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...

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...
