NASA "holoported" a doctor to the international space station.



Holoportation is a less impressive thing than real teleportation. The idea is to send the 3D holographic model of a person or merchandise long distances. The object will be digitalized to a holographic form. In that process, the system uses a combination of laser scanners and CCD cameras that will render the object's surface. The laser scanners scan the shape of the object. And then the CCD cameras will photograph the entire object. The idea is similar to covering the statue using photographs. 

And then the image will send to the receiver and turn into a hologram. The holoportation is a well-known thing in science fiction. That thing can use to send real-looking people to space stations. But it can also use for making fake targets for snipers in the security and military areas. The interactive holoportation means that the person whose image is sent to the space station sees what is going on by using 3D glasses. 

And of course, virtual headsets are giving the feeling that person is in the ISS. But the ultimate simulation can make by using water tanks. The person whose hologram will send to space can hover in the water tank that is used in the zero-gravitational simulation. 

Things like robot surgeons can operate inside the hologram. That means the outside observer can see the human-looking surgeon. But in that place is a robot. The hologram can use in medical and technical work. That means the person can first move the hologram hand. And if the thing goes as it should. The real manipulator can move and make the action. 

The holoportation can also use to send the machine parts to space stations. The scanned 3D images can send to the 3D printers that can make very high-qualified parts in a vacuum. The quality problem with machine parts that are made by using 3D printers is the result of the air bubbles that can affect the process. If the air is removed there are no air bubbles and that thing makes the machine part tight and strong.

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
