RAILGUNS

The topic for this morning is RAILGUNS. That is, guns that fire ferrous projectiles using only the power of electricity. And hopefully at massively hypersonic velocities. Here are some interesting sites about the current research and technologies of railguns. Bear in mind that in 19999 they were basically declared a humbug and it was said that they would always take too much power to be worth the return or to be portable. Both of these claims will turn out to bve ABSOLUTELY wrong by 2015.
