China reveals military exoskeletons which are behind current US exoskeletons

China has a new lighter and stronger military exoskeleton. Refinements in weight, ergonomics, and power supply could boost the second-generation exoskeleton’s coefficiency ratio. Norinco claims that the reduced weight increases battery performance. Other companies in China are working on exoskeletons * China Shipbuilding Industry Corporation’s has a powered exoskeleton for shipyard workers * Chinese military …

Hybrid Fusion Fission Molten Salt Reactor

A single HMSR (Hybrid Fusion Fission Molten Salt Reactor) is designed to produce 5 GW thermal power at 700 C, thermal conversion systems should be able to generate 2.1 GW gross electricity. For comparison, the largest PWR’s now under construction will convert the same thermal power to 1.6 GW of electricity, i.e., 500 MW less. …
