Killer drones are playing an important role in Ukraine.



Bayraktar TB2 Runway (Wikipedia/Baykar Bayraktar TB2)


Killer drones or UCAVs (Unmanned Combat Aerial Vehicles) are playing important role in Ukraine. They are shown their abilities in many conflicts from Afghanistan to Azerbaidzhan and Ukraine. When we are talking about combat drones normally people mean large-size drones that are shooting missiles and dropping bombs. The used drones are Turkish made Baykar Bayraktar TB2-lerge size drones. 

Those UCAVs:s are quite easy to drop by using manned jet fighters. So the use of the UCAVs requires air superiority. Those UCAVs require complicated technology. Those large-size drones are only remote-controlled or automatized attack aircraft.

Another type of those systems is "loitering munition". The miniature cruise missile can observe the area. And make kamikaze attacks.


But there is another drone type that causes concern in security authorities. The terrorists can get those systems called "loitering munitions" quite easily. They must just equip the remote control toy with a warhead and attack against targets. 

Because that loitering ammunition is so small they are hard to shoot down. The weight of the smallest versions of those systems is less than 2 kg. And that means they are not very big. Those loitering ammunition can slip into the area and then shoot against the target. 

The kamikaze drones can carry to the operational area by using aircraft or another drone that drops this system to the area. Also, soldiers or agents can carry those drones to attack positions. And then they can shoot against targets by using satellites or an internet connection. That kind of system might not be very effective against things like main battle tanks. But they can use against lighter vehicles, aircraft, or headquarters. 

And they can be extremely dangerous in the wrong hands. Those killer drones can also use in assassination missions. There is a vision that secret agents will slip that kind of drone to opponents' capital city and attack against key personnel with this kind of system.

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...
