Importance of cyber warfare.

Cyber warfare and the importance of it are now understood in the western military.  The best way to make lethal damage to the computer system is to use the logical bomb. In this case, the computer virus would be activated in the middle of the combat situation, what would decrease the ability to use the weapons. Another version of this operation is to change some codes inside the fire control system and delete the electronic codes of the master keys. And in this case, the computer would not recognize those keys. That means that the key would not activate the fire control computers, and that will be the very bad thing for the warship, what is under attack.


The question about cyber security is vital for military forces around the world, and in the worst scenario some person would paralyze a multi-million dollar warship by using a mobile telephone, and in the real world, that kind of threats would cause problems even for the security of the nuclear weapons.  The safety systems of those weapons are very good, and that means that hackers would not launch the missiles. But damages about this kind of attack might be very big, and in the critical time, that would cause the bad situation.


In this scenario, the person, who wants to sabotage the nuclear weapons of some state, would cause terrible damages for missile systems and decrease the strike capacity in the critical time. In this case, that person would use the nuclear weapons security systems against itself. That means that that operator would try to launch missiles without permission and orders, what means that those rockets would probably start. The safety system would deny those launches, but the rockets are unable to use. And if that would happen in critical time, would this cause threat to national security.


This would happen by using hacker techniques, where the hacker would just change the codes inside the nuclear weapon control computers. If the hacker could slip into the system, that person would able to change the launching code, or delete some code keys, and that would cause the situation, where the system would detect the launching as the unauthorized operation, and then the safety system would destroy those rockets. The warheads would not explode, and the missiles would not fly anywhere, but when this happens in the critical situation, would it cause the terrible situation in military forces.

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
