Solovetsky Monastery

One very interesting thing about the holy places on Earth is how those places were sacred? How the people, who decided the sanctify someplace made that decision? When we are looking at things like the Solovetsky Monastery(1) that place is about 30 kilometers over the White Sea. The Monastery is founded in 1436 by three Orthodox monks Herman of Solovki (?-1479) and Sabbatius (Savvaty)of Solovki) (?-1436)(3), Zosimas of Solovki (?-1478)(4), and Sabbattius might see the monastery ready. The thing is that those men were hermits, who were looking for peace, but the question is how those men choose the Solovki Islands for the place of their monastery? Was some saint live on that island?

And who was that saint? If we are returning to Heligoland (5) that name is translated to "The Land of Saint" or "Sacred land". (6)We might think one thing, what might be very interesting. Somebody would start the journey from Heligoland to Norway and follow the coast of that country, that person would sooner or later reach the White Sea coast. If our traveler would travel by following the coast, that person would reach the place, what is called "Papinsaari" or "Priests island".

There are 40 kilometers to the Solovetsky. The reason why I believe that traveler who would travel from Heligoland without the map or GPS would travel by following the coastline because there is water, what our traveler can use for drinking. There is a possibility that our travelers will use fire to separate salt from water, but the natural rivers are offering freshwater.

There is also fish for food but those persons can also use algae for food. But could some saint make that travel in real life? Maybe that person would travel from Heligoland to dying in the Solvetsky Islands, and the sky was probably very beautiful, because of the northern lights. But what was the reason, why that person went to that place? Did that person escape something? Or is this only my imagination?

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...

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real?

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real? Is TR-3B (0) "Black Triangle UFO" or is it only the piece of paper?  The study project, what is used to create advanced ideas for use of the nuclear-powered aircraft. Or is it the study project or black budget aircraft, where lost 2,3 trillion dollars (1)of the stealth bomber were gone. In this text is things, that might seem very difficult to accept, and when we are thinking about things like doubling the object or making it smaller by using huge layers of energy, nothing denies to test those things. But were those tests successful, there is no data about that in public Internet, so we must say that things like doubling the human or aircraft can be tested, but the results can be unknown.  But in the source two is the tale, what seems like impossible, those men, who got Noble Prize put at first time one atom to the box, and hit it with photon one photon in the box and hit it with t...

The interesting coincidence between USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862)

Image I The interesting coincidence between  USS Sea Shadow (1982) and CSS Virginia (1862) Far away from its time is the thing, that you might notice when you see those two images. The upper one (Image I) is portraying the modern naval USS Sea Shadow (IX-529)(1) experimental Stealth ship, which was created by Lockheed-Martin, and the image below (Image II) is portraying the CSS Virginia (2), the ironclad from the Civil War Era. The thing why the hull of the CSS Virginia, what is ironclad from 1862 is that the ammunition of the cannons would not transfer their impact energy to the hull of the ship. And the reason why Sea Shadows hull has this form is that it should point the radar echo away from the hull.  The thing that I must say that CSS Virginia is far ahead its time because that structure is effective against the explosive ammunition, and the slanting armor of tanks like T-34 and Sherman have made them effective. But for some reason, the use of slanting ...
