“The idea is to supplement renewable power with carbon neutral fuel, supplementing those renewables at night.  This system is not carbon negative, it makes carbon neutral fuels, furthermore you can not run this system off of power provided by hydrocarbons or what you are doing is totally redundant.  If your goal is to make money then you can run it off of whatever power is cheapest so longs as the amount of fuel you get is worth more than your energy bill.”

Exhaust from the RS-25 produces rain clouds.  By the way, it is well known in meteorology that particulates in exhausts from smokestacks and power plants can “seed” the generation of clouds.  Attempts have even been made to see with ice crystals.  Lots more after the jump.

Now, researchers have developed a formula that describes the process, from the collapse of a bubble’s cavity to the creation of a jet of liquid that shoots from the bubble. The drops of fluid ejected by the jet form aerosols that collect above surfaces of everything from the ocean to a glass of sparkling wine. Because these aerosols play a critical role in many disciplines, including atmospheric science, understanding the conditions under which they form has been a goal of researchers for decades.
