Space X will launch a Dragonfly probe to Titan.


"Artist’s impression of Dragonfly soaring over the dunes of Saturn’s moon Titan. NASA has authorized the mission team to proceed on development toward a July 2028 launch date.

The Dragonfly is one of the most daring missions in history. The AI-controlled quadcopter will be launched to Saturn's moon Titan, and there. That probe will research the distant moon. Its atmosphere. And its hydrocarbon lakes. The Dragonfly itself is an interesting concept. If the image above really portrays a Dragonfly. That probe is like a quadcopter. And it seems to have four Kamov-type propellers that give it higher speed than traditional propellers. 

In those propellers, the system tilts the rotor's edge against each other. And that makes it possible to aim the thrust. Those propellers give that system extremely good maneuverability. 

Those propellers are seen in Kamov helicopters. The engine system gets its energy from nuclear batteries or isotope generators (RTG). The thing is that the Titan atmosphere makes it possible to use wind energy on that strange word. 

The Dragonfly concept is suitable for next-generation manned helicopters. The high-speed quadcopter designs can be useful in many missions. Electric engine-operating quadcopters can be a low-noise application. The turbine-based hybrid system allows this system can travel fast between targets, and near the destination, the system can turn to use electric engines. 

If those electric systems and cabins are protected against pressure the quadcopter can also operate underwater. And those systems can give new abilities. For civil and military operations. The underwater-capable quadcopter can fix undersea cables and check structures above and below the surface. The same system can transport military operators to the coastline underwater and then fly them to the building's roofs.



The main difference. Between the FVR-90 hybrid drone that you can see above. And supersonic versions are that. The supersonic versions can pull those quadrotors in the structure. That means the side bodies are a bit longer and the craft's shape is tuned to fit supersonic flight with possible stealth capacities. 

In some visions, the next-generation high-speed jet fighters are quadcopters that can have high-power jet engines. Or, quadcopters can raise those jet aircraft up from the ground. At the right altitude, they can drop the aircraft which can accelerate its speed. But those systems can have internal quadcopter structures. 

The system in the lower image might look a little bit like the jet-engined version. But in that jet-engined version, the main propeller is replaced by a jet engine and high-speed abilities are better. 

Those high-speed systems can use the quadcopter mode in low-speed, low-noise flight. Those quadrotors can be systems that the aircraft can pull while it travels fast. Or they can be small independent operating helicopters that can rise and transport aircraft away from city areas. Then those systems can be separated. And then. Those systems can travel away from the city area and start their jet engines. Those radical concepts will lower the flight noise.

The new thermal system can turn waste heat into electricity.


"A recent study shows tungsten disilicide’s potential in efficient heat-to-electricity conversion, promising advances in thermoelectric technology. Credit: SciTechDaily.com"  (ScitechDaily, Clean Energy Breakthrough Turns Waste Heat Into Usable Electricity)

"Researchers have demonstrated a new method for converting heat to electricity using tungsten disilicide, showing potential for more efficient thermoelectric devices that could revolutionize energy efficiency in various applications." (ScitechDaily, Clean Energy Breakthrough Turns Waste Heat Into Usable Electricity)

"Thermoelectric materials, which convert heat into electricity, play a crucial role in capturing waste heat and transforming it into usable power. These materials are particularly beneficial in industries and vehicles where engines produce significant waste heat, enhancing energy efficiency by generating additional electricity. They also hold promise for portable power applications, such as remote sensors and satellites, where traditional power sources may not be feasible." (ScitechDaily, Clean Energy Breakthrough Turns Waste Heat Into Usable Electricity)

The ability to turn waste heat into electricity increases the efficiency of power plants. Those things can also increase the efficiency of solar panels because they can collect heat from their black shells and then turn it into electricity. This kind of system can decrease the need for fuel in power stations. But this kind of system does not create electricity from the emptiness. 



"This paper is the first direct demonstration of the transverse thermoelectric generation in WSi2, and the results could pave the way for more efficient thermoelectric devices. Credit: Ryuji Okazaki from Tokyo University of Science, Japan"(ScitechDaily, Clean Energy Breakthrough Turns Waste Heat Into Usable Electricity)


They turn IR- or thermal energy into electricity. And that makes them a good system to collect electricity from places like fusion platforms. That thing makes it possible to create systems that are making fusion systems like Tokamaks more efficient. When the thermoelectric elements turn IR radiation into electricity they take heat energy out from the shell. And maybe those systems can make it possible to create a fusion reactor that uses less energy than it delivers. 

The problem with traditional heat control systems is that they bind thermal energy into a medium like water. But the problem is where that water flow conducts energy. The heat exchangers are effective tools if there is a lake or river where that system can dump energy. The possibility to transform thermal energy into electricity makes it possible to create a system that transports thermal energy out from the system using radio waves or laser beams.

Those systems can revolutionize aviation and space technology. It can transport thermal energy out from the small size nuclear reactors in the form of electromagnetic radiation. The system can transport thermal energy out from high-temperature layers like from rocket engines. The system can also used to decrease temperatures from the shells of hypersonic aircraft and conduct electricity to plasma jet engines. 


The heat is the problem with hypersonic flight. But what if the system can turn heat into electricity and transport that electricity out from the shell? 

The system can used in new ways to decrease the temperature of the machines and make high-temperature systems more energy efficient. The blast furnaces can take thermal energy into use. Those systems can be used to collect energy from the small probes that can dive deep into the solar atmosphere. The solar panels would be effective. And they are in use at Parker Probe. 

But the ability to turn thermal energy into electricity allows to creation of probes that can go closer than Parker. The solar panels or their wires can melt even if they are in the vacuum thermos layer. The ability to close the probe into the thermal protecting layers makes it possible to transport the probe closer to the sun than ever. 

But the system that turns thermal energy into electricity without in-between. The new thermoelectric system can make new possibilities. For example the hypersonic flight. The ability to take thermal energy out from the shell by turning it into electricity makes it possible to create systems that cool the layers in fast-moving aircraft. 

The system can transport electricity to the engines where the electric system can increase the power of the engine. The idea is that electric arcs can raise the temperature of burning fuel. But. the system can also feed energy to things like plasma jet engines. That can make the aircraft more effective than ever before.

