    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago_Pile-1

    Chicago Pile-1 (CP-1) was the world's first artificial nuclear reactor.On 2 December 1942, the first human-made self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction was initiated in CP-1 during an experiment led by Enrico Fermi.

  3. Fusion ignition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusion_ignition

    Fusion ignition is the point at which a nuclear fusion reaction becomes self-sustaining. This occurs when the energy being given off by the reaction heats the fuel mass more rapidly than it cools. In other words, fusion ignition is the point at which the increasing self-heating of the nuclear fusion removes the need for external heating. [1]

    They published the plans for all of these, with detailed design calculations and blueprints. The Ark used wind-based water pumping and electricity and was self-contained in food production. It had living quarters for people, fish tanks raising tilapia for protein , a greenhouse watered with fish water, and a closed-loop sewage reclamation ...

    Air–water gravity generator – Another invention from Rick Dickson, believed to be the hydro plant of the future. Pressured water is let into the Air – Water- Gravity generator which generates power by entering a vacuum chamber which then forces a piston to climb a stator. Electricity is generated at that point.

    [1] [2] [3] The concept of self-replicating machines has been advanced and examined by Homer Jacobson, Edward F. Moore, Freeman Dyson, John von Neumann, Konrad Zuse [4] [5] and in more recent times by K. Eric Drexler in his book on nanotechnology, Engines of Creation (coining the term clanking replicator for such machines) and by Robert Freitas ...

    Uranium creates heat through a self-sustaining reaction as it is bombarded by free neutrons created during fission and then reabsorbed to continue the reaction. The heat generated from the reaction heats water in the steam generator.
