Double star systems and planets

The image above this text portrays the double star, which members are real close to each other. And in that artist's impression, there is a bridge of gas between those stars. This kind of situation, where the double stars are near to each other is a really interesting possibility. There is a possibility that the planet would travel through that plasma-bridge. 

And then the energy of those stars hits the planet. If the pressure is hard, the planet would not explode, because the pressure of the ionized gas keeps it together. So that kind of case can cause that the planet can turn to an extremely small neutron star or even a black hole. And that kind of thing can make new ideas for exotic situations and hypothetical machines.

Plasma bridges and fusion tests

The plasma bridge can cause a similar effect to the planet, what is happening in the fusion tests, where the laser- or plasma rays are giving pressure to the glass balls, what is filling with the deuterium and tritium. If the plasma is used to give pressure, the ampule would be loaded with the opposite polar of electricity, and that thing would pull the high-energetic plasma over it. 

And that thing can increase the power of the laser rays, what are ignite the fusion in those tests. If the effect of the laser is boosted by using plasma, that would make it possible to increase the energy level of the fusion tests, which are created in the NIF (National Ignition Facility) what is operating by Lawrence Livermore National Laboratories. That kind of laboratory is used as well as for testing energy production but also in nuclear weapons simulations and a new type of fusion engine test.

Barnard's star b and life on super-earths

There have been found new exoplanet near Barnard's star, and that planet is one of the super-earths, which are found recently. So the confirmation of the existence of Barnard's star b is the end of the predictions, what began in the 1960s when astronomers noticed that the proper motion of Barnard's star was curving. And that thing means the new exoplanet has been found near our solar system. 

There is a possibility that on super-earths what size is about 2-4 times of Earth would have similar lifeforms, what are living on Earth. But those lifeforms would be a smaller size. We must realize that the creatures are forming on those planets are the result of the evolution of different planets. They are adapted perfectly in their ecosystem, which might be different, where we are living.