Drones have new missions. From Jupiter's moons to a depth of oceans.


"In the Sensing With Independent Micro-Swimmers (SWIM) concept, illustrated here, dozens of small robots would descend through the icy shell of a distant moon via a cryobot – depicted at left – to the ocean below. The project has received funding from the NASA Innovative Advanced Concepts program. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech" (ScitechDaily, Could NASA’s Tiny Robots Discover Life on Europa?)

The most impressive mission for drones or independently operating miniature submarines will be the search for life from Jupiter's moon Europa. The thing is that also two other large moons, Ganymede and Callisto could have similar oceans under their icy surfaces. 

And the third Galilean moon, Io has sulfur volcanoes that are also interesting geological objects. But the main object for that mission could be Europa, the icy moon with icy geysers. The probe can slip the small submarine into those geysers and maybe they can reach the ocean under that icy surface. The done can communicate with the surface unit by using sonars. 



"After completing testing, the Robotic Servicing of Geosynchronous Satellites (RSGS) payload resides in the cryogenic thermal vacuum chamber at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory’s Naval Center for Space Technology in Washington, D.C. Oct. 8, 2024. Once on-orbit, the RSGS payload will inspect and service satellites in geosynchronous orbit.

Large-size drone swarms can cover large areas under the icy surface. They can have only a limited number of sensors. But those drones make sensor fusion. And the drone swarm behaves like one bigger platform. This means. Those drones can carry similar sensors. As one large probe or aircraft. But the difference is that those sensors are under different independently operating bodies. And if one of those drones is gone, that doesn't make the failure to the entire mission.  

And that nuclear-powered unit will find a strange water world that is interesting even if there are no living organisms. But those small, long-lasting, independently operating drones can also have missions on Earth. The small AI-controlled drones can also operate in icy lakes under the Antarctean and Greenland icy shells. Things like closed caves and underwater water routes can also be places. That those drones can map. 

"In this illustration, a NASA space exploration concept called Probe using Radioisotopes for Icy Moons Exploration, or PRIME, is depicted being deployed from a lander on the frozen surface of an ocean world. The nuclear-powered probe, also called a cryobot, glows red in the subsurface ocean while connected via a communications tether to a lander miles above on the icy crust. Wedge-shaped, cellphone-size robots – another concept, called Sensing With Independent Micro-Swimmers, or SWIM – are seen traveling off underwater to conduct science beyond the heat of the probe. Credit: NASA/JPL-Caltech" (ScitechDaily, Could NASA’s Tiny Robots Discover Life on Europa?)

They can collect information about the closed ecosystems. That can be isolated even for thousands of years. But the same systems. That can map and research insects. Also, can collect data from other things. Drones can collect information about underwater systems like submarines. The new radar systems can follow underwater acoustic communication. The same systems can also search for information from the targeted people's discussions. 




The radars can search for things like pressure waves from air or water. And they can used to record the things that people say. Water carries sound at a very long distance. And the system that can measure the oscillation of the water surface can break the privacy of people, who are not careful. The submarine that travels in the water lines can eavesdrop on people in their houses and even the army headquarters. 

The new innovative robots can act as maintenance missions for spacecraft. They could repair the unmanned satellites and probes if they face problems. The repairing robot is the tool that can make the things like large-size, nuclear-powered drones more effective. They can be sure that the expensive system can fulfill its mission.  But similar robots can also fix other underwater drones and structures. The undersea robot can also make it possible to return unmanned systems that return from intelligence or strike missions.

How to make a moonbase?



The moonbase can involve cabin modules that have life support systems. The problem in the moonbase is radiation and micrometeorites. Also, solar wind or plasma flow from the sun can cause problems in the cabins. When high-energy plasma impacts the moonbase it causes radiation and electric pikes. And that's why there should be some kind of magnetic system like high-power electric magnets. That can pull that plasma away from the moon base. 

In many models, there can also be a liquid hydrogen layer between manned module and space. The liquid hydrogen layer that is between the sun and the crew can absorb radiation effectively. Below the hydrogen layer can be space that denies hydrogen flow into the manned module. The hydrogen shell can be like a vault or "Chernobyl" nuclear site's sarcophagus around the manned modules. That structure's purpose is to protect the crew against the cosmic radiation. 

But the moon concrete is the key element in the building site. Moon minerals involve iron and titanium. The centrifugal isolator can be used to separate elements from each other. But the moon concrete can be used to make the shield against micro- and larger meteorites. The moon base must have a laser or some other system to protect it against meteorites. 

Engineers use concrete to make things that they want in normal building sites. But when engineers want to make moon stations. They face many problems. And one of them is that normal concrete does not fit on the moon. Moon minerals are suitable for moon concrete. But the difference is that the system uses melted minerals. 

"NASA and international partners are exploring microwave sintering to build a lunar base using local materials like ilmenite, enhancing construction efficiency by leveraging the mineral’s unique properties for rapid heating." (ScitechDaily, From Science Fiction to Reality: How Scientists Plan To Build a Lunar Base)

The laser or microwave systems melt the moon dust. And then the system makes brick- or Lego-looking structures.  Then the builders will put those Lego particles in the right form, and then lasers or microwaves melt those bricks into one homogenous structure. The moon bricks are made using melted moon minerals. 

The problem is: where the system gets energy. Solar panels can give electricity to the microwave systems. And lasers can use sunlight as a power source. The thing is that if there is some mineral that can fold microwaves, that thing can make it possible to create a microwave lensing system to melt moondust. 

The 3D printers can create those moonbases. The melted moondust is the raw material for those 3D-printed structures. The system melts the moondust using lasers, electric arcs, or microwaves and then drives it through the nozzle. 

In some possible scenarios, the iron-based moon silicate will be put in the moon dust. Then the microwaves will conduct to that mixture. And iron minerals can help the system to absorb electromagnetic radiation. 

But the thing is that maybe the hybrid systems are the best in that business. Laser systems and giant optical parabolic mirrors can make it possible to melt moondust in the daytime. Then at nighttime, the system can use nuclear-powered microwave systems to make the lava, which the system can model to the structures for the moon base.

The Ukrainian attack drones are shown their power.


