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.

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.

  "An illustration of NASA’s research plane ER-2 flying over thunderstorms. Credit: University of Bergen / Mount Visual (CC BY 4.0), edited" (ScitechDaily, Surprising Discovery: NASA’s Retrofitted U2 Spy Plane Reveals Tropical Lightning Storms Are Radioactive) The new observations tell that the thunderstorms form gamma-rays. 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
