Writing about "giant birds" and unseen forces on Earth

There are many tales about giant birds, what can eat even human beings. And when we are thinking carefully about the background of those tales, we can see, that some of them might be even true. First thing, what those people might see is Condor, the giant bird from South America. Those birds can be very big, and they can also be dangerous if they are threatened. Another big bird, what might be seen is Haast's Eagle, what killed the giant birds from New Zealand. Sometimes anthropologists have thought that this giant eagle could still live in the far isolated islands at the ocean.  Those eagles had the wingspan about 2,5 meters, what is less than Condor.


But there is another very fascinating explain about those stories. There might be tested some early airships, and when we are talking about aircraft, we might notice, that in American Civil War Southern side planned to build steam engine aircraft. But the motor was too heavy for the planned aircraft, what was the little bit like Wright brothers "Flyer one", what fly at Kitty Hawk 1903. The reason, why Wright brothers succeeded, was that they had the combustion engine, what was light enough to rise the aircraft from the ground.


Sometimes the Argentinian engineer, but there is no documentation of that flight, so the honor of the first flight with heavier than air vehicle belong to Wright brothers. That first attempt to fly with aircraft in the 1860's was ended, because the motor was too heavy, but then somebody claimed, that above the body of that steam-engine aircraft were installed the cigar-shaped gas ball, what would make it first hybrid airship in the world. The airship, what used combustion engines was made by Count Ferdinand Von Zeppelin in 1900, but when the first steam-engine airship was flown is the thing, what is not actually mentioned.


The idea of that device was that normal steam engine airship would take the glider-aircraft near the target, and then the steam engine would help to handle that plane, and give it longer flight radius. But above the text is the very fascinating photo of the cloud, what seems like the bird. Sometimes I have thought that maybe sometimes the birds would get enough electricity, that they can ionize clouds, what can take their form.

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