Ukrainian military used drones successfully against the Russian targets. The sea drones have shown their capacity to strike against the Russian navy.  Those attack drones are transformed jet scooters and fast boats equipped with warheads. Those systems are shown their power, and the thing is that those systems are a very big threat in the wrong hands. The small, fast boats equipped with heavy anti-tank weapons and internal warheads are hard to see. And they are quite hard targets to defenders.

Things like hydrofoils that travel in very low depth make it possible for those systems can come to target from unexpected directions. That thing makes those systems dangerous in the wrong hands. It's possible to transform almost any speedboat in the world into a killer drone. The naval bases' security must re-estimate. 


The hydrofoil technology can make, at least drone submarines more effective. 


Once I saw a diagram of a miniature submarine equipped with hydrofoils. The name for that concept was Sea Cigar (?), but I might be wrong. The Sea Cigar is the idea for a miniature submarine that can travel fast on the surface and underwater. The idea is that the Sea Cigar is a regular submarine that can travel underwater using propellers. But that submarine has the hydrofoils that allow it to rise above the surface. The craft can use a similar technology as Swedish Candela uses. 

But when the system needs to drive very fast. The drone submarine can use jet- or even rocket engines that give it an incredible speed. The idea is that this kind of system can travel near the target as submerged. But then it can select if it attacks the surface or submerged. The system is capable of traveling fast both submerged and surface. And that makes it even more capable than present drones.


https://www.economist.com/science-and-technology/2022/12/07/ukrainian-ingenuity-is-ushering-in-a-new-form-of-warfare-at-sea

The new cargo systems take their innovations from the hydrofoils and WIG technology.


Above Candela P-12, (Image: Candela)

The new "flying hydrofoils" like the Swedish "Candela" can rise high above waves. That technology allows for a decrease in energy use and pollution. Electric hydrofoils use so-called passive hydrofoil technology. There the speed of the craft raises the hull above the sea on the wings, which are similar used in aircraft. 

Interesting visions this kind of craft can also operate using air propellers or even jet engines. Jet engines give those hydrofoils incredible speed. Those flying hydrofoils of high-lifting hydrofoils can use even rocket engines to give power. And that makes them interesting and an alternative for many missions. 



However, there is a possibility to make a hybrid hydrofoil. That connects wing-in-ground WIG technology with regular aircraft and hydrofoils. The variable wing geometry (VWG) makes it possible to create wings that can turn under the aircraft. The aircraft can operate as a hydrofoil, WIG aircraft. And as regular, high-flying aircraft. In some plans, the aircraft pushes the hydrofoils from below them. The DARPA concepts are not so radical. But the Liberty Lifter is interesting. 




One thing that caused the failure of the "Caspian Sea Monster" was the noise. It's possible. The next-generation flying boats can use regular boat propellers to travel outside the harbor. And those systems can travel to the outer sea before they start their jet engines. If the craft can have the possibility to act as hydrofoil. It can use regular blowers to travel short distances. And that ability makes that kind of system possible to travel far enough that the jet engines will not disturb people. 


"Artist's concept of Aurora Flight Sciences' design" (Darpa.mil, Liberty Lifter)


The DARPA's new "Liberty Lifter" program is based on the Cold War-era Soviet WIG designs. Those flying boats use the WIG technology, but the difference between the famous "Caspian Sea Monster" is that the Liberty Lifter has longer wings. The Caspian Sea Monster's short wings limited its operations above the sea. The Liberty Lifter can operate as a regular aircraft and flying boat. As well as WIG aircraft. And maybe as a hydrofoil. When Liberty Lifter carries extremely heavy cargo it can use the WIG or hydofoil mode.  


"A rendering of a General Atomics' Liberty Lifter proposal (Wikipedia, Liberty Lifter)



Those things are next-generation tools for cargo, people transportation, and military purposes. Flying boats that use hydrogen can have internal electrolysis chambers. And that system can get electricity from any electric source. 

Large-scale flying boats can also operate from regular airfields. But amphibious mode makes it possible to operate from coastal areas even if there are no airfields. Those systems can operate in anti-ship, anti-submarine, and even in regular bombardment missions. That means they can carry the same weapon systems as some strategic bombers. So they can have the same nuclear strike capacity as B-52. And that makes those systems interesting.

New metamaterials make new data storage possible.


"Brookhaven scientists used their new ultrafast pair distribution function (uf-PDF) technique to explore the transition of a quantum material to a previously undiscovered material phase. The above schematic shows how the absorption of a laser photon initiates a small change that propagates through the material over time, rather than instantaneously changing the whole material. Credit: Jack Griffiths/Brookhaven National Laboratory" (ScitechDaily, Atomic ‘GPS’: Quantum Material Transitions Captured in First-Ever Atomic Movies)

In some old models, the quantum computer is two opposite hard disks. There would be the quantum points that the system puts oppositely. Then it shares information between those quantum points or quantum dots. And drives it to the other layer. 

New metamaterials and magnetic bubbles are revolutionizing data storage and computing. Before the computer can drive information into qubit, it must store it. In the same way, binary computers must store data before it starts to process information. 


"Information is stored by the depth-dependent direction of magnetization in the domain walls, which are located between the cylinder domains and their surroundings. This magnetization of the domain walls can point clockwise or counterclockwise in the individual blocks, which are separated vertically by ruthenium layers. By systematically varying these directions, researchers can encode different bit sequences within a cylinder domain, as is shown here with some artistic interpretation. Credit: HZDR/Bernd Schröder" (ScitechDaily, Revolutionizing Data Storage: How 3D Metamaterials and Tiny Magnetic Bubbles Could Change Everything)

The error correction requires error detection. And in short operations, the computer can simply drive data twice through the system. But in long operations that can take months, the system can use two, or more data lines to make error detection, and the computer must make intermediate recordings for data, that travels in the system. 

The atomic GPS makes it possible to locate and manipulate atoms on graphene layers. The system can used to store data into the atoms or their magnetic bubbles. Then the system can start to transport information between atoms. Or, it can transport information between the most out electrons of two atoms. The system must lock those electron's positions, and then it can begin data transportation between them. 

The new systems can store information in the atoms in the graphene layer without the need to transport them physically. That makes the system more effective than that system, which should transport every single atom all the time when it transports information to that thing. 

