The amateur astronomer might solve the source of the famous Wow!-signal. And there is a similar star to our sun. 

The name of that astronomer who found where the Wow! (1)-signal came is Alberto Caballero (2). This is the big step for science, the first time the possibility that the Wow!-signal is coming from other civilizations has taken seriously. There is a possibility that the source of the signal is in the area where is the yellow star. The star is similar to our sun. That thing increases the interest in this mysterious signal that was heard in 1977. The Wow!-signal captured once, and then there were no such signals, what is remarkable. In some explanations, the comets caused the so-called Wow!-signal (3). 

If the source of that signal is some malfunctioned electric device that thing would happen more than once. And the radio telescopes would not recognize microwaves. Microwave telescopes are normally at the satellites away from the Earth's atmosphere. They are operating with radio frequencies. So that means that there is a possibility that the sender of that famous signal is a similar civilization, what we are. Or let's hope that they are not "too much" like us. 

The location of the star is probably calculated by using the method, where the point the Wow!-signal came calculate for both antennas of the "Big Ear"- telescope.  That thing eliminates the error in the computer code and gives two points, what are opposite side to both of them. And then the large optical telescopes can look at those points, or in this case, the researcher would just take the star lists for both of those points, and that thing could make possible that one amateur astronomer could locate the point, where that famous signal came. 

The thing that makes the Wow!-signal so interesting is that the signal could hear only once. That thing almost closes away from the possibility that the neutron star or pulsar is sending that signal.  But of course, there is a possibility that the neutron star is just fallen.  And change the direction of its poles. But I don't believe that thing even myself. So the Wow!-signal is one of the most fascinating signals ever captured. 

If the sender of this signal is the alien race, the reason why it is sent is a mystery. In some theories, the Wow!-signal meant for some kind of lighthouse or calibration tool. But that thing is a hypothesis. But if there is a similar star with our sun at the location, where the signal came. That thing increases the interest in that mysterious signal what was captured in 1977.

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. Credit: HHU/Manuel Etzkorn" (https://scitechdaily.com/dnazymes-how-active-dna-biocatalysts-that-destroy-unwanted-rna-molecules-work/) The active DNA catalysts are the gate to DNA-controlled, independently-operating, molecular-size nanomachines.  The DNAzymes or active DNA biocatalysts are next-generation tools for destroying unwanted RNA. 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...
