Colonizing red dwarfs

Colonizing red dwarfs

Maybe in the distant future, we are colonizing the solar system of Proxima Centauri. Red dwarfs are not the stars that are seeming suitable places for the creation of intelligent lifeforms. The planets that are in the habitable zone of the red dwarfs are locked. That means the dayside of the planet is very hot, and the nightside is frozen.  And if there is some kind of oceans on those planets. 

There is the possibility that some kind of algae is living in those oceans. But those organisms can benefit the volcanic temperature of those planets. The lack of endemic intelligent life will make the red dwarf an interesting place for colonies. The tiny micro-organisms cause threats to infections and epidemics in the colonies. So that's why the sterilization of the people who work outside the safehouses is an extremely important thing. 

There is the reason why that kind of locked world is an interesting place for a colony. If there are not very many clouds on the atmosphere of those planets. The locked position of the planet offers a very good place for the benefit the solar energy. 



When the solar power systems are installed on the dayside of the locked planet. That offers the position that those systems where they can produce energy all the time. The heat of red dwarf can also benefit in power production. The creation of energy is in a vital role in every kind of colonization projects. The energy is needed for greenhouses for making the food and other kinds of purposes. 

The solar panels must equip with blinders. That is turning to shadow the silicon layer of the solar panel when the red dwarf erupts. That denies the overload of the network.

So if we are thinking about the colonization of red dwarfs. We must realize that the solar systems of those stars. Are more narrow than the solar systems of the stars like the sun. The entire solar systems of the red dwarfs like Gliese 581 are inside the distance. Of the trajectory of planet Mercury. If planet Mercury orbits that star. So traveling between planets in the Gliese 581 system is much easier than traveling between planets in our solar system.

 And during the colonization process, we must realize that we can benefit the entire solar system. Solar power stations can install on the locked rocky worlds. Which are locked and turns always the same side to the star. And in the ocean worlds could grow food like algae and fish. The energy can transport between planets by using laser- or microwave rays. But we must realize that the distance between Earth and the closest red dwarf, Proxima Centauri is really big. And at first, we must reach the Proxima system.

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 ...
