Strange advantages of the world's first electric submarines.

When we are looking at the Peral submarine, that are the worlds first electric submarine, we must notice, that this vehicle looks like the more modern submarine that the WWII U-boats, which is the more well-known type of submarines, than this 19th-century solutions. The shape of the hull is geometrically round tube, and that would give that vehicle very modern shape.

When we are thinking clearly, the Spanish naval engineer Isaac Peral made better submarines in 19th. century than German naval engineers in 20th. century, but of course Peral's submarine did not have a diesel-electric drive, but there were rumors that Peral made the capillary turbine in that boat, by rising the tube to the surface, and the water would suck thru the waterwheel, what would give that submarine quite high speed. The modern Russian super-powerful nuclear weapon might look like this pioneer boat.




Cutaway-drawing about Goubet submarine

The French engineer Claude  Goubet invented the very strange type of submarine, what looked like little bit Peral submarine. In that submarine, the pilot and the "first officer" sat their bag together. This solution has of course mentioned in some UFO-books, and probably the engineer Goubet might think, that he could also make the balloon or airship, what could bomb the targets far away from the coastal area. In that scenario, that engineer thought, that he could put the balloon inside this submarine, and then the electric power might use to make hydrogen in that boat. 


The hydrogen would be used to fill that balloon. And then the worlds first "flying submarine" could be true. In some romantic SciFi-stories were, of course, mentioned that engineer Goubert has seen UFO and by the observing that device, this brilliant engineer has created his submarine. But there would be no evidence about that. Those two submarines are the very interesting thing, and they might give innovations for modern nuclear submarines in the world. There are many mysticisms about the technology, what is used in the military vehicles, and people have right to believe, what they want. But we must say, that those submarines structures were more advanced than second World submarines had.

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
