Have also been wondering lately about what Lachlan would think of all the developments in the world today, wish he was still here, glad that you are!
Big news the other day was about a false alarm at the nuclear station..

''Tens of thousands of people have placed orders for free potassium iodide pills in the days following a false alert from the province about an incident at a nuclear plant in Pickering, Ont.
Sunday's alert, which was sent to mobile phones across Ontario, shocked those within a 10-kilometre radius of the Durham Region plant and even those living farther away.
About an hour after the 7:24 a.m. ET alert, Ontario Power Generation (OPG), the plant's operator, tweeted without explanation that the warning "was sent in error." The Ontario government also later acknowledged the mistake, blaming human error, and issued an apology.
Although the mistake left some people fuming, others stepped up their planning for a real emergency.
Between Sunday morning and Monday afternoon, 32,388 orders were placed for potassium iodide tablets through Durham Region's Prepare To Be Safe website, which is jointly managed by the City of Toronto and OPG.''

I think he would have been keenly interested, nearly 13 years since his passing, in the announcement this week of a breakthrough in nuclear fusion. Plasmonic lasers use perovskite crystals.

The perovskite-related phase Ca3Nb2O8, when grown as single crystals from a calcium vanadate flux, incorporates a small amount of vanadium from the fl…
Discussion in this thread included tritium, tokamak reactors, lasers and so much more. Did Lachlan Cranswick contribute in some way to the breakthrough in nuclear fusion?
RIP, Lachlan Cranswick.
Even after all this time i still think of Lachlan, thank you for posting!I think he would have been keenly interested, nearly 13 years since his passing, in the announcement this week of a breakthrough in nuclear fusion. Plasmonic lasers use perovskite crystals.

Thank you for posting Lachlan's final resting place. I noticed this nearby historical site, and wonder if this is a place where his interest in science began as a child. Remember his mini steam engine? This seems perfect.
