Gyrojet pistols and rifles were created in 1960's for using the rocket ammunition. The orderer of that unique weapon was United States military and the use of rocket ammunition would eliminate the shell of the cartridge, and that could cover the shooting point, what would give the dogs smell of those soldiers. The Gyrojet-weapons were meant for special forces, what would have troubles with the shells. The ammunition would accelerate after leaving the barrel, and that would make those weapons very effective.


One of the reasons for creating this weapon was the idea, that by using rocket ammunition would the pistol and rifle have the same firepower, and also the solution, where the same weapon fits all purposes would be attractive. In some solutions, the gyrojet would equip with the extended barrel and the removable stock, what would give the same accuracy to that gun, as the rifle has. This would remove the need for two guns and ammunition, what makes loading the gun easier. And because the same weapon fits different missions it would be suitable for special forces operators, who spent weeks behind the enemy lines.



And if the weapon should carry as the sidearm and sort range purposes, those extended barrels and stocks could be removed. This Gyrojet solution was the fiasco, as you might know, and the manufacturing of this weapon stopped in 1960's. But after that have been rumors, that military forces have tested Gyrojet-type rocket bullets, what are loaded with the standard ammunition. In this solution, the rocket ammunition would be used with standard assault rifles.



The diameter of that rocket would be same as the bullet, and when the assault rifle would be launched, the shell would be thrown away as the standard ammunition. The rocket ammunition would give more sensitive acceleration for ammunition, and that would make it suitable for smart bullets. Those bullets are actually miniature missiles, what would home to target with the miniature computer. And the aiming for those bullets happens with lasers. The structure of those smart bullets are the same as guided "Copperhead" ammunition, but they are smaller. That ammunition is planned to use in the positions like hostage rescue and anti-sniper operations. In those cases, the nano-robot would mark the target with the laser ray, and then the ammunition will take the target off.

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...
