World’s First Nuclear-Powered Diamond Battery Can Power Devices for Millennia
The world’s first nuclear-powered battery has been developed by researchers at the University of Bristol, offering an incredible lifespan of thousands of years. Using carbon-14, a radioactive isotope with a half-life of 5,730 years, embedded within a diamond structure, the battery generates energy without requiring motion or maintenance. Short-ra...

Nuclear X-rays Could Deflect Asteroids and Protect Earth, Study Suggests
Researchers from Sandia National Laboratories have discovered that exploding a nuclear bomb near an asteroid may produce X-rays powerful enough to push it off course. Instead of blowing the asteroid apart, the method involves vaporising its surface to alter its trajectory. Using the Z Machine, the world’s most powerful X-ray source, they successf...

China Successfully Tests 'Artificial Sun' to Harness Clean Energy by 2040, 5 Times More Powerful Than Real Sun
China is experimenting with an “artificial sun,” dubbed Experiential Advanced Superconducting Tokamak (EAST), to make way for clean energy in the future. The device setup is a fusion reactor which ran successfully for almost 20 minutes at a stunning 70 million degrees Celsius in a recent test. The machine strives to utilise the power of nuclear...
