mastergraywolfJust an update.
I'm still having trouble with the first chapter of United We Soar, and the new Seishin story. I am still also troubled by my writing style. When I get home, I'll consider returning to either story. I want to work on the start on the new HoGW chapter. I should of began a long time ago.
Time for fun science stuff.

Dry air is composed of 78% of nitrogen, 21% of oxygen, 0.93% of argon.
Only 000055% of air has hydrogen...and nitrogen is very explosive, but produces lots of energy.
Hydrogen + Oxygen = water. There is water vapor (mostly in the 21-22% oxygen), most in the troposhere..
One important idea for the Strike Lancer is long-distance flight.
In an aircraft's internal turbojet engine, bleed air enters into the compressor (cold section), then the combustion chamber (hot section), mixed with fuel/gasoline, heated up, then unleashed through the turbines to create thrust.
For the Strike lancer, it uses two thermonuclear engines. Each engine has reactor core with fuel rods emitting atoms. Plenum chambers are needed to cool the heat and hydrogen to unleash as thrust. I assumed the atoms could be used as thrust alone but I don't think that's the case.
At first, I thought the hydrogen was just used for cooling but it's for propulsion.
OR the engine can just heat up air alone, which is made of nitrogen/oxygen/water vapor, then unleash it. And then maintenance can only be focused on the engines. Then that'll mean no waste of fuel. I would love that.
On a side not, I think too much hydrogen exposure can make it explode though so thrust is necessary to relieve the air (since water is in the air as water vapor). At least, that is my current belief. Another issue is engine damage from freezing or the opposition, ignition.
I hope to make my ultimate decision soon.
For the first chapter of UWS, this isn't important as Aiden will not begin flight until second chapter. I'm just psychologically hindered to write.
