Airships can be used to test self-operating robots, which can fix damages independently.

Airships can be used to test self-operating robots, which can fix damages independently.

The problems with airships are similar to problems of spacecraft, and one of them is repairments after damages. The major problem is that both systems are dependent on the gas, what is inside them. If the spacecraft would be damaged, the gas would leak to space.

And if the airship would lose too much gas, it would drop from the skies so the airships can be used as the simulation of the space stations and spacecraft. By using airships is possible to simulate and test technologies, what can be used in long term spaceflights. Also in the long-term operations of the unmanned recon airships, what must fix their leaks and other damages independently.

The robot spiders, what are created for fixing holes of the hybrid airships are fascinating tools and one thing what the new high-altitude hybrid airships can serve is the demonstration and test platform for technology, what might be used in futuristic space programs for fixing holes on the outer layer the spacecraft. Or why not those tools cannot be used also inside the spacecraft for helping crew and fixing problems and clean the layers.

The thing, how those spiders are moving on the layer of the airship, can transfer to the spacecraft and space stations very easily. In the space, those robot spiders, what is looking like a nozzle of the hoover can move outside the space station by using magnet rolls, which makes them move smoothly over the layer.

And those robots can use many tools for searching the holes. The systems can use vertical and horizontal cameras, microscopes, scanners, and lasers for locating the exhausting gas or anomalies in the surface, and those systems can simply weld those holes or other ways to say, fill the holes by using metal. The artificial intelligence of the craft's main computer would communicate and control those repairment robots, so those units don't need extremely high power computers.

The planned structure of the spacecraft is two-layer structure, where is bright light inside it, and also the light-cells can detect the damage. The same structure can be used in the airships. The idea is that those robots would fix the holes before the gas is exhausting. And as you see, the same technology can be used in HAA (High Altitude Airship) projects. In those systems, highly advanced artificial intelligence would make repairments of the structure automatical and that means that the crew must not take part in this kind of actions.

When we are thinking about the shape of those robots, they could have small rockets, which allows them to fly across the spacecraft. Those maneuver rockets are used in all spacecraft, and if those robot repairment tools are equipped with that kind of system, they can operate more sophisticated than using only the magnets. And they can fill their tanks by using ventilations, what is installed on the certain points of the outer layer of the spacecraft.

In the atmosphere, those robots can use quadcopter technology, which makes possible to keep them operation even if the touch from the outer layer of the airship would be slipped because of wind. In the space projects, those robots would be separated into the inner and outer "servants".

The "inside servant" or robot what operates inside the capsule would be a quadcopter, what is equipped with necessary tools. And "outside servant" would be the robot, what has special systems for surviving in the space, and those robots would not even need to come in the crew area.

Also, this kind of systems might use wireless loading for batteries, but the backup system could be the fuel-cell based system, which guarantees the power supply in most of the situations. That thing is important in the long-term space operations, where is no space for unnecessary parts, and that means those robots must not be lost during the missions.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials.
