7 Big Ideas from Kole’s Twitter (twitter.com/kolelutz). Explore carbon capture near airports and wildfire smoke, remote sensing to image wet wood, CO2 clouds, and energy efficient wind turbines.
Dive into research, materials and progress of reflective materials to prevent ice melting with Dr. Leslie Field, Founder of Bright Ice and Arctic Ice Project (https://www.arcticiceproject.org/)
Learn about Arctic Ice Project, and Bright Ice a nonprofit that plans to inhibit glacial melting by adding a safe, reflective material to the surface of dirty ice and water to brighten (www.brighticeinitiative.org)
Explore >10um Si microspheres such as 3M™ Glass Bubbles materials, dynamics, lifespan, , and environment savings with potential to mitigate 1.02°C rise and sea ice volume mitigation of about 8% per 1C rise, and with up to 40% increase in lifespan of ice. Even adding 1% of Arctic sea ice is enough to make a significant difference in overall reflectivity.
Explore GuardTop’s CoolSeal Reflective Coating to reflect 30% more sunlight, reduce asphalt surface temperatures by 10-25 degrees Fahrenheit, and save millions in thermal/energy costs. Dive into solar-activated engineered pigment, material properties, challenges such as UV light, microcracks, and also the environment/energy/cost savings, growth and potential to overcome global warming and cool planet Earth.

Learn about research,benefits, and significance from humans producing vitamin D from sunlight. Our guest Dr. Michael Hollick, who is considered to be the father of vitamin D, is responsible for creating a billion-dollar vitamin D sales market and testing juggernaut, shares his research and findings on Sunlight-induced Vitamin Synthesis.
Explore Ten Ideas on Biological Evolution from Top Engaged Tweets from Twitter (https://twitter.com/kolelutz) in 2022
0:13 Unexplored Space Biology on ISS,
Learn about Minimass from Andy Coward on the mission to create low-carbon, low-cost, 3d printed concrete beams with 78% reduction in concrete, and 50% reduction in material costs. Approach holds potential to 3D print any compression carrying material for buildings and bridges on Earth and beyond. Topics include: 3D printing with mortar in-situ, sawtooth beam design, materials science <2-10mm aggregates, and more.
Andy Coward of Net Zero Projects (NZP) Limited, holds a 1st class degree in Civil and Structural Engineering from the University of Cambridge and has over 15 years of experience in design and construction. Prior to inventing Minimass, he held senior positions at Bjarke Ingels Group in Copenhagen as director of engineering and at Foster + Partners in London as associate partner.
Dive behind the scenes at AIAA's SciTech 2023 Forum with Taylor Fazzini, Principal Systems Engineer at Northrop Grumman. AIAA SciTech hosted a record breaking 5,800 researchers/professionals, 30+ exhibitors 2500+ technical panels/sessions, 70+ different companies participating at National Harbor, MD now that forum is back in person, Learn More https://virtualscitech.aiaa.org/ Frontier Space Podcast https://anchor.fm/frontierspace
Learn about how lead Iodide perovskites (CH3Nh3PbI3) and thin-film cadmium telluride (CdTe) can be utilised for X ray and gamma voltaics. After researchers observed 75% charge collection efficiency with MAPbl3, Material shows less than 20% decrease in performance up to 40 Sv of Xray dose, demonstrating very good stability with a few on orbit demos. Topics include applications to collect ambient energy near reactors and soft X-ray background (SXRB/CXRB in 2-100keV).
