NASA's X-57 "Maxwell" all-electric aircraft can be the pathfinder for next-generation aircraft.

The next-generation technology will turn the dream of a "one-hour world" possible also in physical form. The next-generation hypersonic VTOL systems can be more revolutionary than some SR-72 or some other systems alone.

If we think about modern technology, that thing makes it possible to create an aircraft with the capacity for hypersonic flight, low-speed flight, and vertical take-off and landing. That thing is quite easy to solve. There is needed only three series of engines.

Regular jet engines, ramjet- and scramjet engines can be used in stages. At first, the regular turbojet will accelerate the speed to Mach 1,5, where the ramjet can start. Then the ramjet will accelerate the aircraft to Mach 6-7, where the scramjet can begin its operation. And the VTOL system can use blowers that make the aircraft operate silently above the city.

The systems developed for "flying cars" can use for larger-scale aviation systems development.

The blowers used in some experimental "flying cars" can have two engine series for flying, in that case, the system uses blowers for lift-off and low-speed flight. And then it can turn to use micro-jet engines.

Blower-based low-noise systems are giving those "every man's" flying machines a top speed of 200 kilometers per hour. Those little systems' speed can easily increase by using two engine series to 600 kilometers per hour. The flying car will rise into the air by using the blower system and then turn to increase its speed by using miniature turbo jets.

The speed of blower-operating micro-aircraft will remain at about 200 kilometers per hour. But that kind of system can also equip with small jet engines used in cruise missiles. So, when the pilot wants to turn to a travel flight there is possible to change the engines. When the distance to the city area is high enough pilots can turn to use those turbo jets.

If the regular aircraft has this kind of blower system, it can lift off by using blowers. The aircraft can also cruise above the city by using blowers. And then outside the city area, it can start its jet engines.

So, there are tested things like pulling propellers for creating the airflow that speed is fast enough that ramjet engines can start their operation. Those systems are basing fast-rotating cavitation propellers that make a vacuum or cavitation bubble behind the ramjet engine. And those propellers can pull the airflow so fast that hydrogen starts to burn in the ramjet engine.

Another solution could be the plasma-jet engine. In those systems, the engine creates plasma by using an electric arc. And then magnets will drive that plasma behind the engine.

The main problem with SR-71 was that aircraft couldn't operate at low speeds. The problem would be solved by connecting the regular jet engines to the SR-71-style aircraft that can operate at incredible speeds.

In air inlets of regular turbojets could be an iris that closes air flow to turbines when the aircraft's speed is too high. And if the aircraft would operate by using ramjet or scramjet systems the rapid air turbine could give electricity for the avionics of that aircraft.

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
