NASA Stirling Engine Cars "very cool"

Post by vamoose »

Check out this video!!

[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H_Vnxapd5fs[/youtube]

Its the first video footage of the nasa stirling engine vehicles that i've come across! "YaY"!!
(it was uploaded about 1 month ago)
If anyone else has any good video's (or links) to nasa or philips, stirling videos. please put them up..
Every now and then they show up on u tube, but i'm sure there are some realy good vids out there in the void or in someones collection, waiting to be re-discovered.

Vamoose, vidio OK, but to see it I'll have to wait until after the new year, when our public library opens again, so I can watch it on broadband,7:29 min is a bit long for dial up. Ian S C

Hay Ian,
Its definitely worth a watch!
Unfortunately its not technical footage, but at least its something of substance..
I wonder if there are some more comprehensive videos out there. I've read several science magazine articles on them and other documents, but there's nothing like a video to 'drive' it home.
