“…A such huge temperature is very very difficult to be achieved on the Earth right now (Petrescu et al, 2016a;Petrescu and Calautit, 2016;Petrescu, 2012a). At one keV is necessary a temperature of 10 million 0 .…”

In the nuclear fusion process that is permanently produced in the stars (suns) there is a thermonuclear reaction that uses as the main raw material the very first isotope of hydrogen, namely the Protium. This process is possible due to the huge temperatures and the unimaginably high pressures existing inside a star. At very high temperatures and pressures, matter begins to break even at the nuclear level. The nucleons split off and then reunited to form other types of nuclei. If it was initially thought that temperatures of tens or even hundreds of millions of degrees would be needed, today it is already proven that a minimum needed is about 40 trillion degrees. Such huge temperature is very difficult to be achieved on the Earth right now. For this reason, a compensatory solution would be the production of the nuclear fusion reaction with accelerated particles. For this reason, we want to express a major idea, namely the shift to the next hydrogen isotope, 3H, Tritium, which is much less stable compared to the first two, with its widespread use for the achievement of nuclear-merging energy, here on the Earth. We can't achieve such temperatures yet, on earth, in safety, but especially to keep them. Only through dangerous bombs they can produce and maintain. Then the only method of achieving nuclear fusion power on the ground remains the use of particle accelerators. For this reason, modern physics power stations must look like or contain a nuclear particle accelerator. Whether we produce the cold or hot fusion reaction, we will need at least one particle accelerator. For a long time, I thought that Tokamak-type installations that have a toroidal shape represent the optimal solution for modern fusion power plants. Today, however, we doubt this, because the achieved tor has a small radius of action (the diameter of the tor is too small). But that is not the main issue that this paper proposes. In this study we want to propose the transition to experimentation of nuclear fusion energy, by exploiting (use) of tritium, namely the triton. The idea is to use triton nuclear fuel. But not the triton resulting from the presence of deuterium, but only pure triton, obtained from other methods than deuterium reactions. We propose, therefore, the elimination of deuterium as fuel and the use of Triton in its place.

“…Using a technique called microspectro flame photometry, analyzed the visual pigments and various eye photosensitivity reef fish to determine how and what fish see. They measured the wavelengths of light reflected offshore reefs form in order to calculate "the average colour of it" (Petrescu and Calautit, 2016a;Petrescu et al, 2016).…”

With a 361 million square Km surface and a volume of 1370 million of cubic kilo, world seas and oceans have represented and still remain the privileged space for living species evolution. Other than being the 70% of the Earth surface, water environment, contrary to the terrestrial one where life essentially develops in 2 dimensions, is a 3D fully volume for leaving. This circumstance makes the under water world a huge space of future mankind exploration. Modern man thinks to already know most of the secrets of the universe, although it was not able to process a planet to make it livable (a new planet of reserve), or at least to discover the secrets of the universe or of the small universe, or those secrets from the depths of the ocean planetary. Under water exploration, by facing some of the most amazing creatures of the sea and by understanding their unique evolutionary path, improves our knowledge of life evolution while clarifying the impact of the global climate changes on these delicate ecosystems. This work presents some considerations related to the seas and oceans possible future mankind interactions with the "Blue Planet". Retrieving materials and energy from underwater world is discussed.
