Nuclear Fusion Deep Dive (ft. Avalanche Energy)

Hope you enjoy this look inside a nuclear fusion startup!

ABOUT JOHN COOGAN:

I've been an entrepreneur for the last decade across multiple companies. I've done a lot of work in Silicon Valley, so that's mostly what I talk about. I've raised over 10 rounds of venture capital totaling over $100m in funding.

I work mostly in tech-enabled consumer packaged goods, meaning I use software to make the best products possible

Dude the quote: "One team is paving the way while the other is speeding along in the car" really strikes me. That right there is the startup mindset and the one which will put america in the top of the game once again.

gonna build one of these in my backyard

[JesseMichels]

Amazing job, John! Fusion would be the most important breakthrough in our lifetime...

[HotblockLLC]

Why am I watching a floating head preaching the fusion fantasy to potential sucker investors? I've no idea.

[Young_Spoon]

I really appreciate your narrative style with the mix of the background sound/music. It really builds an interesting atmosphere which draws the attention of the listener/watcher. The content itself is also so interesting, thank you for such high quality content! Learning something new again today!

[Tempest]

Fusions companies shitting on other fusion companies when nobody has anything near a working product is laughable

I see Coogan, I click.
Shoutout from South Africa

Okay, so the voiceover is talking about the Space Shuttle, but the first clip that's shown is of one of the Saturn rockets from the Apollo program.

Everytime John's new video appears on my feed. I would shout and click into and watch it. 🎉 freakin excited for your videos, John.

Shoutout from Malaysia!

Dude i want you to know i appreciate the difference in content. Like its all extremely interesting and well done. I have so much information in my mind about nuclear and rockstar games!

[M.C.Escher]

Finally someone did it! I have waited my whole life for this - a portable power source than could be used instead of rockets. Good job guys.👍

John coogan you don't disappoint waited for this master piece ❤

[Bowlyful]

Thank you John Coogan for always providing knowledge

A more grounded engineering explanation as to why this prolly won’t work:


Essentially (assuming their confinement approach works):

1) They don’t address the tritium breeding problem (how to make your fuel)

2) Most of the fast fusion neutrons can will pass thru 6 inches of heat exchanger, so most of your energy will be lost + you’ll make everything around the device radioactive … (this is why most fusion experiments only run for short burst or/and have extremely thick and bulky shielding)

3) The engineering gain needs to more than 1, which prolly requires a scientific gain of more than 20 (so you need confinement better than anything ever

No sir Blue Orgin hasn't accomplush anything meaningful yet.

I still dey vex for yesterday acolyte episode
