The Mikoyan-Gurevich design bureau made tests in 1980's with very small size space-shuttle, what became famous, when some Australian P-3 "Orion" took the picture of this thing, what was mentioned as the "Soviet space fighter". The Soviet authorities claimed that the Soviet Union would not develop space shuttles, but the pictures, what are taken from the "Plesetsk-cosmodrome" have been shown something else. Here I must mention, that there were two shuttle programs in the Soviet Union. Another one was "Buran" the large spacecraft, what had the size like American space shuttle.

That program shut down after a couple of tests and the Western intelligence believed, the purpose of that miniature space shuttle were military, and it would be developed for destroying other spacecraft. There were also some other analyzes, what was frighten the Western world. Those analyzes were that the MiG-105 was the prototype of the next generation cruise missile, what could be more terrible than HCM (Hypersonic Cruise Missile)could ever be.

Because of the photos, what was taken by P-3 Orion, and where the small size lifting body would be rescued from the sea to the Soviet naval vessel made the engineers believed, that this missile, could be used the EKRANOPLAN or WIG (Win In-Ground) what is normally called the "ground effect airplane". This technology would allow, that the cruise missile would make the "parabolic jump", and then land to the altitude of three meters for the surface of the ocean. In some scenarios, this weapon could be equipped with three jet motors, what could be at the bottom of this thing.

Those jet engines would make the landing to the ground effect flight easily, and the missile would continue with ramjets or rocket engines, and the most effective those missiles would be against warships like aircraft carriers. This could make the missile more deadly, than ever. The Russian new HCS would use the same technology, what is used in the MiG-105.

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.

(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
