More about theoretical extraterrestrial lifeforms

More about theoretical extraterrestrial lifeforms

We must confess one thing, and that is we cannot know, what would some extraterrestrial lifeform look like. Because we don't have straight prove about the existence of that kind of lifeform. And if we are thinking about the fossils of planet Mars, we have not thought that they might become from Earth. 

When the giant meteorite hit Earth, that could throw water and other kinds of things even to space, and those ice bites can drop to Mars. But as you see this is one of many theories about this kind of thing. The life in the universe might be very common, but intelligent lifeforms might be a very extraordinary thing.

And the thing is that culture and technology are a little bit different thing than some kind of intelligence. This makes things like SETI-program so fascinating but in the same way so difficult. We don't know, what kind of things those organisms do, or what they are looking like, but as you see, we must say something. 

Those hypothetical organisms might live in different kind of conditions, and thing what is poisonous for us might be important to those aliens. If the conditions of the hypothetical planets would be similar to Earth, but there would be the giant landmass, there might live lifeforms, which cannot ever drink water. 

For those creatures, water can be poison, because it breaks the cells, and they can get all water from the food. In some other scenarios, aliens would live in the conditions, what is full of acid. In that case, those aliens might have slime cover, which isolates the body from the acid, or their skin would renew very fast because acid would remove cells away from the skin of those creatures.

 And for those organisms the conditions, where is no acid can be deadly, because the slime would sink that organism, or their skin would become too thick, what might cause death. Same way if the aliens would live in carbon dioxide, that means that pure oxygen would burn the mitochondria of those creatures. But those aliens are only hypotheses. 

Van Maanen's star and Epsilon Eridiani's connection with SETI-program. 

Van Maanen's star (Van Maanen 2) (1) is a white dwarf and one of the nearest stars of our solar system. The distance to that white dwarf is 13,9 light-years from us. The thing that the Sun would transform into a white dwarf at the end of its life has caused an idea that or theory, that this star might have civilization, what has moved to another solar system There is no proof about the civilization but the thing is that Van Maanen's star has once been giving fascinating ideas in the mind of SciFi writers and theorists, who have got idea, that this hypothetical civilization would move to Epsilon Eridani, before the Van Maanen's star has erupted as nova. But there is no proof about that. 

Epsilon Eridani is one of the stars, where is looked at the intelligent lifeforms. The star is very well-known because the OZMA-message (3) would send it to that star. This star is too young that scientists say that they could find intelligent lifeforms or civilization around it.  

And that star is only 0,7 mass of the mass of Sun. The thing is that Epsilon Eridani is cooler than our sun, and if there could be the aliens, they would not feel comfortable on Earth, because the sun is so bright, that the skin of aliens would burn. But there is one remarkable thing in that star and the solar wind of Epsilon Eridani is very strong, 30 times more powerful than the sun (4). That tells a very strong magnetic activity. Maybe it is caused that the star is very young, but there is another explanation for that. 

And that means that there have been happening something, what causes that effect. So is that star faced the GRB (Gamma Ray Burst), which means that it would get extra energy dose. That thing can cause that magnetic field would get stronger. But the energy for that thing might be caused by some other reasons and is it possible that the overactivity of Epsilon Eridani causes that the star has impacted with some red dwarf.

Biotechnology and nanomachines

Biotechnology and nanomachines

As I have written earlier, there is not very much difference between biotechnology and nanotechnology. Nettles and medusas have cells, which can use as extremely thin styluses. And when we are thinking the axons of neurons, they could be used as the electric wires in the extremely small microchips.

The brain cells of the bugs are planned to use as the biocomputers of some miniature robots. The cell would put in the chamber, where is connected to the EEG-sensors, and that thing makes possible that the neuron can operate the robot or computer, which is connected to it. This thing would make nanorobots more independent, what they could ever be.

One snake has the poison, which molecule seems like a rotor. When this rotor would slip in the cell, it would start to rotate and destroy the internal organs of the cell. This thing makes that molecule very interesting because it can use also for something, what we might ever think. The thing in nanotechnology is that only the imagination is giving limits for this very fascinating part of the machinery. The nanomachines are operating like full-size machines but their size is extremely small.

If those rotors would be equipped with iron atoms, what is put on the outer corner of those rotors, and they are put in the metal ring, that thing would allow creating extremely small generators, which can deliver electric power to the extremely small nanorobots. Those robots would send in the human body, and then those systems might even fix the DNA molecule inside the cells.

Another very imaginational way to operate the nano-size generators is to slip them in mitochondria. That would give extra power to those cells' organs, and in theory that would make more power to muscles and neurons. But this kind of thing is fantastic and as well as dangerous thoughts because we don't know, what will happen if we would create more electricity for cells of the human body or nervous system.

But when we are thinking about the use of nature with nano- and mini technology, there are some very interesting things in the vegetables, which can easily be used for nanotechnology. Those things are the injection hairs of the nettles, what can cut and then empty from the formic acid. That hair can be used as an injection stylus in some cases.

