E8: Quantum Nano-Switches and the SABRE engine

  • Summary

  • After a horrendously long delay (sorry, Dan had audio issues) - we're back! I have a strange sense of déjà vu.

    This episode, Adam is talking about quantum nano-switches that could be used to miniaturise technology, and Dan is talking about how the SABRE rocket engine works.
