Synthetic biology

-
Synthetic biology is an interdisciplinary field that combines biology and engineering to create new biological systems and modify existing ones. It involves the use of genetic engineering, gene synthesis, and other techniques to design and construct biological parts, devices, and systems that do not exist in nature.

The goal of synthetic biology is to create new living systems with specific functions that can be controlled and manipulated by humans. It has the potential to revolutionize various fields, including medicine, energy, agriculture, and environmental science.

One of the key applications of synthetic biology is the development of new drugs and therapies for various diseases. By engineering cells to produce therapeutic proteins or to deliver drugs to specific tissues, synthetic biologists are working to develop more effective treatments for cancer, genetic disorders, and other diseases.

Synthetic biology is also being used to create new materials, such as biofuels and bioplastics, that are more sustainable and environmentally friendly than traditional materials. By designing and engineering microorganisms that can produce these materials, scientists are developing new ways to produce chemicals and fuels that are less harmful to the environment.

Overall, synthetic biology holds great promise for improving human health and well-being while also addressing some of the world's most pressing environmental and social problems.

What did Tesla, The car company do? 1- For a long time the auto industry creative giants were Mercedes, BMW, Porsche, Audi, GM and Ford. That got replaced by Tesla in less than 10 years. 2- Fire, is a cave man technology, that is used in a fossil fuel car. In a commercial succesful car, Tesla was to first to move out of cave man technology. 3- If any one were to buy a stock today. One of a factors to consider is rate of innovation. Why does it matter? Ask your self where was Amazon 10 years back. Today, it might not be the #1 shopping option for many products, at the same time helps us plan. If we find a better deal, also changes our  shopping behavior. Tesla has done a similar thing with sourcing to manufacturing, sales and after sales of a car.

Atomic Battery

Look at the Tesla car and thinking the only thing holding it back is the battery power. What if a car had a small radio active reactor. This replaces the battery weakness of holding a limited charge.  The heating elements in the car need to be efficient, that is where aerodynamics and radiator checks in.  Getting in a little bit more deep. If a personal vehicle of 300kgs had to move at day 40 KMPH.  Precondition:  In even terrain the car consumes more than 3kW to maintain 40km/h. In an ideal place, it take 4X times more force to move a body from constant. So that amount of power needed to a body of 300 kgs at 40 KMPL should be equal to moving 1200 kgs. Which will need a motor close to 1200W.  Based on what I was able to find a small atomic battery will be the size if a penny and can last for 5,730 years to reach 50 per cent power, if it is a Carbon-14 one.                  - Tathagat Banerjee Few sources of information: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_battery https://newatlas.co

http://www.sunmobility.co.in/ The biggest challenge for a EV is, battery. This firm, Sun Mobility offer a low cost option to EV vehicles. A charge of 8 hours is done in 2 hours. Currently, this addresses the issue for a 2 & a 3 wheeler. Already bangalore electric buses to grow in number, 150 charging stations coming up in karnataka, that contributes to a lot of pollution in developing countries.