In some versions, the system can create towers of magnetic bubbles. Then it can put those towers on the graphene layer. And start to create quantum entanglement between those magnetic fields. The ability to store data in the magnetic bubble makes it possible to transport it as a qubit. 


"Researchers at ETH Zurich, led by Pietro Gambardella, have developed a method to control the quantum states of single electron spins using spin-polarized currents, which could enhance quantum computing technologies. This new technique offers more precise, localized control compared to traditional methods using electromagnetic fields, potentially improving the manipulation of quantum states in devices like qubits. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Magnetic Qubits: Scientists Develop New Way To Manipulate Quantum States)

The system can make superposition and entanglement between those bubbles. Or it can shoot those magnetic bubbles through the track to the receiver. The system can also transport information between two bubbles adjusting their size. Information can travel between two identical magnetic bubbles. 

When the magnetic bubble transports its information, the system can destroy it after data transportation is done. That makes data transportation more secure.

The new metamaterials allow the system. That looks like neteye. The system can store data into magnetic particles, and hang those particles like atoms into the neteye. Then it can make the quantum entanglement between magnetic particles at both layers. That thing makes it possible to create a fast, multistate quantum system. 

The graphene network stabilizes qubits into that network. And then those systems can transport data between two layers. The ability to store data in atoms and their magnetic field makes it possible to create new solutions for binary and quantum computers.

DNA can control non-alive processes.


"Visualization of the bridge recombinase mechanism highlighting the donor and target binding loops. Credit: Visual Science" (ScitechDaily, A “Word Processor” for Genes – Scientists Unveil Fundamentally New Mechanism for Biological Programming)

Maybe, quite soon we can use the DNA as a data store. 


“The bridge RNA system is a fundamentally new mechanism for biological programming,” said Dr. Patrick Hsu, senior author of the study and an Arc Institute Core Investigator and University of California, Berkeley Assistant Professor of Bioengineering. “Bridge recombination can universally modify genetic material through sequence-specific insertion, excision, inversion, and more, enabling a word processor for the living genome beyond CRISPR.”

"The bridge recombination system hails from insertion sequence 110 (IS110) elements, one of countless types of transposable elements – or “jumping genes” – that cut and paste themselves to move within and between microbial genomes. Transposable elements are found across all life forms and have evolved into professional DNA manipulation machines to survive. The IS110 elements are very minimal, consisting only of a gene encoding the recombinase enzyme, plus flanking DNA segments that have, until now, remained a mystery."(ScitechDaily, A “Word Processor” for Genes – Scientists Unveil Fundamentally New Mechanism for Biological Programming)

"Arc Institute scientists have discovered the bridge recombinase mechanism, a revolutionary tool that enables fully programmable DNA rearrangements. (ScitechDaily, A “Word Processor” for Genes – Scientists Unveil Fundamentally New Mechanism for Biological Programming)


"A team of researchers from the Arc Institute have discovered the bridge recombinase mechanism, a precise and powerful tool to recombine and rearrange DNA in a programmable way. Going far beyond programmable genetic scissors like CRISPR, the bridge recombinase mechanism enables scientists to specify not only the target DNA to be modified, but also the donor material to be recognized, so they can insert new, functional genetic material, cut out faulty DNA, or invert any two sequences of interest. Discover more in this short video visualizing the key aspects of the bridge recombination mechanism. Credit: Visual Science" (ScitechDaily, A “Word Processor” for Genes – Scientists Unveil Fundamentally New Mechanism for Biological Programming)

"Their finding, detailed in a recent Nature publication, is the first DNA recombinase that uses a non-coding RNA for sequence-specific selection of target and donor DNA molecules. This bridge RNA is programmable, allowing the user to specify any desired genomic target sequence and any donor DNA molecule to be inserted."(ScitechDaily, A “Word Processor” for Genes – Scientists Unveil Fundamentally New Mechanism for Biological Programming)

Researchers created the nanoparticle, called quasicrystal using the DNA. That makes it possible to create structures using the DNA as the code. DNA-based material development is sometimes dangerous. There is the possibility that the DNA that controls the quasicrystal's growth slips into the human or some anima's cells. And that thing makes this kind of thing dangerous. The reason for that is that DNA controls every single process in every single cell. 

Researchers can create new organisms and give new abilities to old ones using DNA programming. The artificial DNA molecules can control the cell's electric processes. And that means those artificial electric cells can transfer information stored in the DNA to the computers. That transfer happens using electric signals that those DNA molecules control.

Credit: Communications Physics (2024). DOI: 10.1038/s42005-024-01707-5 (Phys.org, Getting bacteria into line: Physicists use magnetic fields to manipulate bacterial behavior)

"Researchers at Finland's Aalto University have found a way to use magnets to line up bacteria as they swim. The approach offers more than just a way to nudge bacteria into order—it also provides a useful tool for a wide range of research, such as work on complex materials, phase transitions and condensed matter physics."  (Phys.org, Getting bacteria into line: Physicists use magnetic fields to manipulate bacterial behavior)

The magnetic fields can control the movements of bacteria. 


The new way to combine AI and living bacteria can make a revolution in material research and medical research. Researchers put the bacteria swim in lines using magnetic fields. This thing allows the system to drive bacteria anywhere it wants. The small powerful nanomagnets can be used to control individual bacteria. 

But then we can think about possibly using genetically engineered bacteria that create enzymes as medicine. Genetically engineered bacteria can create medicines or researchers can use those bacteria to transport wanted genomes or DNA bites to the targeted cells. 

The genetically engineered macrophage can transport DNA to the non-wanted cells. And that allows researchers to create of systems that simply order targeted cells to die. In that case, genetically engineered microbes can transport the DNA bite that orders cells to die into targeted cells. 


"A mathematical tool called a fast Fourier transform maps the structure in a way that reveals the 12-fold symmetry of the quasicrystal. The fast Fourier transform of the electron microscope image of the quasicrystal is shown on the left, while the transform of the simulated crystal is shown on the right. Credit: Mirkin Research Group, Northwestern University, and Glotzer Group, University of Michigan" (ScitechDaily, Revolution in Material Science: Scientists Construct Nanoparticle Quasicrystal With DNA)

When we think about the possibility that the nanomachines build wanted DNA bites technology can someday increase human lifespan. The ability to connect DNA bites together can form hydride species. But the same technology makes it possible to create bacteria that can transform into another cell. So DNA transfer can make it possible to create bacteria that can transform into any tissue cell or neuron. 

