The mystery of lost pulsars.

Pulsars are fast-rotating neutron stars. And that means many forces affect that thing. There is the possibility that the extremely fast rotating neutron stars will stretch from their poles. And the neutron star turns to look a little bit like a dumbbell. That change in the form of neutron stars is not quite big but researchers can measure that change. 

Pulsars can turn away from the Earth. And that means they can be "missing". The changes in material symmetry can cause the pulsar will get an extra dose of positive or negative particles. So in that case the asymmetry in electricity of particles that impact with neutron star can cause the pulsar changes its position. 

All pulsars are neutron stars. The neutron star is a supernova remnant and molecular nebula surrounds neutron stars at least at the beginning of their existence. The radiation of the pulsar forms when particles impact the neutron star. There is the possibility that a neutron star blows its molecular nebula away. And that turns it invisible. 

One reason why pulsar is missing can be it simply turned away from the Earth. Or some pulsars are hard to detect. Because their radiation is turning to Earth all the time. In that case, the radiation of the pulsar continues all the time. Normally pulsars are detected because there are pauses in their radiation. 

When we think about extremely short-period pulsars like millisecond pulsars there is the possibility that those pulsars are just wobbling. That means their poles are moving only a little and that thing causes that pulsar will point to Earth for only a short time. The pulsar's radiation comes mainly out from the poles of the neutron star. So in this text pulsar and neutron star are the same. 

Or maybe we should say that neutron star. That sends radiation is a pulsar. 

All neutron stars are not sending radiation. If a neutron star is in a cosmic bubble, no material impacts them. Radiation of the neutron star comes from high-energy particle impacts to its core. And that's why molecular nebulas are important for making pulsars visible. 


There is one thing that can explain why some pulsars are missing. 


Pulsar radiowaves are born when material falls to a neutron star. When that material impacts that massive object it releases energy as radio waves. When particles impact with a neutron star. They face an extremely strong magnetic field that drives those particles to the poles of the neutron star. The radiation leaves the neutron star in the form of two narrow beams. 

There is the possibility that a neutron star just blows particles away from it. If no gas and dust can impact it no radiation can form in those impacts. So if neutron stars are just making the bubble around them that thing can cause they will be lost. 

But in some scenarios neutron stars are putting the nebula around them to shine so bright that the radiowaves cannot travel across that cloud. When molecular nebula around neutron star gets radiation the particles will sooner or later start to send emission radiation. When the particles are sending radiation the energy level is higher than the radiation that comes from the neutron star that radiation will close the pulsar in it. 

The thing is that the molecular cloud or particles of the molecular cloud around the neutron star or pulsar can send radiation only when their energy level rises higher than the energy that comes from the pulsar. So that thing can turn the molecular cloud into the giant Faraday cage that keeps the radiation of the neutron star inside it.

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
