Writing about the robots and apocalypse

Picture 1


Kimmo Huosionmaa

When we are talking about the apocalypse and robots, we must consider that robotics and automation might cause the civil disorders, because they will replace the human workers in the jobs, what normally are reserved to the persons, who are young and uneducated. That thing might cause the increase of unemployment people who are ready to start the rebellions. Robots might replace the workers who have age between 16-25, and when those people will hanging in the shopping center, there might be some disorders.


But when we are talking about the rebellion of robots, that will not cause by robots themselves. There will be some person, who will start attacks against the legal governments with the combat robots, what might be built by the government itself or they can be produced without the permission what was given by the government in some underground factory what is controlled by some private actor, and what might stand hidden inside the jungle of Congo.


That robot base, what might be straight from the "James Bond" movie could be built in some African state, and it might be fully automatized modified car factory, what will build the combat drones. This is terrifying scenario because many African states are corrupted dictatorships, and their leaders need the western technology for supporting their power in some very poor nation. But we might fight back if the robots will attack.


There are the weapons what are effective only against the robots, but they cannot normally harm the humans. Those weapons are extremely powerful EMP-pulses, what can be synthesized by the radio-telescopes and orbital nuclear weapons. The radio waves could also use to deny the communication between drones and their operators. The plasma what can be made in the atmosphere can deny also the use of GPS-system.


And in the case of unauthorized use of the GPS, those satellites can be shut down by their operators, what makes difficult to locate those drones. Of course, the GPS-satellites can be destroyed by the ASAT-weapon.  And the second thing what might be used against those drones is computer viruses, what mission is to delete the operating system of the drones and their manufacturing sites. But the misuse of the drones is the extremely bad threat and the many dictators want to replace their armies by the robots. And those machines are cheap to produce, what makes them capable of use by some dictator, and in some visions that man would sit in his office, and controls the drones, what might attack against any person, who was talking or acting against some dictator.

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
