Why is some technology hidden by the government?

Kimmo Huosionmaa

What if the technology is hidden even from hypothetical super civilization standard citizen? That is a very interesting question, what we might sometimes think. Do the aliens have they own "Men In Black" organization, what covers some of their own super technology from their own civilization? In some hypotheses, one of that civilization, what hides technology from its own citizens is the human race.


I once read a book, what name is “Ender". That book made me think one very philosophic question about other civilizations. That is, does those civilizations standard citizens even know about their technical level, and what are those civilization real capacities to operate in interstellar level and long distances. I mean in this hypothetical text, that could some intelligent civilizations hide their real advantage from its own citizen for some reasons, what we ever can imagine.


When we are thinking about hidden technology, we must realize that those super technologies, what gives a civilization a capacity to operate interstellar level.  In that case, we must recognize that those techniques are also threat for that civilization what builds those machines. There are many books where the civilization ends at the rebellion of the machines.


When we are talking about threats what technology causes to us, the main threat is an artificial intelligence, what begins to rebel against our civilization. In this scenario, the artificial intelligence, what controls the defense systems, will somehow upload itself to the internet and infects all systems that are connected to that international network. And after that, they will pollute every missile and drone and airplane flight control system.  Also, the system will upload itself in millions of computers.


There is a very bad problem with that kind of artificial intelligence if it has the capacity to go to psychological warfare against people, the defense against it will be very tricky if that program starts to blink computer screens and uses infra- and ultrasound to disturb those people, who try to stop it. Of course, the internet can be shut down and the servers can be clean, but that will cause an economic catastrophe.


This is, of course, an extreme scenario, what that kind of super data virus can do to human race. But here on earth is the limit how powerful weapons here can be done. But if the weapon tests will be made in somewhere outer space, there will be no limit to those system firepower. In outer space is a capacity to test super powerful


At the edge of our solar system, the scientists can test very powerful weapons like anti-material weapons, what are actually the ion cannons, what will shoot antimatter to the target. Many people think, that ion cannon will ever work. But if we put to ion cannons nest together, and another ion cannon operates with positive particles and another with negative particles, the ion ray can stay together.



The anti-material ion cannons are actually one version of those weapons, what can be tested in the outer space. Those super weapons shot to target, will seem like supernova explosions. When we are talking about the war between civilizations, we must realize, that those civilizations might use a different kind of weapons, what we can ever imagine. Those weapons can be thermos bottle size “Teller’s bombs”. “The Teller’s bomb” is the magnetic capsule, what levitates antimatter ions in it like they will not touch the bottle. If antimatter touches the bottle, there will be released very much energy.


And the power of antimatter reaction with normal material what is called as an annihilation, is so huge, that one metric gram of that antimatter can destroy an entire earth. If other civilization uses those capsules, the problem about them is that space is a cold place, and in the magnetic bottles becomes superconducting, and that’s why those systems don’t need the external power source on their long journey to the target.
