The U-2 and RQ-4 "Global Hawk" recon plane and Pegasus-rocket can be an excellent couple for launching satellites.

One very good idea for cheap spaceflight is to connect the U-2 Recon plane, and Pegasus rocket. The idea is very simple, and it is that the small Pegasus rocket can be equipped with wings, and it can put on the rack, where is installed the wheels. Then the U-2 recon plane would pull the Pegasus-rocket to the maximum altitude by using the rope, and the technology, what is used in this idea is similar, what is used with the sailplane.

The U-2 plane would pull the Pegasus to the maximum altitude, and then the rope will be released. Then the Pegasus rocket would start the engine, and the idea is that this rocket would have more weight in the tail, and the nose would rise upwards automatically. That effect is important because it avoids the hit to the plane because the U-2 is not so fast moving aircraft as fighters are. And it cannot dive so fast as the fighters can. The rope must be very long, and that can be made by the most modern materials. That makes the launching safer.

The thing is that the wings would be similar, what is used in the cruise missiles, and they would also allow the gliding. The reason, why the rocket must pull the nose up is avoiding the aircraft. In fact, this mission to pull the Pegasus rocket can also give to the RQ-4 "Global Hawk" drone aircraft. That capacity can be used to launch small size satellites when there is a need for fast overflight operations, what the opponent should not predict, and those overflights might be surprised because they can come from every direction on the Earth. This aircraft- missile combination can give the USAF global ASAT capacity.

In this scenario, the small-size drones, what can fly extreme high altitude would tug the ASAT missiles, what can be actually the Pegasus rockets, Those modified missiles are equipped with the ASAT warheads, and they can release their cargo anywhere on this planet. This would be a very interesting option for the lightweight ASAT weapons, which can hit also against the higher altitude targets than the satellites, what is flying in the LEO (Low Earth Orbiter).

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...

Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.

 Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.  The modern Hounds of Baskerville ABW:s (Advanced biological weapons are the modern Hounds of Baskerville. The term ABV means the animal which is genetically engineered. And which is controlled by using some interactive electronic systems. There is a possibility to connect the action camera to dogs collars. And transmit commands to that animal by using electronic systems. Spoken words can use to the commands.  Or they can be a series of sounds that are stored in the sound files. When the operator activates a certain file that sound means a certain command to the animals. There is the possibility to automatize some commands by connecting the system to the image recognition tool. When the action camera sees something that is stored in the memory of the computer. That system sends the coded order to the animal.  Nanotechnology and genetic engineering are the most lethal combination in the world. The ABW:s (Advanced Biological ...

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...
