The theory behind the rail gun has been around for a long time, in high school, I built a small one that left a dent in the ceiling. They just could never at the time figure out how to get the velocity they wanted. I'm glad they have working models now. Better equipment gives our troops an edge.
Not to kill but as a deterant. Thinking of what on Ohio class submarine can do would keep you up at night. Theres a boat that can make a country disappear in a puff of smoke.

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
