New winds of hypersonic flight.

The purpose of test planes is to bring data for larger-scale systems. Data collected from hypersonic systems like miniature missiles, and test planes can research and develop for bigger. And more capable multi-use super- and hypersonic aircraft. Whenever some manned or unmanned aircraft goes to hypersonic areas the test unit brings information from that extreme area beyond the supersonic world.

The Lockheed-Martin SR-72 hypersonic testbed brings vital information from the hypersonic world. Along with DARPA's hypersonic, scramjet-driven missile test unit. Those remote- or AI-controlled systems can make test flights safely. And that means there are more risks that those units can take.

That is vital for the larger-size hypersonic aircraft. The large-size hypersonic aircraft can carry satellites to low earth orbiters. And they can also carry cargo and passengers all around the world very fast.

From the military perspective, hypersonic aircraft can operate in many roles. The high-speed bombers and attack aircraft are of course things that are in the mind of military personnel.

That means the next-generation troop transporters can use hypersonic flight when they transport paratroops on long-distance flights. Then those aircraft can slow. And the paratroopers can jump out of the cabin.

Hypersonic systems can flight long-distance flights by using hypersonic speed. And then they can slow their speed for delivering their cargo or make some other missions. Rumors tell that USAF already has hypersonic (Mach 6+) recon and maybe nuclear strike capable aircraft at least at the R&D stage.

In some scenarios, the scramjet engines can install to a regular 6th. generation jet aircraft. Like auxiliary rockets installed in the space shuttle. When those engines are not needed anymore they can drop away. That concept means that the jet plane can fly to the operational area very fast, but then there that thing acts like a regular jet plane.

But when we are talking about the internally fixed installed scramjet and ramjet engines. They will bring more capacity to all aircraft. And the most fascinating version of hypersonic aircraft is the space shuttles that accelerate at the Earth's atmosphere to a speed of Mach 12. And then they will jump out from the atmosphere. After that jump, they can turn to use rocket engines.

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
