In 1984, I began my campaign to bring heavy industrial plasma processing to Alaska’s industrial productive capacity. Over the decades I have had some achievements at the University of Alaska, yet the fact is that overall, I continue to fail in my efforts as other parts of the world continue to move forward in this technology that is absolutely required for Alaska’s economic development.
I still say that the key to introducing this technology is to identify a science driver mission assignment to inspire the creativity of Alaska’s working industrial labor and inspire the creativity of young Alaskans who want to have an optimistic and productive future.
Our political leadership must recognize the industrial and cultural requirement of having the goal of launching miniature hydrogen and ceramic plasma processing reactors for strategic and construction materials as Alaska’s primary mission in space colonization.
Many industries and thousands of local high income employment opportunities will be created through having this long-term science driver mission.
We must not underestimate the cultural requirement for inspiring our young people to have more creativity and more satisfaction in their lives by participating in the larger goals of humanity.
