New Blog Started – Adams Engines™

ByRod Adams


I have decided that it is time to share more information about Adams Engines™. I have a whole bunch of research materials gathering dust on my home library shelves that needs to be exposed to scrutiny and discussion. I have watched what has happened in the computer technology world when people decide to share their creativity openly; I figure it might work in the atomic technology field as well. It sure seems to be working for my friends at Energy from Thorium; their ideas are getting serious discussion for very good reasons. Kirk and Charles have built a site that is full of detailed information and accessible research that backs up their ideas.

At the new blog titled Adams Engines™ I plan on telling the tale of how the engine concept developed – slowly – and will also build up a list of links to the papers and articles written along the way. Where possible, I will also provide links to the detailed reports and papers that provided the technical basis for the decisions.

Feedback is always encouraged.
