Genetic engineering could solve many problems of a long-term space flight


What if we would connect our genome the DNA, what makes our skin cells form chlorophyll? That thing would make possible that the human can live in the atmosphere, where is very little oxygen, which makes the spacecraft safer against fire. Fire is the problem in every type of closed space, and if the fire starts in spacecraft the situation would be more catastrophic, than anywhere on the ground. 


If the human can separate oxygen from carbon dioxide, that thing makes possible that there would be no need for the free oxygen in the air. In this case, it is possible to use carbon-dioxide gas in the atmosphere of the spacecraft, and that thing denies the fire in that spacecraft. This kind of solution doesn't necessarily need genetic manipulation, and there is a possibility that in the airways, what are deliver air to lungs will equip with the surgically implanted respirator, which will use the carbon filter for separating the oxygen from the air. 


In the Mars-flight the craft would be equipped with "Slender-man" robots, which can take the injured crew member in the chamber and walk to the base. 


But when we are thinking about skin, what allows the photosynthesis, that thing means that the organism doesn't need C-vitamin at all. The only thing that this thing requires is nutrient and light. The internal layer of space suits can be covered by using light-diodes, which would make the cells to begin the photosynthesis. But this thing is only one of the visions, what the colonization of Mars and other planets would require. 


Food production would happen in that kind of place by using advanced biotechnology. There could be green-alga tanks, where the production of oxygen is connected with food production. If we are thinking about the possibility of accidents in that kind of system, where the nutrient can be created in the spacesuits, that is equipped with the system, what can recycle food this kind of thing is the ultimate tool. 


That means that in the case of accidents the life support system of the spacesuit can start to inject that alga in the veins for keeping a person alive until the rescue craft will come from the Earth. In the case that the accident will happen at the surface of the planet, the equipment that can be used in this case will be a robot, what takes the person in it, and then walk to base or rescue capsule. 


The green alga can also be used as food, and there is a possibility that the crews of those places would also eat meat. That meat would also be created by using the cell cultures, where the muscle cells of the animals would grow to slices of beef, and that kind of food production is an ecological and effective way to make meat also on the Earth.

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...
