Hardly a reputable news source, strange that such an earth-shattering discovery has not made any major news outlets.
In other news 9/11 was an inside job and the Earth is ruled by Lizards in disguise.

Hardly spelling the end, the video shows a method of how it can be done. Doesn't even mention how many years they are away from developing it though. Probably 100 or so more projects like that going on at any one time. So don't hold your breath for a solution any time soon, could take 50 or years.Mansion TV. Avoid at all cost's :j0

This is almost pure hype. The actual footage of someone at Nasa shows a scientist talking hypothetically about something.
The narrator (who doesn't sound like a professional, and could have been employed by anyone) adds the spin.
If you look at past history, these schemes crop up with regularity, starting over a century ago with the first (recorded) "perpetual motion" schemes.
Almost all have been proven to be scams - aimed at getting people to invest in something that's "almost ready, just needs the final touches", and then doing a runner with the money.
The rest seem just to be self-delusion or attention-seeking.
Remember that Fleischmann and Pons made their world-shattering announcement more than 20 years ago, and have had a lot of time since to prove their cold fusion claims - and they have failed to do so. The Japanese spent $20million on research into the subject - and failed.0 -

Either way it looks like the LENR deniers are going to have to change their tunes and eat their words. It also looks like this revolutionary energy source has high level support in Washington.

that site looks so reputable NOT. Been going for a cpl of years with hardly any visits. Also there seems to be no other mention of this so called support.
LENR is a theory, and likt all other theories about alternative energy, yes they will get some support as there has to be another alternative fuel source, seeing as fossil fuel will run out.Mansion TV. Avoid at all cost's :j0 -

So you're saying that the report is false and the scientist in the video isn't really to be believed. Well, you are knowledgeable, far more knowledgeable than this eminent NASA scientist Dr. Joseph Zawodny who is speaking in the video.
You can read his credentials on this NASA site, http://eospso.gsfc.nasa.gov/directory/eospso_members/j_zawodny.php
LENR is not a theory, it's now a fact. Do a Google search for "NEWS LENR" you will find many reports confirming this.0 -

Spoilt for choice:rotfl:
I suppose a peer-reviewed paper published in a reputable journal is out of the question. I have a distrust of science by press release after the cold fusion debacle.

Probably NASA desperate for funding0

Goodness me, I don't know what sort of search you made. I have just this minute run a search for LENR with Google and got 471,000 results (0.40 seconds) if that's not enough results I don't know what is, just click on this link and you'll see what I mean www.google.co.uk/search?q=LENR.
Anyway, I'm not going to say anything more in this posting, anyone interested can read and believe what they want, I don't care either way. We will just have to see what the future brings. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that this new technology pans out because as Prof Brian Cox keeps saying all of the time "IT'S AMAZING".0 -

Do the search as above then click "news" in the left hand pane. Or click here.
Still no peer-reviewed paper.0
