B-52H Bombers are now testing new AGM-183A hypersonic cruise missiles. 


The AGM-183A ARRW ("Arrow") ("Air-Launched Rapid Response Weapon") SCRAMJET-driven hypersonic cruise missiles are entering service, and they are one of the most powerful weapons on Earth. Or they are not entering service yet. They are under critical tests. The thing is that there are little things, that people are allowed to know about those highly classified projects, and the fact is that there might be even more deadly weapons under development in all countries, what are mentioned. 

The AGM-183 ARRW weapons are the USAF response to the similar weapons of Russia and China. The development of the hypersonic cruise missiles and its many variations is one of the most revolutionary things in the military field and the sad example of how the international contracts of the weapon disarming are not working. 

The hypersonic cruise missiles are an extremely deadly weapon even if they are using only the kinetic energy warheads. But the same systems can be equipped with a uranium bumper, which makes it a giant uranium bullet, or it can carry a thermonuclear warhead. This kind of weapon can install in the B-52H or some other strategic bombers, or they can shoot at targets by using the ballistic missiles. 

In the last model, the hypersonic missile would shoot outside the atmosphere by using some ballistic missile, and then the hypersonic missile will start to glide to the target. The speed that the ballistic missile can give is enough that the SCRAMJET engine can ignite. Similar hypersonic missiles are entering service in many countries like China, Russia, and India. 

The GBU-39 SDB 1 (The small diameter bomb 1 ) GBU-53/ StormBreaker SDB 2 (The small diameter bomb 2)  and why people should concern about this kind of weapon? 

The SDB-weapons are extremely small-size guided bomb units or GBUs, which are used since the 1970s. The SDB can have satellite, laser, image, or IR-guidance like in many other similar weapons. And they might have HEAT (aimed explosive), Thermobaric, or normal high-explosive warhead, which makes them very capable to destroy things like aircraft, vehicles, bunkers, tanks. SDB created because the light of the rocket booster of a missile can uncover the location of a stealth fighter. And those weapons are created also for surgical strikes in urban areas.  

Thermobaric explosives are giving them also large kill-radius. And that kind of weapon is hard to detect if they are dropped from the stealth planes. The high accuracy of those weapons is making them also capable to make surgical strikes against enemy leaders or some other persons. So the SDB can knock-out vehicles from the city area without secondary losses if that weapon uses an aimed warhead where the explosion is aimed in a certain direction.

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
