The light cable allows making the artificial sense of touch sensors for any layer in the world.

When we are sending the space-probes to the outer space in the great distances from the Earth, we must remember that there will be many problems, what the spacecraft would face, and of the greatest hazards is that probe would impact some micrometeorite, what might be the size of sand. That kind of impact might cause serious damages to the outer layer of the space-probe.


Even the damage would limit in the outer layer, could that uncover the computers and other equipment of that probe. That's why those probes must equip with the touch-detectors, what will tell to the central computer, that there was an impact situation.


One way to make that artificial sense of touch is to use light cables, what meters the curving of the layer. When the shape of the light cable will change, the sensors would notice that thing. Those sensors what meters the time, what the light uses when it travels thru the light cable and detects the change of the time and length of the waves. That change will tell, that the layer has been touch.


Another way to accomplish this solution is to use piezoelectric crystals, but we must realize, that those crystals must cover all the surface of the layer, and that's why the use of light cables is easier to accomplish. But when we are talking about the remote-controlled robots, what is controlled by the virtual reality systems, the use of that crystal allows transmitting the feel of sense to the data gloves, and that will make easier to control the robots from very long distances.


Those remote-control systems are similar, what is used to control the animated shapes in the Disney's studios. But this time that equipment will control the human shape robots, what could work in undersea conditions. They might also work on the battlefield, and those machines would be the most frightening thing in the battlefield of future.

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
