What kind of things are dangerous for even the most powerful men on Earth?

When the world went to war in 1914, the ruler of the Austria-Hungary double monarchy was 84 years old emperor Franz-Joseph, who kept his nation in the iron hand. This thing was actually very interesting because this man didn't name the man who will follow him as the ruler of that country. The eldest son of the emperor died in unsure circumstances in the castle of Meyerling, and the problem was that the Emperor did stop the investigations, and then removed the picture of his eldest son Rudolph from all public magazines.


The cause of the death was probably double suicide, but some investigators suspect, that Franz-Joseph was shot those victims in the anger. But here I not writing only about the Meyerling incident. I'm writing about things what made other nations suspected, that everything was not alright in the family of Habsburgs.


The thing that gave the reason to suspect, that old emperor had something personal to hide, was that he kept the power of the nation in his iron hand at the age of 84. Because Franz-Joseph was kept his personal position in the nation, gave the tip that there was something personal to hide. Something bad was hide from the old man's own family. What was this man afraid is lost in the history? What was the thing, what made one of the most powerful men in Europe afraid?


Was it the cause of the death of the Rudolf the crown prince of the Austria-Hungary, and Maria Vetsera? In that case, were made many mistakes, and one of them was that bodies were moved before the investigators came. And in some theories are that Maria Vatsera shot crown prince by an accident, and then herself because she was afraid the hate of Franz-Joseph. Or maybe the shooter was somebody third person, who might set up the double suicide. I


Did those shootings were made by accident or on purpose is remaining in the secret forever.  In this theory, those two persons were drunk, and then the accident happened. Did they met their fate by the double suicide or did Franz-Joseph killed them under the influence of alcohol? The crown prince was the only son of the Franz-Joseph, and if the reason for killing that man was the domestic violence, this might be the very hard thing for Franz-Joseph.


When we are thinking the reason, why Franz-Joseph didn't want to see the faces of his son after the Mayerling incident, was that maybe he was used violence in his family. And this man was afraid the revenge of the family if he were given the chair of the power to someone else. So he kept the power until the end of his life at 1916.

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
