One of the most forgotten patent: Flying Car

One of the most incredible invention in the history is the flying car. It means very cheap and fast helicopter-style aircraft, what allows anybody buy an aerospace vehicle. Those aerospace vehicles can be faster than the normal helicopter, and their functionality is that inside the wheels or at the bottom of those vehicles is the blowers, what pushes it upwards, and then there will be blowers at both sides of the vehicle, what will allow making the controlling easier.


That kind of things is very advanced things, what are interested the intelligence services, what can use them as the evacuation operations. In this scenario, the "flying cars" will rise airborne, and drive in the cargo planes, and those things don't need runways. The name "flying car" means that this kind of vehicle can operate like an automobile, but when flying is needed, those vehicles can fly like an airplane or helicopter.


When we are thinking about capacities of those things, they might be revolutionized the aviation, and if we are talking about the limits of those things, we must say that they are only legal. The technology, what allows to make them already exists. And when we are going very deep, and begin to imagine the situation, that the use of nuclear power is possible, and the reactors are compact enough to set in the automobile, those vehicles could travel even to the stars. The idea of this thing is not mine, and it was introduced in one movie.


Please don't laugh now, but if that kind of "flying car" uses the nuclear reactor, and the outside of the car would be installed the "gauss rail" or electromagnetic rail (WARP), it would be possible to travel the other planet or even the stars with the car-shaped spacecraft, what uses miniaturized nuclear reactor. But if we think that thing by using the technical knowledge, what we have now, we must say that becoming true, the "space car" from the movie "The last starfighter" must need more technical advantages than what we have today. But it would be nice to think, what kind of vehicle would that thing be, but in the real life, there would need more advanced technology for making the spacecraft, what can travel to Alpha Centauri from the own people own backyard.


That hypothetical vehicle can travel to the Alpha Centauri, and the crew of it might be frozen at very low temperature, and if the technology will be sometimes far enough, those crews could be wake up after the travel. But waking up from this extremely low-temperature hypothermia might be possible to disband by raising the body temperature very slowly. The rise of the temperature would be a degree by month, and that might guarantee that the person could survive by this hypothetical spaceflight.

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

Iron Dome is one of the most effective air defense systems.

The Iron Dome is a missile defense system whose missiles operate with highly sophisticated and effective artificial intelligence. The power of this missile defense base is in selective fire. The system calculates the incoming missile's trajectory. And it shoots only missiles that will hit the inhabited area. The system saves missiles and focuses defense on areas that mean something. The system shares the incoming missiles in, maybe two groups. Another is harmless and another is harmful.  Things like killer drones are also problematic because their trajectories are harder to calculate than ballistic missiles. The thing that makes drones dangerous is that they can make masks for ballistic missiles. And even if those drones are slow, all of them must be shot down.  The thing is that the cooperation between drone swarms and ballistic missiles is the next danger in conflict areas. In the film, you can see how drones make light images of the skies. The killer drones can also carry LED li

The innovative shield that protects OSIRIS-APEX can also protect the new hypersonic aircraft.

"NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft successfully completed its closest solar pass, protected by innovative engineering solutions and showing improvements in onboard instruments. Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center/CI Lab" (ScitechDaily, Innovative Engineering Shields NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX During Close Encounter With the Sun) The OSIRIS-APEX probe travels close to the sun. The mission plan is to research the sun. And especially find things that can warn about solar storms. Solar storms are things that can danger satellites at the Earth orbiter. And the purpose of OSIRIS-APEX is to find the method of how to predict those solar storms. Another thing is that the OSIRIS-APEX tests the systems and materials that protect this probe against heat and plasma impacts.  The same technology. The researchers created for OSIRIS-APEX can used in the materials and structures. That protects satellites against nuclear explosions. That means this kind of system delivers information on how to prot
