The time crystals and quantum level "perpetual motion machine"

The model of a time crystal is the box where atoms are jumping between walls "forever". The main reason why this thing is possible only on an atom-size scale is that the friction would slow the ball.  But theoretically, it is possible to make the box. There the ball or ball chain is jumping between the walls forever. 

The quantum level perpetual motion machine would work like this. The atom hits the wall of the box. Then it would just move energy to that box jump away. And then the energy would reload to the ball at the opposite side of the box. But as I just wrote, this thing is possible only in quantum-level systems. 

The time crystals can be used to store the data in quantum computers. And theoretically, they can offer one version of the secure, quantum data transmission. The chain of extremely cold ions or atoms would store in the laser ray.  And they can use to transmit data in quantum systems. The time crystals can form quantum transistors. 

The researchers of Google made it real. The first-time crystal that doesn't need the outcoming energy is real. And that makes it possible to transmit data through that system. The image above this text introduces a diagram of this new time crystal. 

Time crystals or the atom chains that sway back and forth. The time crystal is the quantum material where atoms are not going to a stable condition. When atoms are pushed they are starting to sway. And then they are continuing their movement without outer force. The time crystal is the quantum-level perpetual motion machine. But as you know the quantum level phenomenon cannot turn to a larger scale right away. 

The existence of those things needs extremely low temperature. The idea of a time crystal is that the atoms that are forming this state of matter are like in the box. The box or the core is the quantum field. And there is the chain of atoms in the box. 

Energy flow travels through the atom chain and the quantum field that surrounds the atom chain. When an atom hits the quantum field it would load energy into that core and then rebound. Then energy will transfer to the other side of the atom chain. And transfer to the opposite atom of the chain. The idea is that this kind of closed energy cycle system is an interesting thing. But making it larger than atom size is difficult or impossible.

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

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.

"NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX spacecraft successfully completed its closest solar pass, protected by innovative engineering solutions and showing improvements in onboard instruments. Credit: NASA’s Goddard Space Flight Center/CI Lab" (ScitechDaily, Innovative Engineering Shields NASA’s OSIRIS-APEX During Close Encounter With the Sun) The OSIRIS-APEX probe travels close to the sun. 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
