Russia is starting to deploy its naval vessels(1) with a Club-K container missile system.


Club-K(2) is the weapon, which gives every single vessel on the ocean extreme high strike capacity against all targets. That kind of container missile system can move undercover in the containers, where is painted civilian markings, and they can be carried even to neutral states. And that gives them a very high striking capacity against every target, what are in the range of that missiles system. 


The ability to transport those missiles unseen in the undercover containers causes rumors, that those Club-K systems have been planned to place at Central America or Cuba, and that thing might cause the next missile crisis. The Club-K type systems have extremely high accuracy, and they can be carried to the operational area by using trucks or by every other vehicle like container ships or trains. And that thing can cause the next missile crisis (3).


The system is hard to detect, and that means it influences the balance of power and causes a similar effect with the stealth bombardment systems. The difference between the SS-4 Sandal (4) and SS-5 Skean (5) system that needed tanking, which was in the main role in the missile crises in 1962 is far behind the Club-K system, which is very highly mobilized and can shoot the missiles in seconds after the command. In the Cold War era, there was a scenario that SS-20 Saber(6) missiles were planned for a position in Cuba. Those weapons could be a higher threat than the SS-4 system could ever be. And the Club-K is far ahead of the SS-20. 


When we are thinking about the possibility of an arm that kind of system with a nuclear warhead, by putting those missiles in the liquid hydrogen is possible to avoid the Geiger meters and other radioactive or chemical detectors. The very cold condition denies the vaporization of the chemicals like fuel and explosives. 


And the low temperature slows the oscillation of the nuclear material, which means that the radioactive sniffers cannot find that system very easily. When the missile is put in operation, the temperature must rise. Normally that kind of missiles uses standard jet-fuel, which makes them hard to detect.

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.

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...
