The killer robots and their ethics



The problem with research and development is that we are thinking things too much from our point. When somebody introduces something new, the answer is always "no way we must follow the traditional way". And the argument is that our grandparents made things like that. 

There are always people who are against new things and new ideas because the old rules fit them. Those people are generals who are sitting in headquarters. The people who might not like their role in the traditional military system are the men, who execute orders in 40 degrees temperature and dust. 

If that person shoots somebody who has no weapons, that means court-martial. In modern society, military men are facing psychological pressure in the field and at home. Growing recruitment problems are causing that the replacement for the human operators is looking for intensively. 

One answer for the problem is to outsource the operation to mercenaries. But if there are so-called illegal activities in those troops. Or convicted prisoners are participating in that operation that thing can cause political scandal. The other way to act is to outsource those military actions to robots. 

The thing is that we always forget that if we are not using some methods. There might be people who are using and pleasing those new methods welcome. 

The killer robots are inhumane weapons, but effective weapons are always inhumane. They fight against the humanitarian rules of the United Nations. So is it possible that any humanitarian aid will get to the hands of ordinary people in Pakistan or Afghanistan? There is a great possibility that humanitarian aid will go to the hands of combatants. Those targets that are destroyed should be confirmed being hands of the militants. 

The reason why those drones are used in killing operations is that closing those targets is difficult. If the terrorists get the warning, they will slip away. The problem with this kind of elimination is that there are no prisoners, and only prisoners can help to locate the training centers and supporters of the militants.

And another problem is that there are always neutral or civilian targets around those probably terror bases that are neutralized by using Hellfire missiles. The missile would make the same destructive and horrifying effect even it is shot from manned aircraft. The next step is the man-looking robots, which can take prisoners and avoid civilian casualties. 

So what is the answer to that problem? Let's start to develop SWAT robots, that can go inside the building. Those SWAT robots can operate in universal areas. And they can deliver to operational areas by using the space-launch systems. That means that the old-fashion robot aircraft are soon getting company from the man-looking robots that can go inside buildings and get prisoners.

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 ...
