It is such an engine that the American company LPS is developing (Laser Power Systems). A fundamentally new engine will work on thorium, eight grams of which is enough for a hundred years of operation of the machine. Therefore, a new car will be refueled at the factory – once and forever and ever.

Thorium has a fantastic density and is capable of producing just fantastic amounts of heat. According to expert Robert Hargraves, if scientists succeed in this experiment, then fundamentally new car engines will not just be convenient (no need refuel) and economical (fuel will become much cheaper, it will not be subject to constant inflation and so on), but environmentally friendly (humanity can thus save planet).
According to the scientist, this will solve the problem in nuclear energy, since thorium produces ten thousand times less radioactive waste, but the main thing is that this radioactive isotope is not supports a nuclear chain reaction, so in the event of an accident The decay of thorium will simply stop. All this will allow you to have miniature nuclear plants almost everywhere, say, first on enterprises, and then in every house, even every apartment. it It will not be more difficult than putting a mini reactor on a car.

Fiction and more! However, every sane a human question arises – who will allow American scientists create a unique fuel of the future, when the earth is still full hydrocarbon (oil and gas), and it is it that forms the whole of today global economy and politics? If you turn to the history of such inventions, then there were already a lot of them, and was created (and more than once) perpetual motion machine, fantastic cars were invented and super-economical and environmentally friendly fuel. But all these inventions did not receive a “registration” on our planet, moreover, their inventors most often simply disappeared or died with strange circumstances. And those who survived, before dying, admitted that by very serious “people in civilian clothes” came to him and simply forced forget about their “delusional scientific discoveries.” The materials of these discoveries at best were bought from inventors, at worst – just sneaked or climbed by force. And – disappeared forever eternal.
I think a similar story will happen with thorium. Even Laser Power Systems Scientists Reveal Secret fantastic fuel for cars, this one will bring them more troubles than regalia, and the world will still remain in ignorance that another invention had just been buried, able to make humanity happy. By the way, talking about thorium, as the fuel of the future, began a few years ago (see video), but not a single government, including Russia, not interested in him …
