Another cathode engine, the X-ray rocket motor


The X-ray engine is one of the hypothetical transportation systems for interstellar engines. The capacity of this type of engine is the reason because the engine pushes and pulls at the same time. The idea of the X-ray engine is similar to other cathode-ray based rocket systems. 

----------------------------------------------




The diagram of the X-ray engine


1) Anode 

2) Electron flow

3) Electron cannon 

4) X-ray radiation. 


There are two versions of the X-ray engine. 


1) The cathode system, what is mounted internally in the spacecraft. The electrons would shoot to an anode, and then that thing will send the X-rays backward. And that makes the engine acting as a photon rocket. 

But the anode is working like the sail in sailing ships. When electrons are hitting it, it would increase the thrust, because electrons are pulling the craft forward. 

2) The external particle accelerators. The electrons that are shot from the particle accelerators can pull to the metal plate, which is creating the X-rays by loading the positive electric load.

---------------------------

But in this model, the electrons would hit the cathode, which is acting like a rag. And the electrons are pushing the craft forward. The thing that would give the extra thrust is the X-ray radiation that goes backward of the system. This kind of engine would open the road to the solar system. There are two models of this engine. 

The engine what bases the cathode ray, what based the system, what is mount in the craft itself. The recoil of the electrons must minimize when they are leaving the cathode tube, and hit the anode. The second version is the system, where the cathode rays are shot from the particle accelerators, and then they would pull to the layer that gives the X-rays by turning the plate into an anode. So if the plate has a positive electric load, that would pull the electrons to it, and that will send the X-rays backward.

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...
