"In order to create life, you need both the right environmental conditions -- which includes liquid water -- and you need the building blocks from which life is built, which includes organics, " Squyres said.
Liquid-fuel reactors, such as MSRs, also offer inherent safety advantages: because the fuel is liquid, it expands when heated, thus slowing the rate of nuclear reactions and making the reactor self-governing.

In July 2012 Humala introduced a program to provide low-income Peruvians with discounted electricity and free liquid-natural-gas powered cooking stoves.
It's no surprise, then, that Alienware's newly-speced Area-51 7500 showed the videogame addicts over at IGN some of the best performance they've ever seen, and ran surprisingly quietly while doing so -- thanks in no small part to the liquid-cooling system.
They are sleek, and two phones--the Liquid and the neoTouch--are speedy with flashy graphics.
Meanwhile, what similar liquid-scanning technology has the TSA adopted in the six years since a would-be terrorist tried to blow up a plane with liquid explosives?

After orchestrating 2 million collisions between lead nuclei and protons, like the sort you see above, the collider's Compact Muon Solenoid group and researchers at MIT suspect that stray, linked pairs of gluon particles in the mix were signs of color-glass condensate, a currently theory-only form of matter that sees gluons travel in liquid-like, quantum-entangled waves.
ENGADGET: Large Hadron Collider may have produced a previously undetected form of matter
J-1's first stage, and Nissan will complete a liquid-methane-fuelled motor that it has in the works for the second stage.
Applying an electric charge to the liquid crystals causes the molecules they are made up of to realign themselves, altering the transparency of that layer. (The screens of portable computers work in a similar way.) The result is that a high-resolution negative copy of the moving image is formed in the liquid-crystal layer.
Liquid-fuelled rocket engines work by mixing the fuel (in this case kerosene) with liquid oxygen at high pressure.
"As foreign exposure to the Japanese market broadens, small-cap and less-liquid names are getting swept up, " says Lorne Steinberg, chief executive of Montreal-based Lorne Steinberg Wealth Management, a deep-value investor.
