The air cushion train

The air cushion train

The one answer for the levitating trains would be the solution, where both sides of the trains would be magnetic track. This system would hover on the normal air cushion when it can drive over the standard layer. So it would necessarily need special tracks, but the accelerators, which are similar to railgun need energy. Those structures can install on the sides of the track, and they could be installed. But the air cushion train would operate also over pure concrete elements.

The difference for the hyperloop is that this solution would not need a tube around it. And this system would operate above the normal tracks. Wich makes it cheaper than hyperloop because there is needed to put the accelerators to both sides of the track, but the problem is that this kind of system, what hovers above the air cushion would need something, what denies the damages if there are problems with control, and the vehicle would go to out from the track .

But the air cushion would allow this system to operate over the water. And the magnetic accelerators would be pulled over the water if those magnets are connected to buoys, which means that those magnet lines can be laid from the ships. That makes possible to benefit rivers and lakes for this kind of transportation, and this system would have multiple platforms, where it can operate. And that kind of idea could revolutionize logistics and transportation. But those ideas are also very interesting to think about.

An idea of the air cushion is, that it would minimize the friction. But also magnetic levitation can be used for the same purpose. The problem with magnetic levitation is that it needs a brand new infrastructure because pushing magnets must installed in the layer, but magnetic levitation is also a very simple solution, and it bases that magnets push each other away, if they have same mark polarity against together.

So if the form of the train would be aerodynamic, that thing will decrease the need for energy. The idea is that the more conventional system than hyperloop would be the interphrase between hyperloop and conventional trains. The major problem of hyperloop is that it travels in the tubes. The air would be removed from the tube, which would minimize the friction.

Hyperloop can travel forward by using a vacuum pull, where the lower pressure ahead of the vehicle would pull it in the tube, and the second version is the version, which will travel above the layer by using magnetic levitation. The speed of the train will be extremely high, and because there is no air in the tube, that removes the friction. But the system is brand new, and it has not tested yet.

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...

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...
