In the center of the galaxy, time is moving slower.

 



In the center of the galaxy, time is moving slower. 

The image above this text portraits the repair of the space ship near the black hole. And it is made by David A. Hardy. The thing is that the black hole dilates time near it, and that thing would give extra time for the crew to making the repairments. But the time dilation would cause that the craft is traveling to the future. 


The supermassive black hole in the center of the galaxy causes time dilation. This means that time is moving slower in the center of the galaxy than outside of the galaxy. But the thing is that we cannot observe that time dilation if we are in the middle of that phenomenon.


 So we can see that time is moving slower only if we are outside of the effect of time dilation. The major question is, what the extreme version of time dilation would look like if we could observe that phenomenon near it. Have you ever read the book named "Dragon's egg". That book is telling the story about the civilization that lives on the neutron star. And the key element of that book is the time dilation. 


The time dilation is looking like that. The civilization is living on that neutron star. Would create its technology from the stone age to spaceflights in front of the human eyes. That thing is one of the greatest ideas in the books, and the thing is that if some civilization would live near the black hole, those creatures would have time to create their technology in a very short time if that thing is observed outside the area of time dilation. 


So that thing where the massive object is stretching time is fascinating. And the thing is that if we would stand on that object, what dilates time very much, that time what seems being very long in our eyes would look to take only seconds if somebody is observing us from the outside the gravity field. 


In theory, if we would live in the future and we would have suitable technology we would easily travel to the world of tomorrow simply landing to the surface of a neutron star. And if we would spend a couple of hours on that object, the time would travel even years or centuries outside the gravity field of a neutron star. Landing on that object would be impossible because the neutron star is rotating very high speed. And gravity is extremely high, which means it would crush the craft. But maybe we would use that phenomenon 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...

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...
