The miniaturization can revolutionize the exploration and intelligence. (As I have said many times before)

"Glider over Mars"
David Hardy
(Picture1)


Kimmo Huosionmaa

Above is the picture what is painted by artist David Hardy, and it is a portrait of the glider, what flies above the Martian canyon, and this made me think, that what that kind of small size solar-powered glider can give to the scientists and military intelligence. The small size automatized gliders, what uses the solar power could operate years in the Martian or any planet atmosphere, and I think that this kind of device can operate without touching the planet surface. The only thing what is needed is to connect the big balloon in that glider, what makes it possible to stay flying in the atmosphere.


The thing works like when the glider's batteries become weak, the balloon, what should keep it airborne will open, and then the tube will drop to the lower level of the atmosphere, where capillary phenomenon will bring the gas thru the small turbine, what gives electricity to the computers. This kind of turbine-
 the generator combination should reload the batteries of that small remotely controlled vehicle, what is actually the jetpack, what is equipped with the computer and remote-control electronics.


When the batteries are full, the compressor will suck the gas out from the balloon back to the bottle, and the drone can continue its operations. In the earth atmosphere, that kind of miniaturized drones can be used as the intelligence, surveillance and even for attack missions.


They can patrol some areas and send data to the authorities about the actions, what people are doing in there. They can look for missing people, but in the military world, they can do very many things, what big aircraft can do, but they are cheaper for produce. And the reason, why Cesium-batteries are not suitable for this kind of drones, is that if they were shot down, the high radioactive Cesium will go to hands of terrorists, who might use them to build the "dirty bomb", what means the device, what delivers radioactive material to the air, and "dirty bomb" can poison many people.


Those long enduring drones can slip into the hostile airspace, and search for the action in that area. They can also point targets to the attack aircraft, and if we are honest, can be equipped with the warheads. In this scenario, the same drones, what sends the data for intelligence officials, can be used as the missiles, what eliminates interesting targets. The drones can be equipped with detectors, what search the radio-messages, and they will use to eliminate the radios from the battlefield. Those targets might be radar antennas, aircraft, ammunition storages, command systems, and of course the vehicles what carries the leaders of the enemy.

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
