Our nuclear power now depends on mining uranium and processing it to get the isotopes that are fissile. It's unclear how long this could last as practical, some say not too long especially if the whole world starts to depend on it.

the idea of switching to breeder reactors has been around since the beginning. The below googling is a truncated text that should start with "... our energy resource options are derived either directly from sunlight (solar, wind, hydro, biofuel), by digging up fossilized organic matter (coal, oil, gas), or from accessing primordial energy (nuclear fission, geothermal, tidal, fusion). These are all limited in quantity. Some will last us about as long as the sun, while others may run out soon and are thus not sustainable."

how long will nuclear fuel last with breeder reactors?

Some will last us about as long as the sun, while others may run out soon and are thus not sustainable. Breeder reactors can power all of humanity for more than 4 billion years

If we don't have good fuel answers in the next 1000 years, I'd be surprised. Not that I'll be around.

If it were my decision, I'd use water as an energy source.


The hydrogen inside the water molecule.

The issue is the molecular binding requires more energy to crack than returned.


Unless using the energy of the Sun to crack the bond.


It's the way plants work.

They inherently know how to use the Sun's energy efficiently to crack water.

With the Curupira, I haven't seen one, yet. :)


I tracked the legend down to a Spanish Priest in the 1500s.

He could write and involved teaching the Tapi tribes about Jesus.

So he recorded it several hundred years ago but I can't find the doc yet.

I think some of the wild turkeys around here can make tracks look like they went the other way to fool you

along with some other tricks, like ability to disappear before your eyes

so the Curupira arent the only ones

How long did you snipe hunt before you figured it out?

I heard a lot of talk about that gag but never met anyone who was subjected to it ... of course, it's not something you'd admit

just for the record, one takes note of turkey tracks and such when hunting them, but there's no tactic of trying to follow the tracks thinking it would lead you to a bird.

The red hair is what interested me the most about them other than their feet turned backwards.


During Pangea, that area would have been connected to Africa.

They'd fit together like a puzzle.

So I'd think there'd be some sightings there too if they were real.

Figured what out? Just because you couldn't catch one please don't disparage the rest of us.

According to the Oxford dictionary

Snipe:
noun
a wading bird of marshes and wet meadows, with brown camouflaged plumage, a long straight bill, and typically a drumming display flight.

You might have a natural gift for snipe hunting.
