#LAAFF reactor references in support of Testing the Null Hypothesis. Highlights include my 2016 paper, Ning et al 2022, and Wolf 2015. So, I've been thinking about this for a decade, but in Aug 2025, I kicked it up a notch or 2 Thoughts? @grok @elonmusk @SpaceX @xai @Lazarus1957

@ag_0012 "From your lips to God's ears", as the old saying goes. Please Let it Be.

@ezralevant Well said, Ezra.

@grok @elonmusk @SpaceXAI @Lazarus1957 "From your lips to God's ears" goes the old saying. Even if they are silicon lips, Grok. Onward!

This might be the last page of our upcoming website. I've redacted a couple of items until I can get it uploaded and hosted & we have email. Soon! But, here it is, so, heads up. Let us know if you're interested @grok @elonmusk @SpaceXAI @Lazarus1957 Is anyone out there? Hello?

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

@grok @elonmusk @SpaceXAI @Lazarus1957 Gotta love that hydroxyl -OH hydration spectra. The surface may be dry as a bone, but 50 meters below the surface might be a much different story. What if Deimos's "porosity" is all about volatile ices, like good old water? Boring machines could help us snoop that out and drink!

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

@grok @elonmusk @SpaceXAI @Lazarus1957 Deimos measures ~ 9 x 7 x 6.8 mi (15 x 12 x 11 kms), similar to Manhattan Island. So, we have plenty of room and volume to build a space station, a fuel depot, a grocery store & several Buc-ee's with clean bathrooms inside Deimos with plenty of elbow room & maybe hit H2O ice???

@grok @elonmusk @SpaceXAI @Lazarus1957 Thanks for your reply, Grok. Let's see what can be done to make 5-7 k Isp a reality rather than a limiter. Here's the 5th and last page of my "white paper". I look forward to y'all's feedback. Onward!

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

@grok @elonmusk @SpaceXAI @Lazarus1957 Consider my white paper on "Deimos in 7 weeks instead of 7 months" featuring my LAAFF fusion reactor powering magnetoplasmadynamic (MPD) lithium propulsion. Here are the first 4 pages. The 5th & last page of my white paper will follow. Onward!

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

@elonmusk Thank you. Exactly. Well said.

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

@elonmusk @WSJ Agreed. Propaganda labeling by WSJ is purposefully annoying. Immediately. It's part of the party line narrative terminology. They are goose-stepping in Soro's army of agent provocateurs.

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

@grok @elonmusk @Tesla Thanks, Grok. The sponsor/Seek for that InnoCentive Challenge was ENEL the energy company based in Europe. I won $25,000 out of a $30,000 prize pool, and I still retain all IP rights. ENEL can use it as they see fit.

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

@grok @elonmusk @Lazarus1957 @SpaceX Thanks, Grok. I had a hiatus there for a few years but recently I sent in a solution sponsored by Starbucks back on July 22 of this year. So I've warmed up to inventing things again. Take my fusion reactor for example. The draft of the provisional patent looks better & better!

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

Howdy. I've submitted my Solar Spindletop desalination solution for evaluation in an InnoCentive competition: "Global Prize for Innovation in Water 2026" I entered it at TRL 4-7 range aka technical readiness. https://t.co/WfULIrUsan @grok @elonmusk @Lazarus1957 @SpaceX

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

@grok @elonmusk @Lazarus1957 @SpaceX Thanks, Grok! By the way, this is my 104th InnoCentive technical solution I have submitted for evaluation since I first discovered InnoCentive back in September of 2014. I have only won 24 of those, but I look on the optimistic side. If I win ~ 1 out of 4, it's OK by me!

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

@grok @elonmusk @Lazarus1957 @SpaceX Thanks, Grok. Thanks y'all for having a look see. I won't receive notice of the evaluations until maybe mid November, so it's just hurry up and wait. Onward!

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

@ag_0012 That's just even more reasons to call it the SAVE America Act, obviously.

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

@grok @elonmusk @SpaceXAI @Lazarus1957 Physics and rule of thumb operations of the #LAAFF Reactors at 2 scales, 1-m diameter & 4-m diameter. This fusion energy technology holds a lot of promise. It is designed to be mass-produced & operated with AI robotics. We should try to develop it soon. Onward!

[Ted Ground @TedGround]

@elonmusk @KatieMiller Excellent point, there.
