Who We Are
Strange Power Inc was incorporated in 2025 to develop, produce, market, and operate fusion power plants based on thermonuclear plasma confinement by Magnetized Quark Nuggets (MQNs) containing strange, up, and down quarks.
MQN Collaboration is a virtual collective of scientists, explorers, and volunteers focusing on Magnetized Quark Nugget (MQN) Dark Matter.
Vision
Improve the chances for sustainable life on Earth.
Mission
Develop an economically advantageous and environmentally sustainable fusion energy system for terrestrial and space power and for interplanetary propulsion.
Problem
- Scientific – Dark matter has yet to be explained within or without the Standard Model of Particle Physics.
- Application – Earth needs more sustainable, economically advantageous, and carbon-neutral sources of energy. Mitigating the ultimate catastrophe – another extinction-level asteroid impact – requires more capable propulsion for spacecraft.
Approach
- Theoretical – MQNs meet theoretical requirements for dark matter. MQNs are consistent with the Standard Model which can guide experimental tests for, and applications of, MQN dark matter.
- Observational/Experimental – Non-meteorite impact craters and associated phenomena are consistent with MQN impacts. Proposed experiments to detect radio frequency emissions from MQNs transiting the magnetosphere should allow a systematic test of MQN dark matter.
- Applied – The magnetism of quark nuggets could be the key to an economically advantageous fusion reactor. In addition, MQN fusion 1) has no long-lived radioactive waste, 2) has minuscule amounts of fuel in the reactor at a time, and 3) automatically shuts down if there is any off-normal event. Therefore, it would be safer than nuclear fission power plants. Finally, MQN confined fusion could be the driver to propel interplanetary spacecraft for human exploration and colonization.
