The story of Maglev or Magnetic levitation transport

Picture I

Kimmo Huosionmaa

The Maglev or Magnetic levitation transporter can change the railroads to the revolutionary way, and if those systems would work, the production of trains, what is faster than an airplane could be possible. The Maglev-trains movement mechanism is actually similar to the particle accelerator, what would pull the train above it.

This system is a gauss track, where magnets would levitate the train above the railroad, and at the same time, this system would accelerate this train. If those Maglev-trains would be set in the large tubes, what would be pumped empty, would thee be no gas, what would heat the nose of that train. And in theory, those magnet trains can get reach the speed of light, if there would not be very tight turns.

There are actually many technical problems with that technical solution about this train, and one of the biggest is, how that train would be stopped if there would be problems with magnets. In realistic scenarios, those trains, what is traveling in vacuum tube could reach the speed of Mach 12, and because there is no resistance of the air molecules, those trains would not be difficult to make.

But the vacuum tubes are problematic, because if there would be the leak in the tube, the air will be sucked in, and that would cause overheating. And if those trains must be stopped, the impact with the rails might release very much energy, what can destroy that vehicle in seconds. And if the stopping system would malfunction near the end station, the Maglev-train would impact to the wall in the speed of Mach 12, what would cause the terrible explosion.

In the last we must tell that time machine, that is called as the "train to the future". In the scenario, that was introduced in one BBC-document, and the link to that document is under the text, would the human race build in some day massive railroad across the equator, and then the train would accelerate in the speed of light.

That would cause-effect that the time inside this train will be slowing like Einstein predicted, and then that system works as the time machine. There have been rumors that in the CERN particle accelerator have been planned to use to accelerate small probes in the speed of light, and those probes would send us information about the future. Those rumors might be true, but if there would be malfunctions in the accelerator, the result would be devastating, if the egg-size probe hits the wall of the accelerator in the speed of light. This would be the theory, but nothing makes it impossible. And maybe tomorrow, we could build that kind device.

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
