The new kind of scientific systems can be fully automatized versions of the "Weather station "Kurt" ".

The weather station "Kurt" have given innovation for one very interesting tool, what have planned to investigate the remote signal. The story of "Kurt" is at the link below the text, so if you wish to read about the radio-transmitter, what was carried to the coast of Canada, and what could be used as the relay station for the German agents. In this case, the radiotelephone would be connected to the radio-amplifier, and the agent would send their message by using this equipment. The transmission would send by normal agent radio, and this "Kurt" equipment would amplify the signal, that is visible in Berlin.


Here I should write about some new equipment, and the system would base the shape of the "Kurt". In this case, the surveillance station would be dropped to the operational area like in the savanna, desert or icy expanses in Greenland or South Pole by aircraft. This station might have cameras, what would take photographs from the area, and that could send the images or real-time broadcasts from that location.


But there can be seismic, acoustic and chemical sensors in that system, what would tell about secret chemical storage, volcanic, and species in that area. The seismic sensors can also be in the circular form around the device and the system can be equipped with the very sharp clock, what meters the time difference between seismic shaking, when they arrive in those sensors, and this system could locate the direction, where the seismic waves are coming by using the extremely short difference of the time, when the sensors first notice the seismic waves.


This system might also operate drone-helicopters, what can be put under the cans, what are in the circle around the system. Those drones can fly around it, and when their battery is low, they can return and reload themselves by using wireless chargers. Small robot helicopters can also be equipped with the chemical sensors, what are similar, what is used by military men for alerting them to attack by chemical weapons.


Chemical sensors can actually intercept the single person, and they can monitor the location, where the chemical leak is coming. Those drones would fly with the search formation, and meter the location, where the strongest "smell" is coming. And then they would fly to that direction, and send the images about the chemical source like burning fire. They can smell the diesel-engines, cordite and another kind of interesting chemicals.  And then the controlling person makes the decision about the action in the situation.


The similar thing could be sent to the Titan moon in the distant future. In this case, those systems might be equipped with nuclear batteries, what allows the drones to fly even in the years. But on Earth, the nuclear batteries or (RTG) Radio Thermal Generators are dangerous because somebody might steal them, and make the radioactive weapon by using those radioactive materials. So on Earth, those systems might use solar power and fuel cells for creating the energy for that kind of sophisticated systems.
