Recent studies of a model system—a fluid in a box heated from below and cooled from above—provide insights into the physics of turbulent thermal convection. But upscaling the system to extremely strong turbulence remains difficult.

Proponents of Project Plowshare argued that using nuclear explosives for peaceful means offered technical and economic advantages. But getting the biggest bang for the buck didn’t outweigh the varied environmental and sociopolitical costs of their use.
