Nerd Word of the Week : Flux Capacitor

Flux Capacitor


Flux Capacitor - noun. - The very thing that "makes time travel possible".

   Seated between the headrests in the DeLorean DMC-12 in a film triology of epic epicness called :
"Back to the Future". According to Doctor Emmett Brown, on November 5, 1955, the idea of the flux capacitor was conceived after a blow to the head. "Doc" had been hanging a clock in his bathroom, when he slipped and hit his head on the sink.



      30 years of his life, Dr. Brown committed to his work for the Flux Capacitor. Although, we do not have much of an explanation of how it works, we do know that it works, and only works because of the make of the DeLorean DMC-12. The stainless steal body of the DeLorean helps the "flux dispersal" according to the "Doc" in the film. 

     The Flux Capacitor requires 1.21 gigawatts of electrical power. Once paired up with the DeLorean hitting the speed of 88mph, you have yourself a time traveling cocktail. Feel free to travel to the past or future, but be cautioned and aware of recent time traveling activity, "Doc" has stated that a paradox, in time travel, could cause a chain reaction that would unravel the very fabric of the space-time continuum and destroy the entire universe!"
