    I like to find information on things like breakthrough propulsion physics, magnetoplasmic shields and theoretical physics. I am not familiar with this site so I don’t know if these are things you would consider, but congratulations on being chosen for the Carnival of Space this week.

      Hi Thomas,

      Thanks for your kind words. I normally don’t post on topics like these but it’s not to say that I wouldn’t in the future. However, for theoretical physics I recommend checking out my good friend http://www.thephysicsmill.com/. Hope you enjoy and please feel free to stop by again!

      Cheers,
