Jetpacks can be the great opportunity, but they can be very big danger for the common security

The jetpack flights are now quite common, but do you know that those equipment has planned also the civil- and military use. In the civil duties, that equipment can get the rescue operators in the forests, and if those flying machines would be remote controlled, they can get the personnel out of the burning houses, and help the situation in the accident area, by bringing the medicines and the medical staff in the areas, what are too risky for the helicopters. Or this is what some futurologists see the use of this equipment.


Major problems with motorized hand gliders are that those equipment are suitable for terror-attack. The motorized hand gliders can use as to make the air-strike against any target, and those operators can be extremely dangerous because they can equip with the hand grenades, grenade launchers, and assault rifles, and even the heavily protected targets can be treated by those things. The special forces are also very interested to use jetpacks in their operations.


One of the realistic use for the jetpacks is to use them with the DARPA:s new human-like "Atlas"-robot, what could be sent to the combat zone with the jetpacks. The robots might deliver from C-130 Hercules or any other cargo plane to the operational area, and those combat robots, what have used this thing, might have the limited air-combat capacity. In some most imaginal visions, those robots can shoot to the operational area by ballistic missile, what returning capsule is that robot.


The vision is like straight from some "Terminator"-movie, where the combat robot will be sent for the assassination mission by the intercontinental ballistic missile. Those jet gliders can be used to drop the operators far away from the target, and they can fly to the target area. The jetpacks are actually quite difficult to see because they are very small sized. And the modern electronics allow making the autopilot-controlled jetpack, what leaves the operator in the right place, and then this thing will fly away.

Also, these little aircraft are probably planned to use as the carriers of small guided bombs. In this scenario, the jetpack is equipped with the GBU:s or "Stinger" missiles, and the remote-controlled glider can also use the miniaturized combat aircraft. Those things can also support the special forces combatants in their missions by delivering the combat equipment to those combatants, who operate far away from enemy lines.

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
