnet 4.5 tesla to focus confinement; a superconducting magnet for exhausting plasma, a dielectric mirror for reflecting electromagnetic waves back to plasma. Plasma positive ion will attract electrons from neutralizers. The system will receive energy from plasma allowing the flux of electrons from ground to positive potential. The system will transfer energy to plasma pulling electrons from ground to negative potential. (Reference Link) 5. 1 million metric tonnes of He3, reacted with deuterium, would generate about 20,000 terrawatt-years of thermal energy (Reference Link) 6. About 25 tonnes of He3 would power the United States for 1 year at our current rate of energy consumption 7. Mark Suppes builds a small fusion reactor that uses deuterium gas as a fuel. The reactor puts off 30,000 volts with negligible amounts of radiation. The reactor is zero sum and not a golden reactor, but it does demonstrate potential. (Reference Link) 8. Helium 3 deteriorates into tritium. He3 represents 0.0002 percentage of all Helium. World demand for He3 is 76,000 liters per year, whereas, US demand is 8,000 liters. (Reference Link) 9. Could you mine moon rocks with robots to extract Helium 3 for fusion reactors on earth? (Reference Link)

1. Harold Vinegar is the oil industry leading expert on complex petroscience of transforming solid oil shale into synthetic crude. 2. Shell is convinced that shale oil is not myth. Shell says Vinegar technology will produce large quantities of high quality oil without ravaging the local environment and be profitable around $30 a barrel. 3. The Department of Energy believes that the Green River formation could produce 2 million barrels of oil a day by 2020 and three million by 2040. There is enough shale oil to maintain oil production for hundreds of years. 4. Vinegar process is called “In Situ Conversion Process” (In place) and it works like this: a. shell drills 1,800 foot wells and then inserts heating rods that raise the temperature of the oil shale to 650 degrees Fahrenheit. B) freeze walls are created by coolant piped deep into the ground preventing the oil from escaping. C) the heat transforms the kerogen into oil and natural gas. D) the natural gas is separated and oil is piped to a refinery to be converted into gasoline and other products. 5. The rapid growth in worldwide oil demand necessitates the development of unconventional oils. 6. Vinegar discovered that slower and lower temperature process – 650 degrees Fahrenheit verses 1000 degrees allows more hydrogen molecules to be liberated from kerogen being heated to react with the carbon compounds, the result is better oil, hallmarks of light crude. In 2005, Shell yielded 1,700 barrels of light oil and inserting heating rods in several hundred feet wells. Shell believes the Green River Formation could yield more than one million barrels of oil per acre. 7. Shell plans to build a refinery onsite, the first in 30 years. Some of the water utilized will be salinated water pumped from deep acquifers 8. Shell could earn a lot of money, assuming $20 a barrel profit and 300,000 barrel per day production would add $2.2 billion to Shell’s annual pretax profits. Three million barrels a day would be worth $22 billion.

1. Thorium is slightly radioactive metal (actinide) 2. Highest melting point of any oxide (3573 K) 3. Atomic number: 90 4. Melting point is 3182 F 5.Density 11.72 g/cc 6. Mohs hardness: 3.0 7. Largest liquid range of all elements. 8. US has 20% of thorium reserve 9. One site in Idaho produced 4500 Metric tons of Thorium per year 10. Replacing all the US electrical energy consumption would require 400 Metric tons of thorium. 11. There is 160,000 tones of extractable thorium in the US. Thorium is virtually limitless energy. 12. Thorium gives a good signal from space, so mining is very easy. 13. Thorium holds a similar promise too Fusion: safe, sustainable energy, minimal radioactive waste, and environmentally friendly. 14. thorium 232: thermal process, chemical processing system, and electricity generating system. Thermal breeding is safe and no extra material. 15. Why wasn't this done? It was a liquid system and existing system had to be broken. Uranium produced plutonium used for weapons and political these programs received government money. 16. The chemical reaction starts with U233 at the core, the thorium in the blanket becomes the Protactinium, remove the Protactinium chemical process return it to U233, and put the U233 back in the core. Hot in and cold out turns a generator producing electricity. 17. Thorium can not be used for weapons. 18. one ton of Thorium will produce 1 gigawatt of power for a year. 19. The waste decays in 300 years 20. The thorium plant could be used for Shale oil extraction and hydrogen production and desalination because of the high temperature of the reactor core.

In October 2020, the company was chosen by the United States Department of Energy as a recipient of a matching grant totaling between $400 million and $4 billion over the next 5 to 7 years for the cost of building a demonstration reactor of their "Natrium" design, which uses liquid sodium as a core coolant (this reduces the cost by having a non-pressurized primary loop). It then transfers that heat to molten salt which can be stored in tanks and used to generate steam for electricity production on demand, enabling the reactor to run continuously at constant power while allowing the electricity generation from the power station to be dispatchable

