Transistor shaped miniature robots are maybe investigating the surface of Titan moon in the future

How some animal actually moves its legs might seem not very interesting or relevant knowledge. But this information is the most relevant, when we are creating walking robots, what can move them in extreme difficult landscape. Those next-generation robots can be actually similar than some space probes in 1960’ and 1970’s. They would have similar legs than those landing crafts, what landed on Moon and Mars. But they would have one big difference, those legs would be moving.


The next generation space probe would travel across the landscape like some giant spider, and that allows to investigate larger areas than before. The problem with the wheeled bed is problematic, because the wheels need quite a flat base, that they could be used. And if the site of that robot or craft would be on the edge of the sand, the waves would be problematic, because the wheels have so big layer, that waves can tip the machine.


In the wave line of the coast is needed a robot, what can stand in place in heavy waves. That’s why the engineer must copy the same solution, what the crayfish or some bugs use when they are living near the sea. This kind of robots would be sent to the Saturn giant moon Titan, to investigate the hydrocarbon seas of that moon. There might be found the bacteriological organisms, or some other explanations, why there are no other known living planets like Earth?


Maybe Titan can give the answer, why we are so lucky, that we don’t have competitors in our own solar system. The robots what could be sent to that strange world are might be sized and shaped similar to old-time transistors. They can be delivered from the balloon, what might investigate this giant moon in the future. And they would be sent there even thousands. Those miniature space probes would be the masterpiece of integrated microcircuits, and they could cover very large areas of that moon. Their mission would find interesting places for bigger lenders, what have more sophisticated laboratories and capacity to analyze the preparation.


But the problem is that those bigger laboratories need safe places to land. The preparations would be taken from the surface of that planet, and that’s why there would need the miniature probes to investigate and locate the place where might be found amino acids or marks of living organisms. That’s why there would be lots of miniature probes would deliver to the Titan surface. And if some of them see something interesting, the bigger probe would land in that place or near it. Then the laboratory would walk to the place, where is the marks of bacteria if smaller probes would find this kind of thing, and then call the bigger ones to make the more sharp investigation to make sure, that the finding is actually some bacteria.

Antigravity will be the greatest thing. That we have ever created.

"Artistic depiction of a fictional anti-gravity vehicle" (Wikipedia, Anti-gravity) Sometimes, if the airships have the same lifting power as the weight of the airship.  It can act like some “antigravity system”. Those systems are based on lighter-than-air gas or hot air. The system can have a helium tank. And the hot-air section whose temperature can be adjusted using microwaves or particles that lasers warm. Those systems are faster to control than some gas flames. This makes it possible. To adjust the lifting power.  If a thing like a balloon has the same lifting power as its weight, the balloon can be lifted to a certain point and altitude. And the balloon stands at that point until something moves it. That kind of thing can make an impression. On the antigravity systems. Modern airships. Like Lockheed-Martin P-791 can look. Like a “UFO”. The system can use systems to move the craft. Or maybe those ion systems are used for plasma stealth systems, if those airships' mis...

The first test flight of X-59 QueSST

The X-59 QueSST (Quiet Supersonic Technology) demonstrator is the next generation of aircraft design. The QueSST technology means. The aircraft creates a gentler sonic boom. Because its wings are radically long and narrow delta wings, and its nose is also radically long, which makes the sonic pressure cone thinner. That technology makes the sonic boom quieter.  The QueSST technology in X-59 is a new and radical design. All of those systems are caricatures. And the final solutions might look far different than the prototypes. The QueSST technology is one of the things. That is planned to be used. It is used in military and civil applications. If that technology is successful. It can be used in manned and unmanned systems. But that requires more work.  The X-59 also uses fundamental technology. Where the pilot must not have windows. To see outside. The camera and other sensors replace traditional windows. And that can be useful in more advanced aircraft that operate at hypersoni...

The theory about paralleled universes

http://crisisofdemocracticstates.blogspot.fi/p/the-theory-about-paralleled-universes.html Kimmo Huosionmaa There is the quite unknown theory about paralleled universes. In this theory, there is not a single universe. Universes are like pearls in the pearl necklace, and there could be the connection between those universes. The connection to other universes would make possible the channel what is forming when the black hole would make the gravity tunnel to another universe. And in the paralleled universe theory, there could be millions of universes in the line, and this is also known as "Multiverse-theory". This theory was established when the galaxy-groups were noticed by astronomers. In that time were noticed that there are so-called super-groups of the galaxy, and those super-groups, where we're so much galaxy that galaxy involved stars made some cosmologists think that maybe there is also groups of universes in the emptiness. This kind of structures is so enormo...
