All thanks to the giant Nuclear Fusion reactor at the center of our solar system, ‘The Sun’. The Sun generates energy from its core where Hydrogen atoms fuse to create a Helium atom producing tremendous amounts of energy in the process. This energy is essential to life on earth. The sunlight is used by plants to produce food which is directly or indirectly the food source to all living things; it is responsible for seasons; its heat maintains water in its liquid form which is primary for life to exist; sunlight is an essential source of vitamin D to the human body and many more life supporting processes which are either directly or indirectly choreographed by the sun.</p> </div><footer class="entry-footer"></footer></article><article class="type-post entry has-post-thumbnail" aria-label="Terrafugia TF-X – The Flying Car"><header class="entry-header"><p class="entry-meta">By <span class="entry-author"><a href="https://www.engineersgarage.com/author/spravas/" class="entry-author-link" rel="author"><span class="entry-author-name">Shalem Pravas</span></a></span> <time class="entry-time">April 7, 2021</time> </p><h2 class="entry-title"><a class="entry-title-link" rel="bookmark" href="https://www.engineersgarage.com/terrafugia-tf-x-the-flying-car/">Terrafugia TF-X – The Flying Car</a></h2> </header><div class="entry-content"><a class="entry-image-link" href="https://www.engineersgarage.com/terrafugia-tf-x-the-flying-car/" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"><img width="268" height="170" src="https://www.engineersgarage.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Title-images-268x170.jpg" class="alignleft post-image entry-image wp-image-21049" alt="" decoding="async" loading="lazy" /></a><p>With airplanes, we could traverse long distances quickly but not taking us exactly where we want to go but to the nearest airport mostly while sharing the ride with other passengers. Cars will take us to a more precise location as long as it is connected by a road, but at a much slower pace. The fusion of these two technologies will get usa hybrid which retains a portionof the positives from both sides, leading to the birth of the “Flying Car”.</p> </div><footer class="entry-footer"></footer></article><article class="type-post entry has-post-thumbnail" aria-label="The Google Driverless Car"><header class="entry-header"><p class="entry-meta">By <span class="entry-author"><a href="https://www.engineersgarage.com/author/spravas/" class="entry-author-link" rel="author"><span class="entry-author-name">Shalem Pravas</span></a></span> <time class="entry-time">January 2, 2021</time> </p><h2 class="entry-title"><a class="entry-title-link" rel="bookmark" href="https://www.engineersgarage.com/the-google-driverless-car/">The Google Driverless Car</a></h2> </header><div class="entry-content"><a class="entry-image-link" href="https://www.engineersgarage.com/the-google-driverless-car/" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"><img width="268" height="170" src="https://www.engineersgarage.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Image-Lexus-Rx450H-Google-Driverless-Car-268x170.jpg" class="alignleft post-image entry-image wp-image-55631" alt="" decoding="async" loading="lazy" /></a><p>We know them as the most popular search engine in the World Wide Web. They are much more than that. They pioneer in inspiring innovation in the field of technology which is beyond their time. The google driverless car is a project by google which involves the development of technology to make a car self-dependent. The software that google use to automate cars is known as the “Google Chauffeur”. They do not produce a separate car but install the required equipment onto a regular car.

The first part of this law tells us that there is a fixed amount of energy in the universe whereas, the second part gives a sneak peak into how we can utilize the available energy to alter it into a form which is useful to us. The ideal case would be that the entire portion of the source energy be converted to the form of our choice.</p> </div><footer class="entry-footer"></footer></article><article class="type-post entry has-post-thumbnail" aria-label="Alcubierre Warp Drive – Faster Than Light Propulsion"><header class="entry-header"><p class="entry-meta">By <span class="entry-author"><a href="https://www.engineersgarage.com/author/spravas/" class="entry-author-link" rel="author"><span class="entry-author-name">Shalem Pravas</span></a></span> <time class="entry-time">October 27, 2020</time> </p><h2 class="entry-title"><a class="entry-title-link" rel="bookmark" href="https://www.engineersgarage.com/alcubierre-warp-drive-faster-than-light-propulsion/">Alcubierre Warp Drive – Faster Than Light Propulsion</a></h2> </header><div class="entry-content"><a class="entry-image-link" href="https://www.engineersgarage.com/alcubierre-warp-drive-faster-than-light-propulsion/" aria-hidden="true" tabindex="-1"><img width="268" height="170" src="https://www.engineersgarage.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/Image-Showing-the-Alcubierre-Warp-Drive-268x170.jpg" class="alignleft post-image entry-image wp-image-51151" alt="" decoding="async" loading="lazy" /></a><p>Our theoretical description of space is the entire observable universe which extends to 13.8 Billion Lightyears (because the universe is 13.8 Billion Years old) through whichever direction we look at it (and is the same from any point of observation in the universe, since the universe is infinite).

Communication is steadily growing its speed, while the same cannot be matched by transportation. There are currently 5 modes of transportation; road, rail, air and sea. Out of these road and sea are quite slow, air is fast but expensive and rail is not as fast as it needs to be.

Leaving the ground is in defiance with the gravitational pull of the earth and therefore requires a certain work needs to be done by a body to propel it. This propulsive force is known as ‘thrust’. If we consider a rocket for example, when it lifts off, chemical reactions take place in its combustion chamber producing large amounts of trapped energy which explodes out at high speeds through a nozzle and exerts force on the atmosphere.

In the previous century, computers were only affordable by a small fraction of the society like large corporate or educational institutions and could only be operated by experts but, as time progressed so did technology.
