Flash Drives A common property of mass storage systems based on magnetic or optic technology is that physical motion‚ such as spinning disks‚ moving read/write heads‚ and aiming laser beams‚ is required to store and retrieve data. This means that data storage and retrieval is slow compared to the speed of electronic circuitry. Flash memory technology has the potential of alleviating this drawback. In a flash memory system‚ bits are stored by sending electronic signals directly to the storage medium

Magnetohydrodynamic drive In concept‚ MHD is attractive because it offers a propulsion system that requires no moving parts. It works on a principle similar to that of an electric motor or generator; that is‚ passing an electrical current through a magnetic field creates a force. In an MHD propulsion system‚ a magnetic field is created within the hull‚ and sea water is used to conduct the electric current‚ as shown in the illustrations accompanying this story. The underlying principle is known
