The strange detail in the movie "Metropolis"

At the above, this text is a screenshot from the movie "Metropolis", that is directed by Fritz Lang in 1927. The eyes of the woman are looking like there are the pupils like reptilian or snakes. Those eyes can of course modified by some propagandist, who wanted to create fear against that kind of people. But those strangely shaped pupils is caused because that woman would be so-called "Reptilian hybrid" or "Werewolf". In the second picture, you might see this strange detail more clearly.


In that scene is a group of children, who are acting very nervous. And sometimes I have thought, that maybe Lang's idea was to show, what the humiliation and home violence could be done. In that scene is the reply "those are your brothers". And the idea is to show, what kind of differences the eldest son could get.

In that scene is the idea, that the first children get benefits like parties and other siblings of the series would pay those benefits. In this movie is the idea, that if the people are like robots, would the result be devastating. In some other movies and books is the same kind of ideas, that the firstborn would get everything, what he or she can ask, and then the other members of the family must pay those benefits. The film "Metropolis"  is very good to look even in the modern era.


But my personal opinion is, that the strange form of the pupils is caused by some propagandist. When we are using our imagination, we could create theories, that this woman has been in some kind of nerve-gas test. In those tests were used atropine for denying the effect of the nerve agent, that would pass the protective suit.

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
