China tested a space-capable hypersonic missile.

Hypersonic weapons are the new threat in space. The weapon itself is the warhead that is designed to glide to the target using gentler trajectories than a conventional warhead. The hypersonic glider is a miniature shuttle that can return to base if it is not used in operations. The gentle trajectory makes it possible that the nuclear weapon can detonate in front of the tunnels or even inside them. And that thing makes it possible to use smaller warheads against hard targets.

The scramjet technology makes those weapons even more dangerous. The thing that is forgotten in hypersonic missiles is that the same vehicles can use as independent missiles. Or they can install it in the nose of the ICBM missile. That means that the scramjet-driven cruise missile can shoot to orbital- or suborbital trajectory by using a conventional rocket. Then that scramjet-driven missile can dive through the atmosphere and start the hypersonic flight against its target.

The hypersonic missile can use against all targets. Ships, ground installations, and aircraft can be targets of that kind of missiles. The atmosphere flying hypersonic missile can use rapid air turbine for making the electricity for the microwave system that can plow the road ahead of the missile. And that kind of thing can make those systems even more deadly than people believe. The microwave system makes scramjet-driven missiles hard to destroy. Because a high-power microwave system can destroy incoming air defense missiles.

The hypersonic missile can use nuclear or conventional warheads. But the kinetic energy of the scramjet-driven missiles is enormous. When over a 1000 kilogram vehicle hits to target with the speed that is between Mach 8-12 that thing is devastating itself.

The speed of those missiles is much higher than the depleted uranium ammunition of the famous GAU-8 cannon. And the weight of ammunition is much higher than the ammunition of GAU-8. That machine cannon destroys the main battle tank with one shot. So everybody can imagine what the 1000 kilogram ammunition makes when it strikes to target.

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. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field. An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate. AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru
