Oobleck the fantastic biomaterial.

   



Oobleck the fantastic biomaterial.

As you see from the film above "oobleck" cannot stop a bullet if it is packed in the normal water balloon. But the thing is different if oobleck is packed in the mylar, nylon, or kevlar balloon. Oobleck can use to give a more thick layer for stiff the structure in blown bridges. Or protect the inner layer of spacecraft against heat. The liquid oobleck can deliver over the blown structure for stiffing it.

"Oobleck" is one of the most interesting materials in the world. The material itself is the equal parts of cornstarch and water. One of the abilities of oobleck is that when something hits it, that material is turning very hard. So that thing makes it possible to run on the layer of oobleck, and keep feet dry. Oobleck is a biomaterial that is cheap to produce, and there is one very interesting field, where that material can use.

One of the places where oobleck can use is blown or other lightweight bridges. The structure of the bridge is blown in form. And then there would be a layer of oobleck below the lightweight lid. When some people or vehicles will drive over that bridge, the oobleck will turn harder.

The ability to turn hard makes that kind of material a good thing to use as protective clothing. When somebody hits the vests, which are filled by using oobleck that thing would turn very hard. So the bullet- or hit protecting clothes can use oobleck in some of their layers. Oobleck can also be used to protect spaceships against damages.

The damaged heat shield can cover by using the profile that gets their form by filling them with using oobleck. That makes the repairment part filling in the smaller space. If that bag-looking structure is needed that thing can fill by using oobleck and water that will make it possible to make a single-used heat shield that can use in cases when the heat shield is damaged. That thing can help to get the craft back to Earth.

I don't know would the drops of oobleck turn very hard as the bigger layers. But there is the possibility to drop the oobleck as the drops from the aircraft. Or at the front of ammunition can also put oobleck, which would make it possible to make a new type of flechette or shotgun ammunition.

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
