The deepest hole on Earth


The deepest hole on Earth

The super deep borehole in the Kola peninsula is one of the deepest man-made holes on Earth. The depth of that hole is 12 262 meters, and the name of this hole is officially SG-3.  Soviet scientists stopped drilling when temperature rise 180 degrees Celsius. Sometimes the temperature is meant to be 300 degrees of Celsius. In the Sakhalin island is the hole, what depth is 12 345 meters. And in the Kuwait oil field is drilled the borehole, what is 12 285 meters deep, and as you see, there is the technology that is used in those holes includes very tough steel.

The thing that the drill would not able to operate in the 180 degrees Celsius is sometimes wondering me because the blades of the drill would not stand the temperature of 180-300 Celsius. Those blades are made by using Chromium steel, and the thing is that those materials would not melt at a very low temperature. The melting point of the chromium is 1800 degrees Celsius, and the thing, what happened might be that the hydraulic oil or lubricant would be steamed or started to burn.

By using the laser drill is possible to create even deeper holes, and the laser drill is actually the laser, what is used to make a hole to the Earth.  The idea of those super deep holes is that scientists tried to drill the hole straight to magma, and sometimes there was introduce thoughts that there is possible to make the probe, what travels inside the nucleus of the Earth. There have been introduced the plans, what kind of vehicle could be the probe, what can be sent to magma.

The craft, what would send inside the magma would be an absolutely round artificial diamond ball, what will communicate with command center by using the sonar and LRAD system. The thing what would be the most important in those crafts is, that the ball must be absolutely symmetric because it must resist the extreme heat and temperature.  The craft, what could be made by the artificial diamond, what would be the carbon fiber, that made tougher by pressing it with explosives. The carbon fiber would be protected by the iron, and that would isolate it from magma. The probe can use nanotechnology and it can be the size of the ping pong ball or even smaller.

The system might have two layers, and there would be a vacuum between those layers. In the simple model, the inner ball would hang to the outer ball by using metal wires. The magnets would keep the inner ball separated from the outer ball, and that could make possible to create the craft, what can dive in the nucleus of the Earth by using the electromagnetic drive, what can take the needed energy from the heat of the magma. But of course, this thing is only a theoretical way to travel in magma.

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like.

.     The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like. Above is the image of the nano-submarine. There is introduced an idea, that this kind of system would equip with living neurons, which makes it like some kind of artificial bug or mosquito. The idea is that the robot can take the nutrient by using the robot tube, which acts like a proboscis. The neurons can get nutrients and the rest of the machine can use small fuel cells or the energy to that system can deliver by using the radio waves. Futurologists are thinking about the ideas, what the hybridization of the neurons and machine would look like? Could the hyper-technical civilization look like the group of midget submarines? Those submarines might take nutrients for the neurons, what is living in them. The purpose of the midget submarines, which might be size less than a couple of millimeters would maximize the survivability of the neurons. One of the most intere...

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...
