Reverse Engineering the RCA 1802

I’m always impressed with the folks at visual6502.org. This time, they’ve opened up an early CMOS chip, the RCA 1802 micro. It’s kind of like a proto-LSI time capsule. This chip w…

This is a bit more old school, and information is probably a bit dated in some regards as new discoveries have been made, but I remember I really liked the book "Powers of Ten" as a kid. Lots of cool science stuff in there from galaxy clusters down to quarks. There was also a short movie made of it.
 
Great to watch, all the little cells under full color magnification in action.

Around 8:08 it is mentioned that every atom has protons and neutrons. Strange that they forgot the hydrogen atom which consist of a proton and an electron when electrically neutral. Deuterium is hydrogen with a neutron, a bit more than wice as heavy. Or is hydrogen special ? It already has special capabilities.
 
Yeah most Hydrogen atoms have no neutrons. Though deuterium and tritium do, these are far less common.

I looked it up, cause i thought Deuterium was rare and Tritium even more. In fact, it is not... Relatively speaking.

According to this site :
www.energy.gov

DOE Explains...Deuterium-Tritium Fusion Fuel

"
Deuterium is common: about 1 out of every 6,500 hydrogen atoms in seawater is in the form of deuterium. This means our oceans contain many tons of this hydrogen isotope.
"
Just need a special kind of centrifuge to separate the hydrogen isotopes based on the mass(weight).

This video tells me that our energy production methods are REALLY primitive:


The efficiency ratio for this physical phenomenon (input vs. output energy) seems to be insane.

That kind of pollutes this thread. It is called fiction and fairytales not for nothing.
