Laser-broom would sweep space junk from orbit

Laser-broom would sweep space junk from orbit

The idea of this system is simply, laser rays would just sweep the space junk away from the orbit, but the problem is that this kind of system is rumored to serve rather military purposes than just sweep the debris out from orbiting trajectory(1).

One of the major problems with that kind of system is that if they are used against big pieces of debris, that thing would cause that the thing would be crushed to the smaller particles. Those particles are difficult to see, and the smaller debris is the bigger problem than the big particles, which are easier to see.

Use of small laser satellites to clean debris away

Space debris is a very big problem because impacting those particles can destroy the billion dollars satellites and space probes, and that is the reason, why the orbital trajectories wanted to be clean from that debris, and there is one very interesting project, what might interest people. The project is called OLaMoT(2). Orbital laser momentum transfer-project or OLAMOT is basing the small-size satellites and lasers, which are used to clean the debris from the orbiter.

In OLAMOT-project Finish Geodetic Institute is researching the artificial intelligence-based solution that helps to aim the laser. Another participant Thales corporation would research, what kind of laser would be suitable in this operation.

The project what is made between Thales corporation and the FGI (Finnish Geodetic Institute) is based on the satellites, what is pushing dangerous debris to the atmosphere, and that means that this kind of small satellites can detect the space debris, and then give the laser-impulse to that object, what would release the molecular cloud from the outer layer of that thing. That molecular vapor would act as a small rocket motor and push the piece of debris to the atmosphere without making new debris to the trajectory.

The OLAMOT-system must react very fast when it notices the debris, and that's why the system must react extremely fast, and that's why the system might use artificial intelligence to locate the targets. The idea of this artificial intelligence-based system is similar to the software, which recognizes the faces in mobile telephones. But at this time, it would recognize the debris. Then it would aim it and launch the laser system.

The thing, that makes OLAMOT interesting is that the system is targeted to the smallest parts of space debris, which is very hard to detect. But if the satellite would have an "auto-fire button" it can be a very interesting tool for sweeping the orbiter, and of course, that thing would be useful also for use in the killer satellites.

The FGI is researching the system, which would detect the space debris, by using the image detection system, where is connected to the trajectory information of the satellite and debris. The thing that makes this system interesting is that there is a possibility to make the system, which would use artificial intelligence to detect and launch the laser against the target. If that process would be automatized, this system can be revolutionary in space technology.

When robots are laughing and crying.

When robots are laughing and crying. Does the AI have feelings? Does the AI have feelings? Or can it be emphatic? The fact is this program code that controls the AI determines if it can give empathic reactions. The problem with the human nervous system is that we don't make a difference in the writing of empathic letters or telling empathic stories human or AI. Our nervous system is not adapted to AI yet. And that's why we cannot separate text written by AI from text that made by humans. What does somebody make with AI that can emulate feelings? The fact is that the cyborgs are useful tools for infiltration operations. The human-size robots can have WLAN/6G connections with the central computers. Or they can form a neural network that shares information between all group members. The robots can also act as walking neural network-based supercomputers. That can make complicated solutions. In those networks, each member shares information and their data-handling capacity all o

Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization

Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization The Earth 2.0 or officially Kepler-452b is locating extreme log distance from Earth(1). A new Earth-type planet has been found near the star, which is similar to our own Sun. The journey to that planet would take 1400 years, even if the spacecraft will reach the speed of the light. The planet has been found in the year 2008, but the confirmation of the existence of that planet has been taken time, but in 2015 the confirmation has been got, and Earth 2.0 has turned true. The mass of that planet is 1,9 times Earth and the temperature is excellent if we are thinking about liquid water, but the journey to that planet will take so long, that we cannot ever go in there by using regular rockets and technology. The thing is that this kind of planets are the most interesting if we are looking for the lifeforms, which are similar to us, and the problem with that kind of things is that the communicatio

Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission

Image I Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission 1) Tunguska UFO-theory Tunguska meteorite is the mystery, that has been solved once, but then the case has been open again because Lake Cheko was not suitable for an impact crater. That lake has been introducing as an impact crater of the Tunguska meteorite. But the problem is that the shape of that lake is like a swimming pool. And that means it cannot form by a meteorite. So the mystery remains. Meteorites can launch the natural nuclear fission if they hit the uranium ore, and transfer the impact energy to that ore. And is the thing that the famous "Tunguska" meteorite caused that kind of effect? There is also a theory that some "UFO" explode in that area, but the thing is that it is only theory, but interesting topics for some TV-series. So I will begin this text by handling that theory, which is one of the incredible and outstanding theories in the world. Officially there is no physical evidence of
