I like the staggered layers to prevent a ‘gap’ around the door

Continuous "fusion", are you sure about that?

Need more info on this "special bearing"

Kyle Hill just did. Video about that door and what was behind it. https://youtu.be/R0H-NWk_FDI

Specifically, it was the door to the Rotating Target Neutron Source-II facility at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory.

Now that is a big door.

Is that the Tron door?

Fusion or fission? Are you telling me they had nuclear fusion in 1979, or do I just have a lock of understanding somewhere?
AbiQuinn
I'm honestly not sure myself but I think fusion isn't the tricky bit, the bit they struggle with is making it a cost-effective energy source
AbiQuinn
https://www.osti.gov/biblio/6816875-rtns-ii-rotating-target-neutron-source-ii-operational-summary suggests that yes they do mean fusion.

The door is cool, but I want to see this bearing.

Anyone who has seen Tron will remember this door.

Have you seen the door at N.O.R.A.D? It weighs 25T and is made of solid steel!

The place I work in has an old bank vault. I was staggered by how easy it was to move the door of the vault.

Blow the hinge then pull it out
DuineSgith
Blow the Hinge, you say?
Smacketywack
Blowing the hinge on a vault door is the one way to make sure it’ll never open.

I don't think anybody would be playing music in that room. It's very serious dealing with radiation and music would be a distraction

You can tell by the way I push this vault, Imma fusion man, no time to talk.

Opening the door is its own deterrent. It's a mistake you only make once.

if I was the CO of the base...I would fully expect to take command with one in place allready. I mean the joke is totally worth it!

Our dog was getting in the garbage so we put one of these on the cabinet. She learned to undo it. Had to get one with a sliding cover.

Ah - a core memory activated. These are the most safety of all safety latches.

It’s possible Dr. Baines’ research at Encom led to the frickin’ laser beams Dr. Evil deployed to his sharks

So your saying it's different technology from the moon laser developed by Alan Parsons?

Still the most visually striking movie I know of, and still one of my absolute favourites.
SirRichfield
Also the music! Thinking, I would've been OK if TRON Legacy would've been another Interstellar 5555. No words, just visuals and Daft Punk.

Someone needs to make this clip but the dude explodes into upvotes or downvotes.

@BabyFarkMcGeeZax, your skills would be awesome in this endeavor.

Whoah, I didn’t have many toys, but I had this one, I thought it was so cool, probably still would if I had it here to fidget with.

This was my dream present when I was a kid. Asked for it every year. Never got it, but prob for the best. Still really cool though!

I had to save up money for mine over six months. The day I got to buy it was glorious. It really did rock. Better than Grayskull for sure.
NomDeImguerre
As an adult, just get it. Give that gift to your inner child. You'll be smiling for days.

I hate to break it to you…. I got it as a kid and it was everything you imagined. The sign that flipped down with guns inside….

Though I got mine used, it was nearly 100% complete. It was GLORIOUS!
