The cosmic whale


The cosmic whale

Bioships the cosmic version of "Kranken" is one of the most extraordinary ideas in the world of futurism. The idea is that the entire spacecraft would be made by using the living tissue. One of the easiest ways is to cross the fungus and diatoms and then create the layer, where every cell is connected with the small strings. And the layer could be covered by using the polymer, which fits space. The cells of this kind of bioships can be connected to the brains, which is created by living neurons. 

This kind of system could recycle the nutrient, and maybe this feels impossible to make, but maybe in the future, the advanced nano- and biotechnology, what allows to create the artificial DNA or RNA that has precisely wanted properties. Creating this kind of thing, what could be even more intelligent than humans, and what can make things, what living organisms can is fascinating. 

But as you might know, bioships are not an invention of the sci-fi films of the 1970s or "Babylon 5" TV-series. There have been some sci-fi tales about the giant space octopus or jellyfish in the old books, and the idea has turned the giant space whales in the front of the eyes of the people in the movie theaters. 

There have been theories or plans to make the giant artificial squids in the laboratory. In the heads of those artificial monsters would be installed the ball-shaped module, what is connected to the nervous system of that artificial squid, and that kind of systems would be used in many missions from the scientific research to underwater work and military missions. 

If we are thinking about biological spacecraft and underwater vehicles, that kind of thing can have one benefit to regular structures. They can fix themselves without specific commands. And that makes the use of biologically renewing material in the large structures a really interesting thing. But could we sometimes make that thing in real life? 

The answer is that theoretically, the process would not be difficult. The giant squid just be cloned, and the controlling ball would install in the head of that creature, and then it would be connected into it's the nervous system. And if we would want to create the spacecraft, what is using the biological structures, the cells can be covered by using the polymer, which protects the craft against cosmic radiation.

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...
