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.

There is a suggestion that dark matter may have deformed another universe.

The researchers suggest that dark matter is the deformed dark universe. Or in the most exciting theories, dark matter is the dark universe inside our universe. In that theory dark matter is entangled with the visible material. That theory is taken from the multiverse theory. There our visible universe is one of many universes. The other universes can be invisible because their electrons and quarks are different sizes. And that thing makes those other universes invisible to us.  Another hypothesis is that the hypothetical other universes send radiation that radiation from our universe pushes away. Things like invisible 9th. planet causes ideas that maybe there is another universe in our universe. The thing that makes the mysterious dark matter interesting is that. The dark matter can form structures that can be similar to visible material. But those structures are not visible.  The multiverse theory is not new. The thing in that theory is that there are multiple universes at this moment

The neuroscientists get a new tool, the 1400 terabyte model of human brains.

"Six layers of excitatory neurons color-coded by depth. Credit: Google Research and Lichtman Lab" (SciteechDaily, Harvard and Google Neuroscience Breakthrough: Intricately Detailed 1,400 Terabyte 3D Brain Map) Harvard and Google created the first comprehensive model of human brains. The new computer model consists of 1400 terabytes of data. That thing would be the model. That consists comprehensive dataset about axons and their connections. And that model is the path to the new models or the human brain's digital twins.  The digital twin of human brains can mean the AI-based digital model. That consists of data about the blood vessels and neural connections. However, the more advanced models can simulate electric and chemical interactions in the human brain.  This project was impossible without AI. That can collect the dataset for that model. The human brain is one of the most complicated structures and interactions between neurotransmitters, axons, and the electrochemica

Nano-acoustic systems make new types of acoustic observation systems possible.

' Acoustic diamonds are a new tool in acoustics.  Another way to make very accurate soundwaves is to take a frame of 2D materials like graphene square there is a hole. And then electrons or laser beams can make that structure resonate. Another way is to use the electromagnetic field that resonates with the frame and turns electromagnetic energy into an oscillation in the frame.  Nano-acoustic systems can be the next tool for researching the human body. The new sound-wave-based systems make it possible to see individual cells. Those soundwave-based systems or nano-sonars are tools that can have bigger accuracy. Than ever before. The nano-sonar can use nanodiamonds or nanotubes as so-called nano-LRAD systems that send coherent sound waves to the target. In nanotube-based systems, the nanotube can be in the nanodiamond.  The term acoustic diamond means a diamond whose system oscillates. The system can create oscillation sending acoustic or electromagnetic waves to the diamond. Diamond
