I was told by a Navy bean counter at Talk-Polywell that the latest numbers are more order of magnitude sorts of things. i.e. +/- 20%. So no. As of now it is about $8 million with a 4 million kicker for WB-8.1 IIRC

Hello,

On October 4th the Navy published a Justification and Award for the
polywell, with the following three points:

* The award is for $10 million
* WB-8.0 report to be delivered 30 March 2010
* WB-8.1 report to be delivered 30 March 2012

Does this mean funding is 10 million till March 30, 2010? Till March 30, 2012?

Does this change the 7.8 million award from 9-11-09?

Does this mean funding is now 17.8 Million?

Thanks,
Matt

Or endusers can download compatible FREE open source software: 


Microsoft has behemothed itself with incompatible revisions and an absence of enduser revision updates ... I think we can all agree when technology starts to break down or become ineffective at meeting needs we need to look for new technology (fission -> fusion; Microsoft -> OpenOffice). 

I successfully opened the file with the latest release of OpenOffice Writer.

Or better yet, some common cross-platform format like PDF rather than
some closed proprietary Microsoft format. I for one don't have any
Microsoft products on my machine, and will keep it that way.

Dear One and All

You have basically two options to read the document.

You need Microsoft Office 2007 to view the docx extension file or
You need a document viewer capable off reading the docx file extension

Yes, but they WILL be experimenting a decade from now! So, put that on
your calendar; 2018 is the year the ITER will begin testing fusion.

So, when does the Polywell do that? Aren't they already doing that or
is that what is coming up in the next 18 months. Maybe if EMC2
postpones the testing for another decade they'll get more money?

This is very exciting news!

Although I'm only an observer of all of this I'm filled with both
dread and excitement for the future.

Will everything go as planned? I would be delirious if it did. I'm
tempering this thought with ... everything will go pear-shaped as
additional unexpected conditions present themselves and the whole
project begins to resemble the Tokamak. :(

I believe that it requires immense pressure as well as low temperature to get the density up.

It is interesting. It is hard to see how it could be practical.