That thing allows the bacteria that the magnetic system drives into a wanted position, and then the DNA transforms them to cells, that can fix damages in the body. The system can create bacteria, that turn into stem cells at the right moment. When we think about the possibility of creating cyborg cells that microchips control, we can think of the possibility of creating an artificial macrophage or B-cell that can remove DNA from the cell. 

And then replace that removed DNA using new DNA. That allows the system to renew wanted cells. When we think about the possibility of changing DNA in a large cell group, we can think of the possibility. That the genetically engineered bacteria can someday change old DNA from aging cells. Replacing that old DNA using new and fresh DNA.

Chinese innovative new cyborg uses human brain cells as controllers.


Above: https://futurism.com/neoscope/robot-human-brain-cells

The use of cloned brain cells is a new thing in robotics. Chinese researchers used cloned brain cells to make computers or control units for robots. These kinds of systems are new and fundamental tools. The ability to use human neurons as a computer opens an interesting and, at the same time, terrifying thing. 

It makes it possible to create robots and computers with the same intelligence level as humans. This kind of technology is the thing that can revolutionize robotics. And it can escalate into many other things.

The Neuralink-type neuro-implanted microchips and these kinds of tools bring those kinds of robots into reality. Cloned brains can installed on a robot body using a microchip, that connects to the computer that controls the robot body with living brain tissue. The system can be put into the occipital nerve. 



"A team of Chinese scientists used stem cells to build the brain and paired it with a computer chip that passes instructions to the robot's body that helps move its limbs, avoid obstacles and track targets" (https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-13592197/Chinese-scientists-robot-powered-human-brain.html)

And it allows us to transmit neural impulses from the brains to the receiving microchip. That microchip can control the robot body or it can resend the information to the nervous system, that is below the neck. This is a suitable technology to restore the ability to move to people, who are paralyzed. 

The robot with living brains is actually, the brain in a vat. The robot system can involve a nutrient production unit. The system must feed brains with nutrients and protect that brain tissue against viruses and bacteria. The system must involve living bone marrow that allows it to create blood cells, that feed those neurons and defend them against bacteria. 

The living brain-controlled robots can have "local brains", which means every single robot body must have its life support system, that keeps those neurons alive. Bone marrow and blood cells require nutrients. So that they can feed those neurons. 

Or the brains can operate robots remotely using the internet. In that system brain in a vat is in the laboratory. The system is connected to the external body through the internet. The system can change the body that it wants to control very fast. And the robot bodies might also have remote-control abilities. That means robots are not like humans at all.

New high-quality solid-state lasers can give a new boost to laser, and communication technology.


""The new laser leans against a block of titanium-sapphire. For scale, both sit atop a quarter. Credit: Yang et al., Nature" (ScitechDaily, Stanford Engineers a Pocket-Sized Titanium-Sapphire Super Laser)


The pocket-size titanium-sapphire lasers can revolutionize laser technology. This kind of solid and high-quality lasers can make a revolution in laser, drone, and quantum technology. 

One way to create a powerful laser is to use modular technology. In that system, the modular laser uses multiple independently operating lasers. And the system focuses those laser rays into one point. There are various ways to make that kind of system. If lasers are in the drone swarms, those drones can point all of their rays into one point. Another way is to make a cylinder, and in the middle of the cylinder is a laser ray. Then,  other lasers send their laser rays into that laser ray. 

In Star Wars movies the fictional Death Star uses that kind of laser system. And that technology can also used in drone swarms. The drone swarms can also make virtual cylinders. And then, one of the drones will shoot the collector laser ray through it. Then, other lasers will shoot their energy into that collector ray, which can reach a very high energy level. 

Modular laser technology makes it possible to create new types of quantum communication. In those systems, every laser can send information at the same time. But in different frequencies. That thing can make information more secure than without that technology. 

When we think about neural network systems like drone swarms, we must realize one thing. The single drone is a dummy, but as an entirety, the drone swarms can be extremely intelligent and independent. The virtual quantum computing mode in the drone swarms can operate like this: The system shares data bites with each drone. Then, those drones can collect that information into one entirety as quantum computers can do. That kind of information-handling system is a powerful tool. 

Laser technology allows drone swarms to operate in areas. There is powerful electromagnetic turbulence like plasma fields. In those areas, lasers offer secure and error-free communication applications. Small-size lasers that can cut metal, measure distances, and offer communication ability in one system make them multi-purpose tools.

When can smart glasses replace mobile telephones?



Smart glasses are an interesting tool. That can replace even mobile telephones. There are a couple of things in those kinds of systems that limit their use. The battery lifetime is always limited in lightweight systems. Maybe, the smart glasses communicate with the internet using mobile telephones as the gates. The smart glasses can use the camera, which allows it to read texts. 

And then, that system can send text to a central server, which can read or store it. That allows users to give commands to those systems using written texts.  The camera can have IR and UV options. And those systems allow the smart glasses to see in the dark. The system can project the map to the front of the people's eyes, and the smart glasses can integrate with other systems like surveillance cameras. 

Also, smart glasses can connect with drones. And in the military world, operators can use those glasses with cameras. The glasses are connected to cameras. That is in the place of laser pointers. Technology, created for smart glasses can integrate with the combat aircraft control tools.

The user interfaces are hard to make for the smart glasses. If and when researchers want to integrate smart glasses with wearable technology, they must remember. The user must use both hands for something else than writing words on the keyboard. 

The tools called MouthPads that allow to control computers using the touchpad-style system that the user can put in the mouth can answer those kinds of problems. Another way to use smart glasses is the user interfaces, that follow the eye movements. The system can follow the macula lutea to select operation in the graphical user interface. The user can use eye blinking as the virtual mouse button. 

The smart glasses can cooperate with generative AI. That allows the user to give spoken commands to AI. The problem with that model is that the noise around the user can disturb those commands. And the thing that researchers might want to use with the smart glasses is the brain-computer interface BCI. The system would be ideal for smart, or magic glasses that can be connected to any computer using Bluetooth. And that thing makes those systems very flexible.

