Israelis are going through all the grief that we could read in memoirs of Germans in the 1930s, while Germans keep pretending like everything is fine in Israel and all the depravity against Palestinians on display is justified. It isn't. All decent people know it's not.

Und jetzt nochmal auf Deutsch. Da ist der erste Prototyp für Elektroautos ohne Lithium. Es war seit 2 Jahren absehbar, jetzt ist es da. Normalerweise hat das Auto 20 oder 30 kWh, mit Natrium Akku hat es 25 kWh ... und lässt sich in 10 Minuten von 20% auf 70% laden.

I have not merely told you so, I couldn't shut up about it for years. It's an EV with sodium ion batteries. The capacity of 25 kWh is not huge, but the regular capacity of this model with lithium is either 20 kWh or 31 kWh. But this one is faster charging and better in winter.

The pack energy density of 120 Wh/kg (cells have 140Wh/kg) is just a sliver below the 2020 Tesla Model 3 LFP pack, which had 125 Wh/kg. If you build the same 54 kWh pack with sodium, it would weigh 450kg, just 18 kg more than the LFP pack. But it can charge to 80% in 15 minutes.

And there we go. First EVs to use CATLs sodium ion batteries. It's not surprising. The energy density (both mass and volume) is comparable to 2021 Tesla Model 3 LFP battery packs.
Our first sodium-ion battery will power the Chery EV models. The award-winning technology breaks the bottleneck of limited raw materials and provides a cost-effective solution.

Tesla fans will have to be strong over this one. But the 4680, as a cylindrical cell, simply isn't the most volume or weight efficient form factor. It wastes space and mass. It remains to be seen if increased stiffness of the 4680 is enough of an advantage.

You can now buy sodium ion batteries on Alibaba from small, completely unknown companies. Anything from 18650 to 46145 cylindrical to large 173*71*204mm prismatic cells. Sold for ~$120-$140 per kWh. They do seem to ship and actually arrive, even in Germany.

The only real miss today was failure to reignite the Raptor engines (as failures in Super Heavy and not attempted in Starship), but this did not cause any disruption in the rest of the test program. So, it's basically a success. You can learn much less from fireballs.

Starship burnt up. Super Heavy crashed. It’s easy to see failure. If you want, go ahead. But this is failing forward at its finest. One of SpaceX’s secret sauces is an acceptance of failure as a means to an end. We are much nearer that end, rapid and fully reusable launch, today.

Deswegen fliegen keine Raketen von SpaceX, die US Astronauten kommen alle nur mit den Russen ins All, die Elektroautos haben wir uns auch alle nur eingebildet und die Autobauer schauen auf VW, wenn es um E-Autos geht. (Ja, was er hier macht ist großer Mist. Aber "schon immer?")

Elektrolyte seems to be a polymer to compensate the inevitable volume changes of the anode material (whatever it is they are using). It's neither a gas nor a liquid, therefore "condensed matter physics". I really wished CATL was less cryptic in their descriptions.

Die Preise für Lithium erreichen derzeit ungekannte Höhen. Mein letzter Artikel dazu war im September, als der Allzeitrekord eingestellt wurde. Seitdem haben sich die Preise verdoppelt, der größte Teil des Anstiegs im Dezember und Januar. Die Sache wird langsam sehr ernst.

And that's why sodium ion batteries must become the mainstay of the battery industry. No lithium, no cobalt, no nickel, no copper. They need no rare metal ores that must be mined at low concentration, causing all this destruction. And they are good enough for the job.

To manufacture each EV battery, you must process 25,000 pounds of brine for the lithium 30,000 pounds of ore for the cobalt 5,000 pounds of ore for the nickel, 25,000 pounds of ore for copper Diging up 500,000 pounds of the earth's crust For just - one - battery.

New sodium ion batteries everywhere, from companies you (or at least I) never heard of. Don't tell me it's just a fad. With the price gouging of the lithium industry, this is the only viable battery technology going forward where cost and reliability of supply are important.

In CIBF, I felt a relatively cautious attitude of quite a few Chinese #battery companies towards #sodium ion batteries in #ElectricVehicles applications. “Crossing the river by touching the stones” is what I heard most among them. #battchat

@SciGuySpace It's worth considering that the problems of landing a Falcon 9 almost exclusive came down to a) insufficient roll-control due to lack of fins and b) the necessity of dialing-in the hover-slam landing due to lack of sufficiently deep throttling of the Merlin 1D engines.

@Fischblog Der Pressesprecher von der Rocketfactory Augsburg war in einer Email auch irritiert darüber, dass ich seine Arbeit für den Verband der Homöpatischen Ärzte öffentlich thematisiert habe. Manche Menschen haben echt sehr komische Erwartungshaltungen.

@dm_ms Natürlich ist Omikron sehr viel milder. Das gegenteil zu behaupten ist reine Propaganda und gelingt auch nur, wenn man die über hundertmal so hohen Infektionszahlen verschweigt und nur die dreimal so hohen Todeszahlen nennt. Was soll das?

Ich schäme mich für nicht, das Deutschland in den 1930er und 40er Jahren getan hat, weil weder ich noch heute aktive Politiker zu der Zeit am Leben waren. Aber ich schäme mich täglich für das, was Deutschland nicht für die Ukraine tut. Wir können etwas machen und tun es nicht.

That $74/kWh figure includes (with the discount!) about $20/kWh worth of lithium carbonate (about 700 grams). Which should tell you how cheap it has become to make battery cells these days. Now imagine not needing lithium, lithium electrolyte salts, graphite and copper.

@CarloMasala1 Laut russischen(!) Angaben (Girkin) sollen die Ukrainer Truppen in Zaporizhizhia (also nördlich von Melitopol) zusammengezogen haben. Mal schauen ob daraus was wird.

Girkin with a brief frontline update stating Ukrainian forces are accumulating in Zaporizhziha direction. Everywhere else, Russians are in passive defence and the Bakmut offensive has practically zero changes of breaking through Ukrainian defence.

@BellikOzan @DorianNo5 I always got the impression of a toxic culture that weeds out anyone even remotely critical at Arianespace when I've dealt with their officials ... and I could never talk to anyone not supervised by a PR person. And I don't get the impression that has changed yet.

#global #solar installations according to @BloombergNEF are likely to hit 390GW this year, up over 40% on last year. What this means is that over the last 18 months we have installed as much #solar as were done in the previous 5 years!!

@culpable_mink @Cosmic_Andrew1 Not only that. They assumed that the launch price would have to come up to ~$120million per launch. They were absolutely cocksure about that when I talked to Ariane guys. Despite all the obvious technical and economic advantages of the F9 construction.
