On a side note: why the fuck is the OP so much bigger than the other posts?

Optimisation by using calc

If nuclear fusion and fission are opposite processes then how can they both release energy? Isn't there some kind of conservation law being violated here?

is Aerospace Engineering worth studying? or is it a dead industry?

Fusion of elements smaller the Iron release energy, and fission of elements bigger than Iron release energy

>Bill Nye the Bachelors in Mechanical Engineering Guy

there are people on /sci/, right now, with more education than this man.

also, Bob Villa uses mexican day labor and isn't even a licensed contractor.

You just can't predict what the industry will be like in 4 years. It might be dead, or we might be the '60s and '70s all over again with hypersonic planes

>>7839445
just get a mechanical degree instead and take electives in advanced fluid mechanics and numerical modeling.

Shouldn't this chart be inverted? Why does Iron have the highest energy if these exothermic reactions are supposed to lead to iron?

>Shouldn't this chart be inverted?
Yes, because binding energy is a potential energy, which is negative. For the sake of simplicity, they charted it as positive, I guess. Good eye

Here's the sum.
[math] \frac{ 2^{x_1} } {3} + \frac{ 2^{x_1} 2^{x_2} } {9} + ... + \frac{ 2^{x_1} 2^{x_2} ... 2^{x_n} } { 3^{n} } [/math]

What causes the occasional muscle "throbs" I feel? For instance, I just felt my forearm thob rapidly a couple of times and then go back to normal. Do muscles just spontaneously contract sometimes?

Here's a question, were photons the first particle in existence after the Big Bang? Are all other particles descended from photons?

Seriously though when will other beings come and visit us? Every night I take out the trash I look up at the perty sky with all them starts up there wondering when we'll be visited. I want this to happen before I die!

And no I didn't just spend a whole hour watching a bunch of crazy universe videos on Jewtube. Maybe.
