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.

The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta"

    Image I The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta" Sometimes there have been discussions that the mysterious TR3A "Black Manta" was a study project for the B-2 bomber.  That means that TR3A was used as the flying mockup for testing the aerodynamic and control solutions for the B-2 "Spirit" bomber. The thing that supports this thing is that the manufacturer of both planes is Northrop corporation.  Along with "Aurora" was flying one other mysterious aircraft, TR3A "Black Manta". The system is described as the "Stealth VTOL" (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft. Unless the mysterious TR3B, the Northrop TR3A is the conventional VTOL-aircraft, what is using regular jet engines, but what has the stealth-body.  Image II The thing is that the stealth-reconnaissance aircraft, which uses a similar technology with the Northrop B-2 bomber would be an interesting part of the weapon arsenal. There is a possibility that the TR3A was...

Who really was Plato, the great philosopher?

When we are thinking about the great philosopher Plato, we are thinking about the man who established the Academy of Athens. And we might remember that this man was a traveler. He traveled in many places in his life and wrote many texts and books, which still is very respected thoughts about the state and other things. When we are looking at the books or series of books, we are facing the thing, that there were lots of texts. If we want to use criticism we must notice that the model of the ideal state is rising the kings in the very high position, and the thing would flatter the kings. And sometimes I have thought that maybe that famous model of the ideal state is written by somebody else. The thing is that the model, where the philosophers rule the state behind the lines of soldiers could be written for the persons like Justinian, who was really flattered. The thing is that this kind of writings was meant for flatter the rulers, who would not persecute philosophers, even they had d...

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...
