OMEGA

2012-04-19 16:21:19.411115+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

My experience last year with various government bureaucrats assigning far more weight to "NASA research projects" than said projects could possibly support has me linking to this with extreme trepidation, but I do believe that processes like this are our most likely path forward in terms of mechanisms for converting solar power to stored energy:

NASA Ames Research Offshore Membrane Enclosure for Growing Algae (OMEGA) project, NASA Lunar Science Institute OMEGA project, via a Phys.org reworking of a press release.

Basically, trying to grow biofuel oils from algae in processed wastewater.
