The cold war and beyond (Threat of the orbital bombardment)


Titan II

The cold war and beyond (Threat of the orbital bombardment)

The Soviet Union and Russia are not the only nations that are researching the possibility to create the orbital nuclear weapons. The new weapons are created also outside the USA and China, and when we are talking about orbital bombardment systems, every single rocket in the world can operate in that mission. So that means that orbital bombardment systems can also mount in the Ariane or every other rocket in the world. 


The thing in the military systems is that they are not like what we might want them to be. The Titan II could be used as the FOBS(1) or(Fractional Orbital Bombardment System)-system. This rocket was also used to carry satellites to the orbiter, we must realize that it was very suitable for the FOBS carrier. FOBS is an excellent weapon, which allows one to strike every target in the minutes, and this is one version of the "Big Ammo". The satellite, where is nuclear weapon can explode outside the atmosphere, and that thing causes extremely high power EMP-impulse. 


People normally think that the FOBS is always the large-size atom bomb, which has megaton class power. Also, low-yield nuclear weapons line nuclear grenades can be used as the FOBS systems. FOBS is simply the nuclear weapon, what is installed in the orbital satellite, and those weapons are a very big threat to international security, and they might put somebody to think that nuclear warfare can win like some conventional warfare. 


Nuclear grenades like "Grable"(2) might seem very small, and innocent but the truth is that the warhead itself can be multi-purpose use. The plutonium inside the grenade can be exploded by impact energy when the bomb hits the ground after it is fallen through the atmosphere. Or the friction would launch those weapons. 


The difference between modern missiles and the 1960s missiles is that this kind of FOBS weapon can be equipped with the image-recognition and artificial intelligence-based tracking system. That means that the weapon could be extremely sharp, and we know that the development of those weapons is an addictive thing. And also conventional versions of this thing. 


The kinetic energy warheads were filled with concrete. The mission of those warheads was being the artificial meteorites. And the most well-known of those weapons was the "Project Thor" (3). But also normal grenade-profiles were planned to act in this role. The thing is that this kind of system is the top of icebergs. There is a possibility, that even more, lethal weapons are under construction. And one thing why the Russian new weapons are concerning is that western nations are not justifying those weapons.

When robots are laughing and crying.

When robots are laughing and crying.  Does the AI have feelings?  Does the AI have feelings? Or can it be emphatic? The fact is this program code that controls the AI determines if it can give empathic reactions. The problem with the human nervous system is that we don't make a difference in the writing of empathic letters or telling empathic stories human or AI. Our nervous system is not adapted to AI yet. And that's why we cannot separate text written by AI from text that made by humans.  What does somebody make with AI that can emulate feelings? The fact is that the cyborgs are useful tools for infiltration operations. The human-size robots can have WLAN/6G connections with the central computers. Or they can form a neural network that shares information between all group members. The robots can also act as walking neural network-based supercomputers. That can make complicated solutions.  In those networks, each member shares information and their data-handling capacity all o

Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization

    Earth 2.0 has been caused discussion about the possibility to find another civilization The Earth 2.0 or officially Kepler-452b is locating extreme log distance from Earth(1).    A new Earth-type planet has been found near the star, which is similar to our own Sun. The journey to that planet would take 1400 years, even if the spacecraft will reach the speed of the light. The planet has been found in the year 2008, but the confirmation of the existence of that planet has been taken time, but in 2015 the confirmation has been got, and Earth 2.0 has turned true.  The mass of that planet is 1,9 times Earth and the temperature is excellent if we are thinking about liquid water, but the journey to that planet will take so long, that we cannot ever go in there by using regular rockets and technology. The thing is that this kind of planets are the most interesting if we are looking for the lifeforms, which are similar to us, and the problem with that kind of things is that the communicatio

Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission

  Image I Tunguska meteorite and the natural nuclear fission 1) Tunguska UFO-theory  Tunguska meteorite is the mystery, that has been solved once, but then the case has been open again because Lake Cheko was not suitable for an impact crater. That lake has been introducing as an impact crater of the Tunguska meteorite. But the problem is that the shape of that lake is like a swimming pool. And that means it cannot form by a meteorite. So the mystery remains.  Meteorites can launch the natural nuclear fission if they hit the uranium ore, and transfer the impact energy to that ore. And is the thing that the famous "Tunguska" meteorite caused that kind of effect? There is also a theory that some "UFO" explode in that area, but the thing is that it is only theory, but interesting topics for some TV-series.  So I will begin this text by handling that theory, which is one of the incredible and outstanding theories in the world. Officially there is no physical evidence of
