The lasers are not immune to jamming


In the world of the military, the laser-systems are very popular because they are immune to the jammer system. The fact is that LIDAR (Light Detection and Ranging) -based systems can jam by giving the laser system false laser echoes. Jamming the laser-based rangefinder is quite easy. The laser detector can be jam by pointing it with another laser and that radiation will cause that the system will get the wrong values, and the warhead of the missile will translate the strong radiation echo that the impact is coming. 

In future systems, the counter radiation can send by using the same frequency what has the same frequency as the laser radiation that is sent from the LIDAR-system. When those laser rays will travel through the LIDAR-radiation it will polarize the radiation. And that thing will twist the radiation waves of the LIDAR system. 

If the laser rangefinder is pointed by another laser that causes the echo what the system detects is too strong. And this kind of way to use the counter radiation can cause that the missile will explode too early. In this case to the laser will target another laser, which will disturb the aiming and ranging system. 

In the modern cruise missile, the LIDAR-based systems are in use at altimeters and targeting systems. In those systems the echo, what the LIDAR-system will get will be twisted. The twisting of those radiation echoes can do by using dust, which absorbs part of that radiation or making a hologram, or sending another laser ray through the LIDAR-system's laser radiation. 

If the LIDAR-based altimeter gets twisted echoes, that can cause that the thing like a cruise missile will rise too high. If the echo is too strong that thing will cause the computer of the missile to think that the missile is flying too low. And if the echo is too weak the system translates that the missile or drone flies too low. And if the change of altitude is too down and flight altitude is about 100 meters, the drone can crash immediately.

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
