Why Pakistani nuclear weapons are a bigger threat to India than Chinese stockpile?

The reason why Pakistani nuclear weapons are a bigger threat to India than Chinese nuclear weapons is simple. The conventional strike capacity of Pakistani is lower than the Chinese strike capacity, and that thing can mean that in the conflict Pakistani forces are easier forced to use nuclear weapons if they are in the underdog. The problem with both countries India and Pakistan is that their military forces are not so modern, as their leaders want to believe. 

There is no "first-use policy" in Pakistan, and that means that the high command of the military forces is estimating the situation every time, and make decisions about the use of nuclear weapons. But the main problem is that the military forces strike capacity in both countries is unstable, and that means that at least some parts of the forces are using outdated equipment. The thing is that if Pakistan and India go to open conflict, that thing means that if Pakistani forces are losing the combat, that means that the military commanders would use the nuclear weapons against Indian troops.

The Pakistani nuclear weapons are low yield Uranium bombs, which are using HEU (Highly Enriched Uranium) as the fission material. The yield of those weapons is less than 10 kt. that means those weapons are quite similar to the "Little Boy", the weapon that destroyed Hiroshima. Maybe they use the implosion system, which is basing that the ball-shaped structure will fall by using a high-power explosive to the inner ball of radioactive material. 

In this case, the radioactive material can be plutonium, but it can also every type of fissile material. The thing is that the low-yield nuclear weapons can be extremely lethal if the radioactive material "salted" by using iodine or cobalt, which causes extremely powerful and horrible radioactive fallout.

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...
