The risks of the microwave weapons

Microwave attack

The thing what differences the good from the bad might be very small. If we are thinking about the situation, where the human head will be targetted the microwaves, what causes the changes of pressure in the skull, we are playing with dangerous things. The microwave can kill the target, but it can also cause the resonance inside that person's head. And the effect will be like noise inside target skull.

Don't ever test this in any place, because the rise of the pressure can break the victim's skull, or cause the horrifying injuries. This kind of things are not toys, and in some stories or thoughts, some kind of criminals have this kind of weapons in their hands. The use of microwaves in the humiliating the people or even destroying the targets is not the new idea. In 1970's CIA and DARPA tested the microwave-bazooka for elimination missions and the auxiliary weapon for the army.

The idea of the portable microwave-weapon was simple. The modified micro-wave own will pointed to the target, and that thing causes heat in the steel of the tanks. In the eyes of the engineers was the vision, that when microwaves raise the temperature of the tanks, it will make the armor softer, and other ammunition will get more efficient when they hit the target.

Also, microwave systems might want to use to make some "no-go zones" near army firebases. Microwave-weapons can also use against flying targets because they will cause EMP-effect in the drones and airplanes. If the microwave is enough to power, that can melt the target aircraft. The microwave wall has been investigated in the Russia.


The idea of this system is very simple. The target-like city or military base will surround the line of the high power microwave transmitters, what can make the wall, what can damage or destroy any target, what will fly thru it. The problem with the microwave systems is that almost anybody can get them. The law enforcement officials have investigated the possibility to use the microwave systems in the hostage situations because those systems can attack thru the wall and the operator can tune the power of the weapon between shock and deadly. Also, those weapons can be used as the torture of the victims in the closed cells. The prison guards might not even know that the prisoners will be tortured in the closed cells by targeting them with microwaves, what are shot thru the wall. (Picture 1)


And this kind of equipment is extremely dangerous in wrong hands. The modification of microwave oven is not very difficult, and that's why somebody can use it for terrorizing the neighbors or target it to the airplanes. And this will be very serious action, what will bring very long time to the jail if the person will catch for this kind of actions.

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
