Sampo the magical artifact in Finnish mythology

Sampo the magical artifact in Finnish mythology



Kalevala the national epos of Finland is full of symbols. And maybe Sampo was the symbol of person or machine, what people can benefit in their life. But for benefiting that thing, they must realize the value of that thing, what seems like worthless. The thing is that the value of a thing can see when somebody can make contact with it and start to operate with it.

So if people would get benefit from the Sampo they must keep their mind open. And they should not close any things from the mind, even if they seem to be unrealistic.

Today I had an idea that for some researchers Sampo, what is mentioned in Kalevala as the mythical artifact, or celestial sphere would mean that the thing, what creates money, salt and corn. That thing has been explained in many ways, and one explanation, that is connected with UFOs is interesting. The explanation is that Sampo was the communication or data transmitting between some things, what was staying on the ground, and the Black Knight satellite.

This means that this thing could be a portable device, which would send the image from satellite to the user. And if we are thinking that the blacksmith would make that system, that could mean that this person just fixed a couple of electrodes. This is one of the most fascinating and original explanations of this thing. In this theory that device would be dropped from some kind of humanoid, but as you know that this thing is not a scientific theory. But it is a theory as well as other theories.

But there is another explanation of Sampo, and this explanation is very interesting. The thing is that Sampo could be some person, who could make those things. The thing, that is called the celestial sphere could be the curriculum vitae, and the people like Vainamoinen understood the value of that person, who might be different than others. Or that person knew where to take those things like money, salt, and corn. In this version, Sampo was the person, who had the models, what could be made for creating the faked money. And then the people were going to the marketplace and test that money with tradesmen.

And of course, another version is that Sampo created those things by using some kind of genetic manipulation and chemical reactions. But that thing is straight from some humorous book, and this is why we must be careful when we are writing about this kind of thing. The thing is that Sampo is many ways symbolic machine or artifact.

Maybe it symbolizes things like some kind of steam or water-powered hammer. If some village would have a perfect place for that kind of tool, that would mean that it could rent that machine to other people, and this would make them rich. In this scenario, Sampo is some kind of place like race, where water flows with very high speed.

And that allows it to give power to the mill or some giant hammer, which is used for creating heavier parts than a single person can. So that might mean that Sampo symbolizes the opportunity to get the benefit of something, what is original and belongs to something, what is very special and reserved to people, who have skills and abilities to see things that other people don't understand.

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...

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...
