What if we would someday travel to the stars as the routine operation?


What if we would someday travel to the stars as the routine operation?

In the "What if" channel was a tale about the situation, that someday we maybe can travel around the galaxy by using the speed, what is over the speed of light. In fact, if we someday could make those journeys, we must understand that real opportunity to the journeys to another star was reserved to the colonialists and scientists. In this version, there would not any tourist trips around the universe, and the reason for establishing the colonies would be that the growing population of the planet Earth and mankind need more and more fuel and raw materials for supporting our life form, and enlarging the circle of mankind.

And here we must ask, why we haven't traveled to another solar system yet. The reason for that is that there are no close solar systems, where we could fly in the humane time, and that's why we haven't created that technology. Actually, we haven't yet found any suitable planet for colonization. That's why we have not created technology for interplanetary traveling.

If we are thinking about the suitable engines for that journey, there could be possible to use photon- or radio wave engines, but the thrust of the photons or radio waves is so little, that there would need to use another motor to increase the speed of the spacecraft in the level of 99% of the speed of light. And then the photon rocket would increase the speed of the craft to the speed of light. The thing in the interplanetary spacecraft would be vehicles, which is a very big size.

The nuclear engines might open the route to the entire solar system

There is a possibility that those very large spacecraft would ever land on some planets and the resupplying of those crafts would happen in the orbital trajectories, and they would use ion or some other more conventional motors for traveling in our solar system. And we must handle the interplanetary traveling before we can fly to another solar system. When we are thinking the ion motors, we could operate them by using the solar panels, and giant fuel cells, but the real suitable thing for that engine will be a lightweight nuclear reactor, what would use Plutonium or some other extreme heavy element, like Neptunium or Einsteinium as the fuel.

This kind of systems could be possible in the distant future. When we are thinking about the NERVA system, there is a possibility to use that engine in the Mars trips, but for the more distance, there is a need to use more effective systems. And if we would think the extra stellar journey, we might face the thing, that the needed systems would be more complicated than some ion motors, what allows the spacecraft travel in the interplanetary missions.

The energy source for the WARP system is problematic

But for the interstellar journey would need to create vehicles, what are more enormous, than those interplanetary vehicles can ever be, and the size of those vehicles would be over 100 kilometers long because there is a need to create the storage of fuel, equipment, and life support systems. The fuel, what those vehicles use would be antimatter because the self-sustained fusion is very hard to create.

The WARP-drive would need very high voltage to create the speed, what crosses the speed of light, and the thing is that those systems, what would be magnet tracks, what are similar with MDD (Magneto Dynamic Drive) drive, what is used in the ships need the extremely high voltage to suck the ions through the tube with the speed of the light. The thing, what makes this drive problematic is that there must be very high voltage magnets, that enough ions could travel through the track, that the speed of the spacecraft would rise in the short period, that means a couple of years.

If the system uses antimatter, in the case of the explosion the entire planet would be in danger. In this scenario, the antimatter would be stored in the magnetic bottle, where it lays in the middle of the bottle. And if there are problems with those magnets, the antimatter would contact with the core of the bottle, and the spacecraft would turn to energy in the annihilation reaction.

The idea of the WARP is that the magnets will suck the ions through the tube, and that would give the spacecraft the speed of light, and the system is similar, what is used in the hypothetical submarine in the Tom Clancy's book "Hunt for the Red October". The thing is that in the water is no need for the very high voltage because water is a thinner element than space, where are fewer ions than in the water.

Colonialists could make Dyson's spheres by using hollow graved asteroids, which are used as artificial planets.

But when we are thinking about the colonization of the entire galaxy the journeys between the stars would take so long time, that the journeys between the stars would be one-way trips, and that's why the planets, what are orbiting those stars should be habitable. Or there is one very fascinating way to habitable the solar systems.

And that thing is to create the own planet by making some asteroid hollow. After that, the colonialists would transfer a couple of icy comets inside that asteroid, what is working as Dyson's sphere. This kind of colonization would make possible to conquer other solar systems, there are no planets in the habitable zone. In this hypothesis, the colonialists would make the colonies to many other solar systems by using this technology, where the hollow asteroids would use as the planets. Those Dyson's spheres would rotate with the speed, which makes the artificial gravity to the inner layer of that ball, and the colonialists would live in that base, in similar conditions with Earth.

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 ...

Facebook and dominance of the media.

The position of Facebook is dominating and that causes concern. Facebook is a well-known and commonly used service. And that thing causes that the information is starting to pile up in that service. That information contains data that we might want to hide. Facebook is a network-based service that can use for many purposes from marketing to intelligence.  Facebook was down and the thing cost about half a million dollars per hour to that service. That shutdown has shown how dominating that service has been growing. Facebook is a powerful tool. It can use to track the networks of people.  Artificial intelligence can show the network map of the people who are using that service. The data that travels between certain members of the network can show how often those people are contacting each other. There is a lot of criticism against Facebook but the fact is that everybody is using that thing.  The attitudes toward Facebook are conflicting. People are criticizing that service ...