Complicated cooperation between Broca's and Wernicke areas.



Image Wikipedia, Wernicke's area


Which brain area should we observe? If we want to make the Brain-Computer Interface (BCI)? Maybe the best point would be the neural tracks that transport information to the facial and throat muscles from the sensorimotor brain lobe. The problem is that observing this kind of structure requires an extremely high accuracy. The complete BCI requires deep knowledge of the brain activity and its internal and external communication. 

The key role in communication is in the Broca's and Wernicke areas. But what area should we observe, if we want to transmit thoughts to the computer? Natural selection is the brain lobe that produces speech. Transforming speech to text and driving it to the AI is simple. But if we want to take that text straight from the brain, we must realize that speech is a product of the cooperation of multiple different brain lobes. And that is the key problem that BCI sensor creators must solve. 

The Neuralink chip observes the Broca area. That is the responsibility to produce speech. I sometimes write that we should hear Wernicke lobe rather than Broca. The reason for that is the Wernicke area is the brain lobe that understands speech. The third part that is required is the senso motorial brain lobes, which give orders to the facial and throat muscles that produce words. 

The interaction between the Broca and Wernicke areas is bidirectional. In old models, the information travels from the Wernicke lobe to Broca. The Broca sends orders to neurons that control the muscles that produce speech. That is a simple model. But things like aphasia research give information. The Wernicke plays a bigger role in speech production than previously noticed. 

The data travels between those three points in a more complex model than previously thought. That means the Wernicke lobe may check that the speech that Broca's area creates is something. That somebody understands. When Broca's area creates speech, it interacts with two other brain segments and collects data for the speech from memory blocks. The reason why the Broca is silent when people speak is its role as an information sender to the sensorimotor brain lobe. 

Broca's area must wait for those neurons' feedback after it sends the information. When the sensorimotor brain lobe sends feedback. it sends information back to Broca that received information. That feedback tells the Broca's area can release axons for the next mission. And if  Broca's area sends something during that feedback. There is a possibility that the neuron in Broca's area sends information to sensorimotor neurons using the same axon track. And that can cause disorder. 

But then researchers noticed. That while a person speaks. The Broca is shut. And that makes it hard to create a system that follows only the Broca area and turns speech to text, linking it to the interface. That thing means that the most promising areas that this kind of system should follow are Wernicke or sensorimotor area. The key element is that the system should listen to areas that handle complete communication.

The new exoskeleton and rovers will revolutionize transportation.


The image above portrays the futuristic space suit. The artificial muscles and highly advanced technology make those systems extremely flexible. The system can use biologically cloned muscle cells. And highly advanced biological computers to control the suit. The claws on shoes can improve grip in difficult terrain. The intelligent brain-computer interface BCI systems communicate with those suits. The system can use cloned electric eel's cells to make electric  

The exoskeleton is a wearable robot, that can turn a human into a cyborg with extremely strong muscles. The exoskeleton allows that person to raise even a car from the ground. 

The exoskeletons can combined into space suits. That kind of AI-driven system can make it possible for a person to walk while sleeping. And that makes exoskeletons the basis for the new types of all-terrain suits. The exoskeletons are things. That makes it possible to create new types of transportation solutions.  


"Researchers have developed an AI-enhanced controller for exoskeletons that learns to support various movements such as walking and running without individual calibration. This system reduces energy expenditure significantly, making it a promising tool for enhancing human mobility efficiently." (ScitechDaily, AI and Exoskeletons Team Up to Transform Human Performance on Earth and in Space)


When researchers want to connect the exoskeleton with a space suit, that allows it to operate in highly radioactive places. Other places. Where heavy space suits can operate are deep-sea areas. And that can be the more powerful system in deep-sea operations. The problem with the so-called white space suit is their weight. And the exoskeleton can solve this problem.

The new rover systems can revolutionize transportation on other planets. And the same systems can also operate on the bottom of the sea. In some visions those, maybe truck- or Greyhound bus-size nuclear-powered vehicles can host moving laboratories. The same systems can operate underwater, and in some futuristic visions, those miniature submarines can carry torpedoes at the back of them. That allows it to trap bigger submarines from below. 

In some plans, the hovercraft-type solutions can travel on the moon. The system would make the air cushion using rockets. That is below the vehicle. Their size can be enormous because they must not land on Earth. All changes in cargo happen at the Earth orbiter. 

Those moon hovercrafts can also operate as shuttles between the moon and the Earth orbiter. The moon shuttle must only increase its rocket engine power. And then those engines raise the shuttle to the moon orbiter, and those shuttles turn to use their transit engines to travel to Earth. On Earth orbiter, their cargo will be loaded to conventional shuttles. And then the needed merchandise will be loaded to those moon shuttles, that return to the moonbase.

Ukraine attacked against Russian long-range radar systems.


Image: (The WarZone,Strike On Russian Strategic Early Warning Radar Site Is A Big Deal)


The purpose of those attacks could be to open Russian aerospace for Ukrainian drones. The attacks against those radars were attacks against the Russian early warning system. And it affects Russia's ability to see incoming intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBM). These kinds of attacks cause worries because if the Russian military loses its ability to detect incoming nuclear missiles, that can increase the possibility of making false detections about incoming missiles. And that raises the risk of global nuclear warfare. 


Image: (The WarZone,Strike On Russian Strategic Early Warning Radar Site Is A Big Deal)


The primary purpose of those radar systems is to detect enemy missiles and aircraft. But those radars can also have a weapon role. If the radar's transmitting power is high enough, that system can form the EMP pulse that destroys the electronics in the target area. The EMP pulses can also destroy radio transmitters and computers, and the high-power OTH radar can also be used to lock the GPS systems. High-power radars are excellent jammer tools. 

And as you can see, the OTH radars are multipurpose tools. If plus and minus radiation from two OTH antennas cross at a certain point, that thing can form electric arcs. Officially the "Voronezh M" uses about 0,7 MW power. But real power can be much higher. And if the radio waves from plus and minus poles impact it can form an electric arc. Or if the power is lower, that can cause a rise in body temperature. That kind of system can cause some kinds of symptoms. Or it can cause lethal injuries if the transmitter power is too high. 


