  • (Side note: that fermented hay is called Silage and fun fact it’s one of the single foulest smelling substances produced by humanity. Smells more like raw sewage than actual raw sewage, and frequently triggers asthma attacks. Cows, inexplicably, go absolutely ape for it. A silage farm near where I grew up had frequent breakins from nearby pastured cows who had figured out the latches so they could sneak in.)














  • We’re using graphene! Almost entirely for it’s electrical properties true, but we’re using graphene doped batteries in consumer electronics currently. We also use fusion and ITER research for a whole lot more than just power generation - plasma dynamics, just one tiny subfield concerned with physics, has applications in everything from radio transmission beam forming techniques to satellite engines to magnetodynamic modeling to the EMI shielding on your vacuum cleaner.
