Nature and epidemics

Nature and epidemics

Coronavirus is remembering us the thing, that nature is creating new kinds of threats to people all the time, and the treat would always renewing by the new one. When we are thinking about this virus, the thing that makes it different than anything before is that there is more information on the Internet, which is easier to get than any time before these epidemics. So the corona is the world's first media epidemics, what human being is faced in history.

The information, that people would get could be far away from the truth, and that thing can cause a very bad situation. Information is easy to share on the Internet and the thing, what we are seeing is that there are two ways to tell things to people. One is just telling the truth, and give instructions. And the second way, what is better is to tell the reason for some instructions, what is limiting the freedoms of the ordinary people.

If we don't react there are more damages than ordering people to stay inside without telling reasons for that. The thing in the pandemics is that the viruses are coming and going. Epidemics start and end without the reason, or the reason for those epidemics is well known.

Somewhere in the world, some virus has been mutated and cause the symptoms. In the normal movies, the deadly viruses are coming from some African state, but the truth is that the viruses are transforming everywhere in the world. That transformation is natural because whenever the virus would slip in some species the bite of the host's genomes connects to the viruses genomes.

And that means that the viruses can be transforming also in Europe and North America for natural reasons, and those viruses can cause epidemics in the African states. The epidemics, what is harmless to some people can be dangerous to people, who are opposite sides on Earth would work both sides. Epidemics, what is coming from Africa can be dangerous to people, who are living in Europe and North America, but the same way viruses, what is coming from the Western countries can be dangerous to people, who are living in Africa.

The reason for that is the immune system. Normally viruses are not transforming immediately to new viruses. Their genomes are transforming stage by stage and that process is normally so slow, that people who are living in the same area, where transformation happens can be resistant to some viruses. And that resistance causes, that the immune defense can start to fight against viruses earlier.

But people, who are living in long-distance and ever faced that kind of viruses don't have resistance at all, which means that the immune system would take a longer time to create antibodies against the virus. And that can cause the effect, that the dangerous infection can start to suffuse in the body. For creating effective antibodies the immune system must-have model, what those cells are using in that process.

Viruses are always dangerous for the immune system itself because the immune cell can accidentally infect itself, and start to create the viruses, and this is the reason, why HIV is so dangerous. Viruses itself can be destroyed most effectively by using the antibodies because those things are keeping immune cells away from viruses. So without antibodies, the immune cells like macrophages are in danger, when they are eating viruses.

Antimatter motor

Antimatter motor Antimatter would be an effective fuel for interstellar spacecraft Antimatter would be the most effective power source in the world. It will be the most suitable motor for interstellar spacecraft, but the problem is that thing is very reactive. And actually one of the biggest problems with this kind of motor is that the gram of antimatter would turn the entire planet to the molecular nebula. So this kind of motor can produce only outside of our solar system. Producing antimatter would need large particle accelerators, and that kind of systems might look like giant donuts, what is floating on the space. There are two ways to create the antimatter motor, one is to store the anti-ions in the magnetic bottle, where the pushing magnetic field will keep those ions away from the wall of the bottle, and then the antimatter would conduct to the water or some other particle. The huge explosion or annihilation reaction would send the rocket to a very high speed. The antimatt...

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...
