Been working on getting the new ILIS tank prototype assembly figured out with a mesh liner. Now that I've got something plausible, I've begun a new fueling/degassing operation with a new emitter and the mesh liner. Aiming for a new thruster test this week, updates to come soon!

My daughter has been interested in rocks and minerals (and I have gotten into mineral collecting myself), so I decided to do some crystal growing at home as a fun educational experiment. Currently 1 week into this copper crystal, at 40mA, 0.5V in a 50g/L copper sulfate solution.
