☺️The Pandora mission is not affected for the time being, but you should still expect all of them.😅😉

American lab is developing a BAT laser that could enable 'beyond EUV' lithography
#LLNL evaluating Big Aperture Thulium (BAT) laser technology to enhance #EUV efficiency by 10x compared to current industry-standard CO2 lasers. This advancement could pave way for a new generation of 'beyond EUV' #lithography systems that produce chips quicker and with less power. Unlike CO2 lasers that operate at a wavelength of about 10 microns, this system operates at around 2 microns.

Let me show you some Things I’ve made! Maybe I can make something for you. 😊 First, here’s a Buckaroo Banzai Oscillation Overthruster replica I made for my father-in-law, a nuclear physicist at #LLNL mostly styrene, some wood, screws and washers #handmade #propreplica #maker #rpf #buckaroobanzai

If you asked Alan Turing (and his chums) to build this (using thermionic valves/tubes) in standard sized cabinets then *the memory alone* would take up floor space equivalent to the area of Spain and it would require 25000 times the total Earth's electrical power generation. I repeat - that is NOT counting the actual 11 million CPU cores.
