Is the independence of science treated?

Sometimes people are talking about the independence of science, and this thing is the complicated question. The problem of the universities is that they must get financial support from somewhere, and if they are free for the students, the money must get from somewhere. When financial supporter would make the decision about the money, that money makes the profit for the supporter. This means that the supporter expects to get something in return.

And this means the financial support from the companies, or otherwise, the studies in that institution are limited only for students, who have good relationships with the business world, and who have great salaries. But if the students would not have those relationships, they must get support from the government, and some professions like a lawyer and medical doctor are reserved for people, who have studied in the university.

And this means that politicians are giving money to those studies. In this case, there are millions of other things, where that money can spend. If the government gives money, that would want something, what is interesting for national interest. Or otherwise, the government would not give money for the university.

This means the universities must produce something, what is useful for the nation, and this is the most complicated thing in the world. If the argumentation for financial support is not good, the money would not be given. In this case, the financial support must get from the private sector, and in this case, the argumentation and profit must be actual. That's why the companies are willing to get the expertise from the universities for their projects, what are consisting the highest grade of the technology.

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

Iron Dome is one of the most effective air defense systems.

The Iron Dome is a missile defense system whose missiles operate with highly sophisticated and effective artificial intelligence. The power of this missile defense base is in selective fire. The system calculates the incoming missile's trajectory. And it shoots only missiles that will hit the inhabited area. The system saves missiles and focuses defense on areas that mean something. The system shares the incoming missiles in, maybe two groups. Another is harmless and another is harmful. Things like killer drones are also problematic because their trajectories are harder to calculate than ballistic missiles. The thing that makes drones dangerous is that they can make masks for ballistic missiles. And even if those drones are slow, all of them must be shot down. The thing is that the cooperation between drone swarms and ballistic missiles is the next danger in conflict areas. In the film, you can see how drones make light images of the skies. The killer drones can also carry LED li

The innovative shield that protects OSIRIS-APEX can also protect the new hypersonic aircraft.

The mission plan is to research the sun. And especially find things that can warn about solar storms. Solar storms are things that can danger satellites at the Earth orbiter. And the purpose of OSIRIS-APEX is to find the method of how to predict those solar storms. Another thing is that the OSIRIS-APEX tests the systems and materials that protect this probe against heat and plasma impacts. The same technology. The researchers created for OSIRIS-APEX can used in the materials and structures. That protects satellites against nuclear explosions. That means this kind of system delivers information on how to prot
