COVID-19 is a good example of the transformation ability of viruses


The thing that makes viruses so difficult to win is their ability to change their genomes. When viruses are traveling through species, they are connecting the genetic material of those species to their genomes. And this means that the viruses are changing all the time. 


This means that when some vaccine against one virus has been created, the new virus is coming from somewhere. There is no change to make the universal vaccine against viruses or even the vaccine, which gives long term protection against the viruses. That means that there are always new viruses, that require new vaccines. 


Vaccines are the most effective tools against viruses because they are easier to create than the serums, which requires the immune cells of the infected person. The serum against viruses is created by using the bone marrow of the person, who is healed from the disease, and then the researchers hope, that the immune cells, what are created by that bone marrow will produce the serum. But that thing is far more difficult to make than vaccines. 


The most effective way to create the vaccine is to destroy the genetic material of the viruses, and then inject the protein cores to the person. The genomes of the virus normally destroyed by using the UV-light. But the problem is that viruses have no own metabolism, and it's difficult that the genomes would be destroyed, and the core antigen of the virus must stay intact. The immune system would detect viruses by their cover antigens, and if those antigens are changed, the immune system cannot detect and react to the right virus.

The next part of writing is meant for futuristic thought, so this kind of technology might be far away in the future.

The image above: nano-robot can destroy genetic material by using UV-light. And that can turn viruses to vaccines


Nanomachines that use UV-light can turn every virus in the blood to the vaccine.


The nanotechnical solution against viruses would be simple. In the blood would swim small robots, which are capturing viruses. Then those robots will terminate the genetic material of the captured viruses. 


The small nanomachine where is the UV-light can be implanted in the body of the person. The simplest model could be the nano-submarine, where is the chamber, where the virus is taken, and then the genome of the virus will be terminated by using some oscillating radiation. 


The nanorobots would hunt the viruses from the blood of the user of that kind of system. Some models could look like small spiders, which are conducting the electromagnetic radiation in the viruses by using their jaws, where is the UV or some other radiation to the genetic material of the viruses.


After those nanorobots, what are using spectroscopes for detecting unknown DNA would find the unknown virus those robots can inject the UV-light in the virus for destroying the DNA, and that kind of system would be made vaccines in the human body by using the viruses, what are already slip in the body. But as I wrote before this kind of system will be far away in the future.

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...

Thoughts about strong leadership

Thoughts about strong leadership Everybody knows, how the dictators would rise in the power of the nation, and the thing what makes people supporting those persons is that they offer strong leadership as the way to make nation proud. And also they have always the same parroting, the foreigners and other nations have a too strong influence in the country. But what makes those persons like some Robert Mugabe or Kim Jong Un to think that they are only possible leaders, and why people would need them? Why there is nobody else allowed to try to come to the head of the state, or even try to challenge those leaders? If they are so popular as they want people to think or believe, why they don't tolerate any kind of opposition if they are done so good and big actions for their people, that they are celebrated in every home in their country. The thing that would return the morale and spine for the nation is the strong leader, who would put the state back in order and row. The thing is ...

Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots.

 Next-generation nanotechnology can be independent-operating molecule-sized robots. "A DNAzyme (red) uses its binding arms to dock at a specific location on an RNA strand (yellow) and then cleaves it at its core. High-resolution, real-time NMR, Electron Paramagnetic Resonance, and Fluorescence Spectroscopy." "As well as Molecular Dynamics Simulations are used to identify the structure. And catalytic mechanisms of the DNAzyme. Credit: HHU/Manuel Etzkorn" (https://scitechdaily.com/dnazymes-how-active-dna-biocatalysts-that-destroy-unwanted-rna-molecules-work/) The active DNA catalysts are the gate to DNA-controlled, independently-operating, molecular-size nanomachines.  The DNAzymes or active DNA biocatalysts are next-generation tools for destroying unwanted RNA. The DNA molecule is one of the tools. That can use for controlling molecular-size machines. DNA is like a chemical computer program. And if the researchers can make synthetic DNA that can make exactly what the...
