'Startup Says Its Nuclear Fusion Rocket Could Cut Time to Mars in Half'

futurism.com/nuclear-fusion-ro

'The firm is hoping to achieve fusion in orbit for the first time in 2027, a moonshot plan that could put far-flung destinations in our solar system within much easier reach — if everything goes perfectly according to plan, at least.'

#Space 🌌 is a far more logical, sensible place to do #fusion, because that’s where it wants to happen anyway. In 📆 2027, we’re going to send a small part of #Sunbird in #orbit. The first #functional Sunbird will be ready four to five years later. Sunbird could deliver #cargo to #Mars 🔴 in under six months edition.cnn.com/science/nuclea

This is another record from my collection that I have my old upstairs neighbor in Brooklyn to thank for.

A very smooth #fusion record with a touch of Latin flair.

It’s a safe assumption that Ernie has long passed, since he was in his late sixties when we last saw each other in 2001, but you never know.

There’s lots in my collection he introduced me to.
Thank you, Ernie, wherever you are.
