About the Author

Whenever I read news about a new technology, the same questions come to mind. Will it really become usable? And if so, what is still missing?

Stardust Log is a blog for checking those questions one at a time.

About this blog

Stardust Log is a personal blog about science and technology and their history, written so that readers outside the field can follow it. It mainly covers quantum computing, nuclear fusion, semiconductors, AI, brain science, and space, and the question running through it is what still stands between a technology and practical use.

Who writes it

I'm Takeshi, a graduate student in science and engineering. I started this blog because I enjoy watching science and technology advance.

Sources

For articles and timelines, I go to primary sources wherever possible: original papers, patents, and conference records. Figures and dates carry a source, and each article lists its sources at the end.

Use of generative AI

Generative AI is used for the research and the writing of the articles. I choose the subjects and the structure, and I review the content before it is published.

When an error is found, I check it, correct it, and note the correction in the article. Please send corrections to the contact below.
