The blackest fish on Earth can give new data for stealth research


What the scientists want to do with fish, what skin is so black, that its skin would pull almost all light in it. The skin of the "ultra black" fish absorbs 99,5% of light. The thing is that this kind of skin can be a benefit in scuba-diving and other suits, what mission is to make a person invisible to operate at night time. The problem with the most almost entirely black material is that the material is synthetic and stiff. This "ultra black" skin allows making comfortable suits, which absorb the light. 


So the synthetic materials are uncomfortable to use or they are expensive. And the thing is that the entire black skin of the fish would open the road to a new thing, the biological stealth materials, what can use used in the black overalls, what are used by tactical teams another kind of operators. 


The black skin of fish can be produced by using biotechnology. That skin would produce in the Petri dish by using cell cultures, and the nutrient that is used for feeding the cells can be very accurate mixed, that it would control the growth of the skin cells very effectively. 


Modern technology can make a 3D copy of the structure of "ultra black" skin by using synthetic carbon-based materials. The thing is that all electromagnetic radiation behaves the same way, which means that this structure can be used in stealth-research as the model of the new type of materials, which can make every layer invisible for the radar. 


3D printers, which can make extremely small structures can make a copy of the skin of "ultra black" fish by using the carbon-based synthetic material. That allows also copy, not just color, but also the 3D-structure of the layer, which makes that fish so black that it would merge perfectly to the black background. 


But when we are thinking about the skin of the fish, that thing is slight. This means that the structure of that skin can be copy to the outer layers of helicopters and aircraft. When we are thinking about the carbon-based nano-material, what is very black, we can say that the structure of the skin of this "ultra black" fish can be copied to the surfaces by using 3D printing technology. And that thing can make the helicopters and aircraft harder to see.

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...
