Now old time motorcycle series like "Streethawk" became true with Russian flying motorbike and Japanese robot biker

Many 1980's TV-series have become reality by modern technology. Do you remember those series like "Knight Rider" or "Streethawk", where the hero had awesome wonder car or motorbike, and "Streethawk" heroes equipment had also weapons? That vehicle was a heavily modified computer controlled motorcycle. That kind of motorcycles will work perfectly because the remote operator will change systems for the driver, and if you mean kill systems like guns and grenade launchers what are installed in motorcycles cover doesn't work think that twice.


All systems in that fictional super motorcycle are remote controlled, so the driver is needed only one single button to take a control with them. Extreme high speed for that motorcycle will create with electric motors. The motorcycle would be hybrids, what can change between combustion and electric motors. The picture what is above text is a picture of Yamaha robot motorcyclist. So tomorrow we might meet also robot law enforcement who drive with motorcycles. They might search for people who want to harm motorcycle-drivers.


But modern technology will make this kind of bike to operate without remote control. If the modern driver would have the user interface what could operate by eye look and that is the same kind of system what is used by Stephen Hawking. And that kind of super bikers helmet might also be equipped with infrared cameras and HUD visions. Controlling computers might put to cases of that bike, and normal laptop could be enough to control that thing. Those series were quite popular, but those day's technology was not enough to build real things of that kind of equipment. Those "Streethawks" were totally imagination, but do you know that those series have a connection with real life.


Special Forces have special equipment for their missions, and that means that they have hybrid motor scooters, motorbikes, and cars what can move silent near the target, and some of those vehicles are equipped with forwarding shooting machine guns and another kind of weapons what sometimes can harm even heavy armored vehicles. Those kinds of weapons are grenade launchers what can use high explosive antitank grenades to target.


Sometimes intelligence services have put rocket launchers like bazookas to their cars mask. Those weapons can be very lethal. But nowadays technology will make even motorbikes as a robot. If that vehicle will be equipped with keel sensors and remote control motors and other electronics will put to the motorcycle it could be drive semi-autonomous. The control system can communicate with supercomputers via mobile Internet, and that computer might help local system with it massive calculating capacity. Or the driver can replace with, a humankind of robot what is developing under control of DARPA or in this case Yamaha. And motorcyclist mask will cover that robots silhouette, that people can't recognize it as the machine.

MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible

   "This chip-based "tractor-beam," which uses an intensely focused beam of light to capture and manipulate biological particles without damaging the cells, could help biologists study the mechanisms of diseases."(Interesting Engineering, MIT’s Star Wars-inspired ‘tractor beam’ uses light to capture, manipulate cells) MIT's tractor beam can make the new types of SASER systems possible. The tractor beam just hovers the nanoparticle in air or medium, and then the laser or some other electromagnetic system transports oscillation into those particles. The ability to make cells and other particles hover in the system makes it possible to create particles whose energy level or resonance frequencies are accurately calculated things.  That thing makes it possible to create things that transmit wave movement accurately and cleanly. This is one version of the use of a tractor beam. Modern tractor beams are like acoustic tweezers where sound waves lock the object in its cr

The new observations tell that the thunderstorms form gamma-rays. That could make gamma-ray lasers possible.

That could make gamma-ray lasers possible. The process has been observed by the NASA (Lockheed) ER-2 research plane, which is a modified U-2 spy plane. The gamma-ray formation in thunderstorms. Where lightning and electric fields release electrons that impact the air molecules and water droplets is an interesting thing. That thing opens the route to solving many mysteries.  "The general physics behind how thunderstorms create high-energy flashes of gamma radiation is not a mystery. As thunderstorms develop, swirling drafts drive water droplets, hail, and ice into a mixture that creates an electric charge much like rubbing a balloon on your shirt. Pos

Chinese innovations and space lasers are interesting combinations.

Above: "Tiangong is China's operational space station located in low Earth orbit. (Image credit: Alejomiranda via Getty Images)" (Scpace.com, China's space station, Tiangong: A complete guide) Chinese are close to making nuclear-powered spacecraft.  Almost every day, we can read about Chinese technical advances. So are, the Chinese more innovative than Western people? Or is there some kind of difference in culture and morale between Western and Chinese societies? The Chinese superiority in hypersonic technology is one of the things that tells something about the Chinese way of making things.  In China, the mission means. And the only thing that means is mission. That means that things like budgets and safety orders are far different from Western standards. If some project serves the Chinese communist party and PLA (People's Liberation Army) that guarantees unlimited resources for those projects. Chinese authorities must not care about the public opinion.  If we th
