Nitrogen - Even More Prone to Explosion
Nitrogen is most of what makes up Earth's atmosphere... You know, the air? It's not flammable or explosive at all.
Just what I was going to say. Inert gas, what?!

I'm sure you are joking about things like blood plasma. Please, put my mind at ease.

plasma- the idea of pushing people into a giant blender for power is just too appealing. Wouldn't like to see spillages at petrol stations though...

Umm, what about tesla turbines? they are quiet although they can sound like cars revving, and they run on water/steam, i've seen one someplace that ran on air!, So i choose none of the above as my choice is tesla turbine.

Defiantly needs Mr fusion then I could take a DeLorean back to the eighty's and make my mullet cool again.

-Hydrogen for cars. This is my favorite. You can get all the hydrogen you need from water. And that's what we have plenty here on Earth.

-Fusion for energy,if they are going to get it stable any time soon (and to get some He3 too). Before that fission and reusable power sources too. Wind, sun ,tide, (bio (maybe not, we need food after all)) -energy. You totally missed them.

-And magnetic fields for wireless transfer of the energy into electric devices like phones and laptops, no charging anymore. That is already working with small electric amounts. It's going to be exciting.

I meant the Nitrogen as in Nitrous Oxide, the special boost tey puts in teh cars to makes dem go faster
I hate to break it to you, but the energy released through NO[sub]2[/sub] (and every other exothermic chemical reaction) comes from energy that was stored in the molecule when it was formed.

In short, every reaction other than atomic fission or fusion takes just as much energy to prepare is it produces.

It's how chemistry and molecular physics work.

Also; magnetic turbines? What do you think we use now?

Energy can not be created or destroyed, it merely changes from one form to another.

Or, in the case of nuclear fission/fusion it changes to and from matter.

N[sub]2[/sub]O, it's not flammable or a high explosive. It's just an oxidizer. Can't be used as fuel. :p
