Zero-gravity conditions can give new power to nanotechnology

Zero-gravity conditions can give new power to nanotechnology


One of the cases, where zero-gravity conditions can give a new effect is the scanning tunneling microscope. Scanning tunneling microscope is the key instrument when the atoms are researched, and there is one limit in that system. A scanning tunneling microscope(1) can observe atoms from only one side. But what if it can scan 3D-images? 


The idea of the 3D-scanning by using the scanning tunneling microscopes is that a molecule hovers in the vacuum what this system requires for working. And the microscope is moving around it by taking 3D images from nanotubes or more complicated structures like some proteins.


The thing is that the scanning tunneling microscope can see many things, but what if it could move its stylus around the molecule that hovers freely on air? The reason why this kind of research requires zero-gravity conditions is that the magnetic field can affect the form of the molecule. 


So maybe in the future, we would send the remote-controlled about grape-fruit size satellite laboratories to the orbiter, where the scanning tunneling microscope will observe the molecules by moving it's stylus around the object what hovers freely in the middle of the capsule.

Zero-gravity conditions minimize the effect of gravity and earth rotation in the extremely complicated atom- and molecular structure. 


When we are facing the zero-gravity conditions, we can figure some other cases than growing perfect crystals, where that kind of condition can help science and technology. The thing is that the zero-gravity condition could make the revolution for the nanotechnology. Because in the zero-gravity condition minimizes the disturbing of the platforms, where the atoms and molecules put together. 


The zero-gravity condition makes it possible to connect atoms and molecules without the need to touch any layer. So maybe the nanotechnology of tomorrow is created in the small satellites, what is operated remote-controlled from the Earth. The remote-controlled satellite-laboratories can shot to orbiter by using small rockets, and they can return to the ground where the products salvaged.

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 story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta"

    Image I The story of (Northrop?) TR3A "Black Manta" Sometimes there have been discussions that the mysterious TR3A "Black Manta" was a study project for the B-2 bomber.  That means that TR3A was used as the flying mockup for testing the aerodynamic and control solutions for the B-2 "Spirit" bomber. The thing that supports this thing is that the manufacturer of both planes is Northrop corporation.  Along with "Aurora" was flying one other mysterious aircraft, TR3A "Black Manta". The system is described as the "Stealth VTOL" (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aircraft. Unless the mysterious TR3B, the Northrop TR3A is the conventional VTOL-aircraft, what is using regular jet engines, but what has the stealth-body.  Image II The thing is that the stealth-reconnaissance aircraft, which uses a similar technology with the Northrop B-2 bomber would be an interesting part of the weapon arsenal. There is a possibility that the TR3A was...

Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.

 Terrifying visions of genetic engineering.  The modern Hounds of Baskerville ABW:s (Advanced biological weapons are the modern Hounds of Baskerville. The term ABV means the animal which is genetically engineered. And which is controlled by using some interactive electronic systems. There is a possibility to connect the action camera to dogs collars. And transmit commands to that animal by using electronic systems. Spoken words can use to the commands.  Or they can be a series of sounds that are stored in the sound files. When the operator activates a certain file that sound means a certain command to the animals. There is the possibility to automatize some commands by connecting the system to the image recognition tool. When the action camera sees something that is stored in the memory of the computer. That system sends the coded order to the animal.  Nanotechnology and genetic engineering are the most lethal combination in the world. The ABW:s (Advanced Biological ...
