In 1970 United States military made nuclear test series codenamed EMERY, and it was one of 16 tests, what were planned to explode in underground position. The underground nuclear tests were only allowed test form after the partial nuclear test ban treaty, what prohibited nuclear tests in the sea, close space and atmosphere because of the radioactive fallout. BANEBERRY was 10 kiloton unit, what was detonated 270 meters below the surface, and the depth was too small. The explosion caused the radioactive cloud and very high level of radiation. Two workers of that area got leukemia, because of that test.



That nuclear test is very strange because the unit was shot so close to the Earth surface, and that caused the high level of radiation.  Somebody claimed that the reason for that radioactive catastrophe was that the United States tested cannon, what could launch the spacecraft to the trajectory. In this system, the nuclear detonator would be launched in the tunnel under the spacecraft, and then the pressure would throw it to the orbiter. This is one of the weirdest rumors of the history of aviation, and sometimes I have thought that is the real purpose of ORION-project actually cover this kind of tests, where satellites were shot to air by using nuclear weapons.

This is not the only or the first time when the nuclear detonators would be claimed to use in this purpose, and there is one very interesting detail in the history of nuclear weapons, what could explain the "Black Knight" satellite. In 1956 United States Military made the nuclear tests in the series of OPERATION BLUBBOB. There were test code-named PASCAL-B, where claimed that the steel plate would kick to the orbital trajectory.


 The idea is purely similar to the Montgolfier-brothers balloon from 1783. The balloon was fly because under it was burned the campfire, what made heat air inside the balloon. The same idea could be in the nuclear detonation use under the similar construction, what is of course made by different materials. The nuclear detonator would give heat air, and launch that thing in the orbital trajectory. This writing is of course only speculative, and there would be no proof about supporting this, except the reports or comments of operation "Plumbbob Pascal-B" test in nuclear weapon archives.

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.

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
