That thing is so cool. I think we had a thread on it, a while back. regardless of if the other hurtles can be overcome (finding a way to recompress the gas, mitigating the recoil (which i dont fully understand, since it should be an internal force) and developing a light enough, strong enough casing) EVERYTHING should run on a polonium 210 powersource in the future. thats just sooo cool. the idea sort of reminds me of the things the female cyborg ran on, in T3 (yeah, the movie sucked..)

The idea of packing around a small power source, for a rifle, that can power a small town - or melt metal if unshielded - why doesn't my motorcycle run on a couple of those? talk about fully viable electric engines. unless your worried about, you know, safety. or radiation.

what was the line from ghost busters?

"each of us is wearing a nuclear accelerator on our backs..."

"Right. Switch me on."
