SPI Recon Borescope: Explosive Atmosphere Certified Inspection Solution
In late July we sent the Recon Borescope to get the ultimate test of reliability and safety. The MIL-STD810G certification was specifically performed to demonstrate the ability of the Recon to operate in the fuel-air explosive atmospheres without causing ignition. The Recon was put through rigorous testing in multiple scenarios of different types and intensities […]
Identify Castings Flaws with the RECON Borescope
In April of 2021 Audi discovered cracks within its engine. This manufacturing defect developed during the casting process & caused cracks to run down the surface of the sixth cylinder’s bore. These small defects can cause engine oil leakage and catastrophic damage to the expensive, twin turbo-charged V8 engine. Not only do these cracks permanently […]
Making Fuel-Efficient Space Travel Possible
Aerospace Research Develops Revolutionary Working Model for Rocket Engines “The rotating detonation engine field is still in its infancy. We have tons of data about these engines, but we don’t understand what is going on.” Research refining this idea remains ongoing, aiding to increase our confidence in the future of this alternative engine set for […]
The Future Lies Beyond the Final Frontier: Exploring Space Exploration
Asteroid Mining May Be Our Solution to Global Scarcity We’re running out of stuff. It’s impossible to ignore; every year news sources bombard us with news of our poor situation. But picture this: countless troves of precious treasure just above us, able to solve all our problems, should we just reach out and grab them. […]

Solar Spy Drone – How to Stay Airborne for a Year
Consumer grade drones have a flight time measured in minutes. Some more advanced drones have flight times measured in hours, and even advanced military drones can barely be measured in days; two days for any drone, no matter the technology, would be pushing it. However, 2019 could be the year that changes all that as […]
Hawaii’s Ambition to Run on Completely Renewable Energy: A Note for Other States
As Hawaii is Working Towards Incorporating Solar and Wind Energy on a Mass Scale, Other States are Watching to See if They Can Keep the Electricity Grid Stable Hawaii is already leading the country in almost every category when it comes to generating renewable energy and their sources; this is a big deal as the […]
Geothermal Power – Renewable Energy or Ticket to Destruction
Geothermal Power generation or using the heat from the core of the earth to create renewable energy with little to no waste, even though it was created in the 1960’s, still sounds like science fiction. Power generation plants that use heat from the core of the earth to spin turbines that generate power. Quite a […]
Solar Power: Harnessing the Energy of the Sun
Solar power and renewable energy has been buzzwords for over the past 2 decades in some circles. And why not when we can witness some real effects of global climate change like sea water levels rising and polar icecaps melting. With this real evidence of climate change, why are we not already changing our ways […]