"How a skywave OTH radar works: A powerful shortwave signal from a large transmitting antenna (left) reaches a target beyond the horizon by refracting off the ionosphere, and the echo signal from the target (right) returns to the receiving antenna by the same route. In practice, the beams are much closer to the horizon than shown here". (Wikipedia, Over-the-horizon radar)

From that image, you can see how the OTH radar works. All OTH radars work with similar principles. That means this image can used for modeling the OTH radars. The OTH system sends a skywave that jumps back from the ionosphere. Then that radio wave jumps back to the receiver. The only thing that limits this kind of system operation is the transmitter's power. For making long-distance, high-resolution images. The system requires very high transmission power. 



"Radio waves (black) reflecting off the ionosphere (red) during skywave propagation. Line altitude in this image is significantly exaggerated and not to scale." (Wikipedia,Skywave)



"Example of Skywave Propagation taken from PSK Reporter (Wikipedia, Skywave)

When we think about symptoms that some Ukrainian soldiers report, the reason for those symptoms can be some kind of poison gas. Or it can be some kind of acoustic or electromagnetic system that can warm or heat the nervous tissue. The electric arcs can used as acoustic wave sources. Or they can used to stress the nervous system. 

The thing is that it's possible. Those long-range over-the-horizon radars (OTH) can used to jam the GPS and Starlink systems by making radio signals that cover the GPS and data communication. The long-range radars can see targets over the horizon, and they can also support their artillery. The Ukrainian military forces attacked against "Voronezh M" radars that can see to even 8000 kilometers. The effective range of those systems is confirmed to be 6000 kilometers. 

But it's possible. Those OTH radars can see targets from 8000 kilometers away. The "Voronezh M" plays a key role in the Russian early warning system. If too many of those radars are damaged, that system's ability to see incoming missiles decreases.

Russia shot a suspected space weapon into an orbital trajectory.



There is suspicion that the Russian new satellite (Cosmos 2576) is an ASAT weapon. The mysterious satellite is in the same orbiter as a U.S. government probe. And there is suspicion that this Russian probe involves some kind of kill vehicle like kinetic energy weapons or even a nuclear warhead. The nuclear warhead is one of the most feared weapons in space. In too many scenarios, the nuclear attack begins with a nuclear explosion in space, whose purpose is to knock out electric systems by using the electromagnetic pulse (EMP). 

The EMP pulse can destroy aircraft and computers and damage other electronics and electric networks. In some visions, the EMP weapon is hidden in the satellites, which can detonate at low orbiter. The EMP weapon can wait in the high orbiter, and when it takes order, it can transport the weapon to the lower orbiter. The spaceborne nuclear weapon can destroy many satellites. And this is the reason why those systems are prohibited. 

One version of the space nuclear weapon is the laser system, where a nuclear weapon pumps energy. The nuclear elements are around or near the laser. Then that nuke will detonate, and the laser aims the light to the ground. This kind of laser can be dangerous to ground targets even if they are single use. The nuke will vaporize that laser immediately, but that system destroys many satellites around it. 


There is suspicion that the Russian space weapon is a dummy nuclear weapon. If the protection of that weapon is not strong enough. The hackers can break its launching codes. And in that case, it's possible. That some hackers can detonate that weapon. 

The Soviet Union tested killer satellites and their control systems in their Almaz program.  The Almaz was a highly secretive military space station program, there the Soviets tested military space applications including weapon solutions. The satellites equipped with machine guns or simply made collide with each other. Those tests and research work continued after the 1967 treaty that banned space weapons. 

The killer satellites were planned to be used against things like military communication and recon satellites during the war. And that should deny the submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) submarines getting their launching codes. The GPS satellites also planned targets for the killer satellites and ground-based ASAT systems. 

The analysis of the effects of space nukes is based on data collected mainly from high-yield nuclear tests Hardtack 1 Teak, and Orange in 1958. And Operation Dominick, 1962. In a nuclear test codenamed "Dominick Starfish Prime" on 9 June 1962, the U.S. military launched a 1450 kt (about 1,5 mt) nuclear weapon over Honolulu. The altitude of that test is reported 248 miles (about 400 km). 

And that EMP pulse closed electric circuits in Honolulu city. This test shows how powerful spaceborne nukes can be. And today electricity is more sensitive than in 1962. There were also smaller nuclear tests in high atmosphere like the "Argus" test series, that tested the small nuclear weapon's ability to create plasma shield over targets.

What if we establish Venus's base and search for possible lifeforms from that planet?

 


"A new paper argues that studying Venus, despite its inhospitable conditions, is crucial for understanding the potential for life on other planets and predicting Earth’s future. It outlines the similarities and differences between Earth and Venus, highlights the importance of understanding Venus’s atmospheric and geological conditions, and explains upcoming NASA missions aimed at gaining more insights. " (ScitechDaily, Scientists Turn to Venus in the Search for Alien Life)

The research underscores the necessity of using Venus as a model to make accurate assumptions about life on distant planets and to contemplate the long-term fate of Earth. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Scientists Turn to Venus in the Search for Alien Life)


Venus can be a more suitable harbor for extraterrestrial life than Mars. 


There may be some primitive lifeforms on the planet Venus. Those lifeforms can hover in their sulphuric acid clouds. Or they can live in Venus' mountain area like Maxwell Montes. 

It's possible. Those still hypothetical lifeforms can be like bacteria, that make sulfur powdery mildew from sulphuric acid. That bacteria could live on the dark side of Venus, and it's possible. Those bacteria could turn themselves into spores at dayside as anthrax bacteria make on Earth. Those bacteria spores could hover in clouds much longer than. 

They could hover on Earth. Venus's atmosphere is much denser than Earth's. And it's different. Carbon dioxide is a heavier gas than oxygen and nitrogen. The atmosphere is also flat, which means it starts to turn denser at lower altitudes than Earth's atmosphere.

But the highlands are more comfortable. And it's possible that sometime in the future. Humans will build a base on Venus's highlands or hover base in its atmosphere.

Suggested specifications for the robotic airship (Wikipedia, High Altitude Venus Operational Concept)




Another HAVOC concept.

