Killer drones are playing an important role in Ukraine.

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...

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies?

Could this be the thing, that some people don't want you to know about zombies? The simplest way to control zombies, which are made by using tetrodotoxin, which is called "zombie poison" is to use the automatic dispenser, which is normally used in diabetes treatment. In this case, the dispenser would be loaded by using tetrodotoxin. If the level of this poison is right, the person would be totally under the control of other people. And if the system cannot detect this poison there is a possibility to make the laboratory experiment when the staff will follow the decrease of the tetrodotoxin, and then the system can use a simple clock, which will inject poison to the body of a victim after a certain time. This would be an effective tool in the hands of military and counter-terror operators. Those zombies can be captured enemy operators, who will send back, and then they just kill their ex-partners. By using genetically engineered bacteria could be possible to create t...

The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like.

.     The cyborg lichen can be one of the most exotic visions of what the high-tech civilization might look like. Above is the image of the nano-submarine. There is introduced an idea, that this kind of system would equip with living neurons, which makes it like some kind of artificial bug or mosquito. The idea is that the robot can take the nutrient by using the robot tube, which acts like a proboscis. The neurons can get nutrients and the rest of the machine can use small fuel cells or the energy to that system can deliver by using the radio waves. Futurologists are thinking about the ideas, what the hybridization of the neurons and machine would look like? Could the hyper-technical civilization look like the group of midget submarines? Those submarines might take nutrients for the neurons, what is living in them. The purpose of the midget submarines, which might be size less than a couple of millimeters would maximize the survivability of the neurons. One of the most intere...
