Flying wings are coming.

Chinese H-20 and the USAF B-21 stealth bombers are both flying wings. The flying wing design makes those aircraft more economical. And they can carry more payload. Also, the economical flight makes them fly longer time before refueling. And along with stealth technology that makes those bombers very capable for global operations. 

The thing is that those aircraft can be very fast because they are aerodynamically very capable. Their shape is smooth. And the curves are soft. That allows the radio waves from the radars to slide over their body without causing an echo. The same way that shape makes air molecules travel over the bodies of those aircraft. 

There is the possibility that the magnetic field around those aircraft is boosting the stealth capacity of those super bombers. The magnetic stealth system acts as the Earth's magnetic field and pushes the radio waves away from the aircraft. The idea is that the radio waves pass that object without reflection. And that makes those aircraft invisible to radars.

The speed of stealth bombers is limited because the super- or even hypersonic flight causes sonic booms. The air cone of the supersonic flight makes those aircraft easier to detect. So the optimal speed of the stealth bomber is about Mach 0,9 or high subsonic. But there is the possibility that those aircraft have AI-based systems that limit the speed subsonic when those aircraft operate in stealth mode. 

There is the possibility that when stealth bombers are moving to operational areas they use afterburners or even ramjet or scramjet engines. Then the pilot just turns one button to "stealth" mode and then the system limits the speed of the stealth bomber that it flies at subsonic speed. There are only a few details published about those highly classified bombers. 

In the future, stealth bombers can jump out of the atmosphere and make so-called ballistic jumps. That allows them to move fast to operational areas. And there, those bombers can turn to use stealth mode while they are searching for enemies from that area.

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