The thing in the use of natural materials in nanotechnology and it's instruments is a very interesting opportunity. If we think things like harpoon cells of some medusas, those things would be suitable tools in nanotechnical purposes. They are easy to collect, but the problem is that they are poisonous. But also benzene, what can be used in the nanotubes is really poisonous and highly carcinogenic material. Those cells can be used as the injection and transfer parts of extremely small parts of robots to one place to another.

Why a broken mirror can cause seven years of bad luck?

Why a broken mirror can cause seven years of bad luck?

This is the myth, and sometimes for the explanation for this myth has been offered that sometimes king was observing rooms behind the one-side mirror, and if the person would break the mirror, the surveillance room behind the mirror would be uncovered. But there is one very interesting and at the same time a horrifying explanation for that thing.

If behind the mirror glass would be an anaerobic bacteria, and the mirror would be broken, could that bacteria released in the room. When we are thinking the case that there could be some kind of tensions in the class, the change of the temperature would cause that the glass will be broken. The thing is that most of the anaerobic bacteria would cause a very dangerous eruption and if those bacteria would be released to the room, would the result be horrifying.

When we are thinking about the cases, where bacteria has no nutrient, they would many times go in the resting spore, and when they are facing the food or some chemicals, they would wake up. This is how anthrax-bacteria will work, and those resting spores can infect a person even hundreds of years after they have gone in the hibernation.  Also, other bacteria are making this, and if the botulinum bacteria would get in the mouth or nose, it would start to create the nervous poison, what is the most lethal in nature. So this kind of things might be caused the tale about bad luck, what is connected to the broken mirrors.

Writing for this Good Friday


Writing for this Good Friday

Today is the Good Friday, and I must say, that this day is the day when one man crucified in Palestine a long time ago. This thing caused the domino-effect, which destroyed the entire Roman empire. Sometimes I have read good comments about this case, and one of the best is found from the book "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy". That comment is going like this: "Why couldn't we be nice to each other without nobody should nail to somewhere". And the main question is, why every advantage would go through the destruction.

Why we need crises to create advantages in society and technology? And why every time must somebody get more than others? This is a nice way to ask, why we cannot put our technical skills sometimes to the things, what is really influencing in a positive way? When we are thinking about things like nuclear weapons, we might say one thing, those weapons are not actually bad things.

The weapon itself doesn't kill the users to kill

Some people say that nuclear weapons don't kill people. The users of the weapons kill. And there is one macabre simile about the role of the weapon in the war. That simile is that the nails didn't kill Jesus in the crucifixion, the man who used the hammer and nails killed. And after that, there have been many questions about this case.

The first and the best question was, that did the executor himself know, why that man was ordered to crucified, and what the Romans told him? The second one was why the executor didn't put the poison to those nails, that the death would be faster? Was that man psychopath, who enjoyed killing and extortion? Or did some Roman told that the man was a really bad person?

The purpose of the poisoned nails was that the person could not tell anything from the cross, and that poison was normally taken from the Cobra. That neural toxin is really lethal, and it would affect in less than a minute. Poison of Cobra is really dangerous because it would pass the skin, and that means that even the spit can be lethal.

Nuclear weapons are worse than people ever think

In some scenarios, nuclear weapons can turn away or vaporize the asteroids that are in the impact trajectory with Earth. This operation must be made far away from Earth because the debris can be very dangerous for satellites or even the people. But in fact, if scientists or operators would start to push the asteroids away in the far distance, they can avoid the impact.

The system would be simple the rocket stage, what would drive on the asteroid, and then it would simply push the asteroid away. That thing might be the third rocket stage of the Saturn V, what is equipped with the feet in the nose. That system might look like the moon module, what is upside down. This system can use its rocket motor when it would push the asteroid away from the trajectory.

 But if nuclear weapons would use in military purposes, they would be a very bad thing. And the fact is that those weapons are hidden more terrifying things, what the people are even thought. Those more terrifying purposes are connected to creating and developing biological weapons. Any nation in the world is not officially creating those weapons, but there are rumors about the underground laboratories what are hidden in the artificial caves and inside those laboratories, the organisms are refining and the vaccines against those organisms are creating.

Biological weapon production is easy to hide

Nuclear weapons or explosives can someday save mankind if they are used to destroy some comet, what is coming to our direction. And another thing, what nuclear weapons have created is the peace movement, what would demonstrate that people don't want their homes to transform in ash in the temperature of billions of Celsius. And the thing is that nuclear weapons are not the worst weapons of the mass destruction at all.

The worst mass destruction weapons are biological weapons, which can destroy entire armies with a very effective way. One thing that would make nuclear weapons more terrifying, than normal people would even think, is that those weapons can be used for terminating the biological weapons laboratory if there is released the organisms.

Biological weapons are the normal organisms, what are living in nature.

The problems with biological weapons are that they are natural organisms and most of the biological weapons are bacteria, what is taken from the natural environment. Most of the bacteria are dangerous if they are transforming to the anaerobic space, and the lack of oxygen would transform their metabolism that it would start to create the poisons like botulinum toxin, what is the most effective neurological poison in the world.

That poison is creating by the bacteria, what is one of the most common organisms on the planet. Botulinum toxin is an effective part of the nerve gases, but people always forget that the botulinum is the creation of the bacteria, what living in nature.

Six clicks separate people from each other.