1. India is not producing Shale Oil at this time. 2. Shale oil reserves in India are estimated at 15 billion tons: Assam and Arunachal Pradesh deposits 3. Potential findings include Naga Schuppen Belt and Assam-Arakkan Fold Belt 4. MECL of India will partner with BRGM (France) and DGH (India) to assess oil shale resources in three adjacent blocks 5. Retort structures be formed by a combination of explosive fracturing and mining. Hot air or gases and steam cause shale oil to be collected at the bottom of the in-situ retort where it can be pumped to the surface. 6. India will create projects that extract coal and oil shale deposits at the same time. Coal is found in the Barail Formation. Shale and coal have been found together. Rock-Eval pyrolysis has been used to produce oil from coal and shale, a scaled down retort process. Rock-Eval yields for coal and shale indicate the potential of 280 kgs of hydrocarbons per ton of rock. US technology is needed to create the retort. Currently, the shale is dumped as a waste product. (Reference Link) 7. Shell used in-situ process to heat rock temperatures producing shale crude. 8. Joshi Oil is evaluating developing K-4 Shale zone in well DK-19 in the Dholka Field. JTIs oil production is about 700 barrels of oil per day. 9. Early estimates indicate that there is 137 billion tonnes of shale oil in the north-eartern states of India. (Reference Link) 10. Reliance Industries acquired a 40 percent stake in Atlas Energy's Marcellus Shale Acreage. 11. BP estimates conventional oil resources amount to 1.2 trillion barrels. Oil shales in over 600 deposits total 500 billion tonnes or 3.2 trillion barrels. Global Annual consumption of oil is 31 billion barrels.

Energetics new cold fusion, superwave technology, and history Fact: 1. In 2005 water left at room temperature two days earlier had boiled for more than five hours 2. Energetics Technologies saw evidence that 25 times more electric energy was being released than had been put in. Low energy nuclear reaction began to look promising. 3. Naval Research laboratories loaded microscopic nano-particles of palladium with deuterium and in thousands of experiments measured excess heat every time. 4. In 2001, Shaul Lesin and University of California-Berkeley nuclear engineer Ehud Greenspan tested low-energy nuclear reactions in electrolytic cells with varied results. 5. The Energetics used a modulated electric current (superwave) developed by Irving Dardik, who believe that by layering waves of electric current within each other, he could load deuterium into palladium at a great level. “Waves waving within waves” drives the LENR. Superwaves are defined as a low frequency carrying wave with several successive stages of amplitude and frequency modulation. Pulse energy seems to help load more deuterium into the palladium foil. As the palladium becomes saturated with deuterium, the deuterium moves back and forth in the lattice in unison. The more deuterium that is loaded into the palladium the higher the chances of excess heat. 6. In January 2010, Energetics shipped two 16,000 kilogram containers from Israel to Columbia. Seven Israeli researchers moved to Columbia. The incubator will benefit from top flight staff and facilities for testing. 7. Before the technology can be taken to market, consistent out must be achieved. “Sometimes it a little, and sometimes it’s a lot. So clearly we don’t understand the process, and this company and this laboratory is established to achieve reliable results”, says Jake Halliday, CEO of MU Life Science Business Incubator. (Reference Link) 8. Four experimental approaches are being pursued: electrolysis (EC), glow-discharge (GD), gas loading in catalyst cells(CC), and high-pressure high-temperature cell (HPTC) with ultrasonic wave excitation. Run #64b gave 1500% excess heat over a duration of 80 hours with a total excess energy of 4.6 megajoules. The most successful run was obtained in electrolytic cells. The current flowing through an electrolytic cells, or through a glow discharge chamber, was a superwave, a mixture of several low frequency components.(Reference Link) The Superwave fusion could produce enormous amounts of energy. A voltage is applied to two electrodes immersed in an electrolytic solution of Heavy water (deuterium) and Lithium salts and this establishes a current along a strip of palladium acting as a cathode. The coils act as the anode. The deuterium is disassociated to D+ and D- and O2 escapes to the surfaces. The D+ attach to the palladium strip. The D+ make their way into the palladium lattice. The superwave voltage regulation enhances the D+ loading into the palladium lattice. D+ makes itself deeper into the palladium lattice until it reaches saturation. The D+ fuse into Helium4 and a significant amount of energy, 24 MeV.

The power of vulnerability. Extend an invitation. The purpose is not what you do but what happens in others from what you do. It is absurd to think there is one best entity. What did they do that impacted to the world? What are you great at? Human desire to feel welcome? Serve yourself first. Put the oxygen mask on then the masks your kids. Brainstorm what you want to accomplish . Never underestimate the ideas and creativity of every member of your team. Hospitality genuine pleasure helping other people. Learn and teach their peers . Passion. You can be perfect at many components. Be really nice to people who come through your doors. You don’t need absolute clarity to start moving Serve people the way they want to be served If you are striving for human connection you must be vulnerable to establish genuine connection. Recognize one size fits one Actively listening then do things Empower teams with ownership Satisfaction goes up Give gifts as a part of the job The more thoughtful it is the more it is The feeling of connection is loyalty What gets measured gets managed You have to be unreasonable to see a world that does not exist

1. An 8X increase in field strength implies a 64 X increase in power. 2. If the coils are cooled by Liquid Nitrogen 2 or better yet Liquid Helium. 3. A polywell consists of electromagnet coils arranged in a polyhedral configuration and positively charged to 10s and low 100s of kilovolts, called MaGrid 4. Electrons are introduced outside the MaGrid and are accelerated into the MaGrid due to the electric field. 5. Within the MaGrid, the magnetic field contains most of the electrons. The electrons get trapped in the middle of the device which produces a virtual cathode, or negative potential well. 6. The polywell confines positive ions through their attraction to negatively charged electrons. The negative charges reside in the inner region of the reactor by magnetic fields. 7. The magnetic field vanishes at the center by symmetry and the magnetic flux that enters the volume through the coils. 8. Bussard claimed if superconducters were used for the coils, the only significant loss channel is through electron losses proportional to the surface area.
