  The Jupiter Sun - The Greatest...

  This idea came to me from an earlier work of Science Fiction of mine - The Book To End All Books - by Michael Mathiesen.  In the story, the main character lands her first job out of college in helping in the Jupiter Project - which consists of igniting Jupiter into our second sun.  In doing the research for my story, to make it more realistic, I found that scientists had already used red lasers to create fusion reactions in the lab.  These were obviously small enough so that they didn't burn down the whole state of Nebraska.  They used just a few atoms of Hydrogen to test their theory.  And, it worked producing fusion energy for the first time, but now replicated many hundreds of times around the world. So, this means that by upscaling our nuclear fusion reaction and creating huge amounts of energy, all we have to do is put this same kind of laser cannons on the four largest moons of Jupiter and fire into the center of the mass of Jupiter because it's completely Hydrogen gas, Hydrogen plasma and even Hydrogen so dense it's called 'Metallic'.  This mimics the conditions of our sun over 6 billion years ago when it was also a huge gas ball and only needed a spark to ignite its main ingredient into the gigantic fusion reaction that gives all the energy that all life on planet Earth needs.  A 2nd Sun would solve all our energy problems I reasoned and the impacts would be all positive.In this book, we go over the details of how NASA and hopefully Spacex and Blue Origins can get together and create a mission to create a 2nd sun in the sky.  Imagine how other civilizations all around the universe who are able to look up into the sky around their planets with telescopes and instruments as powerful as ours and they notice a completely new star blazing into the night sky.  They might even be able to conclude that this star had to have been created by an intelligent life form, a life form that may have achieved something no other life form had ever done before.

  Made in the USA - The Rise and...

  In Made in the USA, Vaclav Smil powerfully rebuts the notion that manufacturing is a relic of predigital history and that the loss of American manufacturing is a desirable evolutionary step toward a pure service economy. Smil argues that no advanced economy can prosper without a strong, innovative manufacturing sector and the jobs it creates. 
   
   
    
  Smil explains how manufacturing became a fundamental force behind America's economic, strategic, and social dominance. He describes American manufacturing's rapid rise at the end of the nineteenth century, its consolidation and modernization between the two world wars, its role as an enabler of mass consumption after 1945, and its recent decline. Some economists argue that shipping low-value jobs overseas matters little because the high-value work remains in the United States. But, asks Smil, do we want a society that consists of a small population of workers doing high-value-added work and masses of unemployed? 
   
   
    
  Smil assesses various suggestions for solving America’s manufacturing crisis, including lowering corporate tax rates, promoting research and development, and improving public education. Will America act to preserve and reinvigorate its manufacturing? It is crucial to our social and economic well-being; but, Smil warns, the odds are no better than even.

  They Knew - The US Federal...

  In 2015, a group of twenty-one young people sued the federal government for violating their constitutional rights by promoting the climate catastrophe, depriving them of life, liberty, and property without due process of law. They Knew offers evidence for their claims, presenting a devastating, play-by-play account of the federal government's role in bringing about today's climate crisis. James Speth, tapped by the plaintiffs as an expert on climate, documents how administrations from Carter to Trump—despite having information about climate change and the connection to fossil fuels—continued aggressive support of a fossil fuel based energy system. 
   
   
    
  What did the federal government know and when did it know it? Speth asks, echoing another famous cover up. What did the federal government do and what did it not do? They Knew (an updated version of the Expert Report Speth prepared for the lawsuit) presents the most compelling indictment yet of the government's role in the climate crisis, showing a forty-year failure to take action. 
   
  Since Juliana v. United States was filed, the federal government has repeatedly delayed the case. Yet even in legal limbo, it has helped inspire a generation of youthful climate activists.