"Slide detailing sequence of events for the crewed descent (Wikipedia, High Altitude Venus Operational Concept)


The High Altitude Venus Operational Concept (HAVOC) program. 


In 1971 the Soviet engineer and Sci-Fi writer Sergei Zhitomirsky introduced the idea of the "Venus islands". Those islands would be airships in Venus's atmosphere. 

Venus's atmosphere is a carbon monoxide or carbon dioxide-based place, where lead will melt. In some visions, there could be liquid lead ponds on Venus's surface. Carbon dioxide is a very heavy gas. And on Venus, we could fly by using nitrogen balloons. The High Altitude Venus Operational Concept (HAVOC) program is the plan to make a hovering base in Venus's atmosphere. 

In some visions, the HAVOC base could be the quadcopter that acts as a platform that hovers in the atmosphere. The system can use a long tube. That makes the capillary pull through the generator. This system can hover in Venus's atmosphere because it's denser and carries that craft better than Earth's atmosphere. Nitrogen and oxygen are lighter gas than carbon dioxide. Also, a copy of Earth's atmosphere makes lightweight structures hover in Venus's atmosphere. 

The program plan is to send the airships to Venus's atmosphere. Those fully automatized systems can predict manned bases at Venus's clouds. Or in its highlands. 

Manned base on Venus's highlands can be like regular houses. But the life support system requires carbon monoxide filters. The structure must have thermal protection structures. Venus's colonists can use similar protective suits that the people who work in steel factories use. 

The carbon filters can remove carbon dioxide from Venus's atmosphere before the life-support systems drive that cleaned gas to the crew cabin. The crew must stay in those mountain areas, where the temperature is lower than on Venus's surface.

One purpose of that futuristic Venus base could be to terraform that planet. In that case, the colony creates the genetically engineered bacteria to remove oxygen from carbon dioxide. That should decrease the temperature on that planet's surface and lowlands. But those visions are far away in the future.

Acoustic wormholes and long-distance ion beams can be the next-generation tools.



"Artist’s impression of optoacoustic computing. Credit: Long Huy Da" (ScitechDaily, AI Efficiency Breakthrough: How Sound Waves Are Revolutionizing Optical Neural Networks)


Acoustic wormholes and long-distance ion beams can be the next-generation tools. 


Acoustic systems can revolutionize optical networks. 


The acoustic beam means energy or particle beam, where energy travels in or between molecular-size structures. The term acoustic laser means the coherent soundwave that travels in the air. The reason why researchers are interested in acoustic systems is that those systems transmit cold energy. The acoustic systems can play molecule billiards. And researchers can use them to assemble nanomachines. 

The U.S. military and police's LRAD (Long Range Acoustic Devices) are one example of acoustic lasers. In "acoustic lasers". The acoustic system pushes the soundwave into a very thin form. Some acoustic systems use diamonds to make powerful, highly accurate, and thin sound waves. This kind of system makes it possible to cut even metals with a very high accuracy. 

Acoustic waves can also transmit digital data. The acoustic system can send acoustic waves to the piezo crystals. That can transform them into digital form. The LRAD systems also can make it possible to send very accurate binary data through air. The system itself is a modem. That is connected to the acoustic lasers. Accurate acoustic systems can used to create highly accurate sonars. 

If the sonar system uses LRAD technology it can create powerful soundwaves that are invisible from the sides. The highly accurate acoustic systems can create a powerful acoustic wave that can break even metals. This kind of system can turn the sonar system into a weapon, that breaks the submarine shell. 

Acoustic systems can make it possible to send qubits through the air. In those cases, acoustic systems can drill holes in the air. The system can use things like acoustic diamonds to make the acoustic tornado, which makes the vacuum channel through the air. The acoustic systems can also transport energy in the small piezo-crystals. And that thing can help to control the miniature LEDs. And other kinds of systems. 



Acoustic wormholes. And Tesla's death ray. The acoustic wormholes can make it possible to give long-distance antimatter injection to the target. 


The Tesla's death ray could be an acoustic wormhole through the air. Or it might be the electron beam, artificial lighting, that travels through an artificial eruption channel. The coherent micro- or radio waves can create that eruption channel. That helps to aim an electron beam at the target with a very high accuracy. 

But, if we want to make a long-distance shot in the atmosphere, we must create a vacuum channel through the air. Ions do not travel long distances in the air, because they hit air molecules. And those impacts neutralize those ions. That means the ion beam is not dangerous in the air. The acoustic wormholes or vacuum channels through the air make the ion beam unable to release its energy. And if the system shoots protons in the electron rays those protons keep those ion beams in their form. 

The acoustic wormhole or vacuum channel or vacuum tunnel through the air makes it possible to send long-distance antimatter beams through the air. The system must only deny the antimatter touch with the regular material. If that thing is possible. The antimatter ion cannon is possible. 

It's possible to shoot antimatter ions to the target through the air. If there is a vacuum channel that denies the antimatter ion touch the air molecules. The antimatter ion beam that travels in acoustic wormholes can give the possibility to send highly accurate anti-matter impacts to the target. And that system can make the antimatter-ion cannons the next-generation replacers for nuclear weapons. 

The acoustic systems can used to make the ions travel longer distances in the air. If researchers connect the acoustic system to the lasers. It can used to make acoustic wormholes. In those systems, the laser creates a vacuum channel through the air, and then the acoustic system creates the sound tornado around that channel. That acoustic tornado closes the vacuum channel in it. And the acoustic tornado denies outcoming air to fill that channel. 

The acoustic wormhole can make Tesla's death ray true. The ion cannons can shoot ions and anions through those channels. If there are positive ions in the electron beam. That electromagnetic pull keeps the beam in its form. The acoustic system can make it possible. That the ions and electrons can travel in the vacuum channel. In the channel must be two internal acoustic beams that deny the electron touch with protons. And that makes it possible to shoot ion beams in long range. The system must only deny the ion touch with air molecules. The system must separate negative and positive components. 

Maybe Nikola Tesla's original idea was simpler than this. The idea could be that the death ray system creates the eruption channel through air. The maser (Microwave amplification by stimulated emission of radiation) or coherent radio waves can create an ion channel through air. That channel forms the artificial eruption channel through the air. Then the system can release an electron beam through that channel.
