“I think I should do my job and you should do yours your job. What have you found on my case?”

“Inspector, you know we need more time for the DNA and hair analysis.”

Reflected off the chandelier globe, Haruto saw on the large display a colored schematic. Teller-Ulam Hydrogen Device. On the top was an egg shape with concentric layers of different colors. Right below that was a larger green sphere.

<<new paragraph here>> “Two-stage hydrogen bomb. Building it is many times more complicated than building a simple plutonium fission device. <<continue into next paragraph, ie no new paragraph>> Ilana put the electronic pointer on the inner layer of the top eccentric sphere. “When the conventional explosives around the plutonium egg explode, they implode the egg and nuclear fission occurs. We put tritium-deuterium gas in the center of the egg to boost its explosive yield. You’d think adding tritium is simple, but it took us seven underwater tests to get it right.”

Seiko shook his head. “No, no. Please remember, we crammed many different cameras into the two eyes. Yes, in operation, you will see the eyeball cameras rotating in different , non-synchronized directions. But when the robot is with his commander, eye motions are very humanlike.”

p. 375 aerogel… halfway down the paragraph:

to 99% of the original gel can now be filled with air. Not only is it very light, it is filled with zillions of nooks and crannies, that is, there is a huge surface area there now. Impregnate the aerogel with the necessary catalysts – “electrocatalysts” – required for the chemical-to-electricity reaction, and now you have in the tiny space of a cubic centimeter, perhaps over a hundred square meters of electrode.
