One improvement for Orion spacecraft

https://avoimenkoodinmaailma.blogspot.com/ Kimmo Huosionmaa The normal rifle could launch Highly Enriched Plutonium or Californium bullets in the back of the craft, and then that ammunition would target the electromagnetic radiation by using the parabolic antenna in the back of the craft. The gun would release the bullet in the middle of the antenna, and the bullet would go thru the focal point of radiation, what would cause the nuclear fission in that piece of the highly enriched nuclear isotope. In this system standard ammunition, that is filled with gunpowder and that would make the structure of that system simpler than some magnetic rails or some other electromagnetic solutions. That would give a more sensitive punch, and makes easier to adjust the speed of the device. Sometimes those bullets were planned to fill with Lithium, and the radiation would be mixed radio and laser rays. In fact, the normal Lithium batteries could be used in that motor. The energy of this spacecraf...

New nuclear test photographs released from 1950's

TEAPOT TURK (Fireball) (Picture I) https://avoimenkoodinmaailma.blogspot.com/ Kimmo Huosionmaa In the 1950's the United States military and Atomic Energy commission accomplished many nuclear tests in the Nevada Desert. From those tests collected the information, what was used in the creation and developing of the new kind of nuclear tests. Some of those photographs and films were classified because they were uncovered the structure of the nuclear device. One of those films was taken during nuclear test TEAPOT TURK. The film is taken by using rapatronic cameras, what are also called "rope trick" cameras, what means that there were many single-shot cameras in the electric wire. And the electric wire allowed launching those cameras as the series, what allowed to make films for extremely fast movements. Those cameras were also used to take slow-motion pictures of bullets, what are flying in the range. The famous film where the bullet cuts playing cards and appl...
