Nuclear test case: "Storax Sedan"

In 1962 United States conducted one of the first underground nuclear tests in history and the name of this test was "Storax Sedan". There was one underground test before that, and it was codenamed "Plumbbob Rainier", and it was a 1,7 kiloton nuclear detonation, what mission was to test the systems for underground nuclear tests, what was only allowed a way to test nuclear detonations after 1963, and the nuclear test prohibiting treaty, what prohibited atmospheric, undersea and orbital nuclear tests. Underground tests were allowed because the development of nuclear explosives wanted to allow for scientific and civilian purposes like mining operations and making artificial rivers.


The mission of "Sedan" was to demonstrate high yield underground nuclear detonations and this 104 kiloton device made the crater in the Nevada Test site, what is the national monument. "Sedan" caused very large radioactive fallout around the USA, and that would cause the rise of the resistance against nuclear power and weapons. This device is claimed to give information about the civilian applications of the nuclear weapons. But the truth is that no explosives have only one field of use, and sometimes is claimed that "Sedan" was planned to be the detonator for the bunker buster nuclear weapons.


There is claiming that the USA or Russia have tested the nuclear weapon, what is carried with the similar drills, what is used in some tunnel working sites. Those drills would be dropped near the targeted bunker, and then they would dig those weapons deep inside the ground. And then this weapon would be exploded. The system would be actually laser-drill, what would make the hole for the bomb, what will drop in the tunnel, and the explosion would destroy the target.


 Or sometimes this weapon is called to use the subcritical nuclear mass for making the hole in the ground. The liquid and extreme hot nuclear material will melt the rock and open the route for the hydrogen bomb. In some rumors that weapon would equip with the small nuclear reactor, what mission will be cover this weapon with high-powerful radiation, and that would deny attempts to disarm that weapon, what would seem like the tube, that stands on the feet. And when the hole would be deep enough, the detonation device would be dropped in there.

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
