#DidYouKnow: A #Cryogenic rocket engine is a rocket engine that uses a cryogenic fuel and oxidizer; that is, both its fuel and oxidizer are gases which have been liquefied and are stored at very low temperatures.
These highly efficient engines were first flown on the US Atlas-Centaur and were one of the main factors of NASA's success in reaching the Moon by the Saturn V rocket.

If cryosleep were a thing, how might it be abused? Used for good? What are your fave cryosleep titles? Authors?

Cryo-mechanical bling!
For the past two and a half days Jean Louis Lizon has been giving a course on cryogenic vacuum technology at Australian Astronomical Optics. Lots of interesting information and insights based on his 40 year career at the European Southern Observatory, with one example being this cryogenic ball bearing with Ruby balls and gold-plated races.

#Cryonics is the practice of freezing clinically-dead people in liquid nitrogen (N2) with the hope of future reanimation.
Many #scientists will admit that some sort of #cryogenic preservation and revival does not provably violate known physics. But they stress that, in practical terms, freezing and reviving dead humans is so far off as to hardly be worth taking seriously; current cryonics practices are speculation at best and #quackery and #pseudoscience at worst.

have you given serious evaluation to long-term #cryogenic liquid air #energystorage yet? It seems to stack up well against #batteries in terms of mature engineering, efficiency, scale-ability, universal deploy-ability and safe #cleantech.

📢 Cold valve boxes in production! They will distribute #cryogenic fluids to the #ITER Cryopumps, and will cope with temperatures from 🥶 -269 °C up to 🥵 +230 °C!
@fusionforenergy thanks RI and Cryoworld for the good job 🙌
