(1/4) HTRE-2 and HTRE-3 are two experimental reactors designed for nuclear powered aircraft at the Idaho Nat. Lab. Rather than burning fuel, the reactor would heat air sent through a compressor which would then be expelled for thrust. #Science #NuclearPhysics #Physics #Engineering #History 🧪⚛️🧵

my partner snores like a fucking chainsaw sometimes.

i dislike the snoring, but i hate not sleeping in the same bed more.

if anyone has a suggestion for headphones that don't destroy your ear holes when you sleep that'd be fucking grand.
