This "space habitat" is located in Switzerland. And it's made to fit in the Space X Starship. That kind of space habitat can be a good simulation for making new structures for space flights.  If the Space X "Starship" is equipped with a greenhouse, that thing will increase its ability to operate in space. 

And then another thing is that the 3D printer technology is more multi-use than use regular technology. The 3D printers can also use for creating spare parts for machines. And those printers can also create new parts for the Starship if a meteorite impact damages it. 3D printing technology is a more flexible and powerful technology for spacecraft and space colonies. 

There is the possibility that things like ground vehicles can create by using 3D printers. And that brings a new type of vision to the mind of people. The 3D printed habitats can also use in remote areas. In those systems, the quadcopters that are equipped with the 3D printer systems can drop from cargo planes. And those 3D printers can create laboratories and sleeping barracks far away in the jungles. 

The problems in remote areas are similar to problems in space. There is no extra space in the complex or spacecraft. And if some spare parts are needed more than is calculated there is no way to order new spare parts. The system can recycle all materials in those areas. The broken parts can melt by using microwave systems and reused in the 3D printers. 

Those habits can use as laboratories far away from city areas. And if the printing technology is fast enough that kind of system can use to create hospitals in catastrophic areas. The ability to make 3D printed structures very fast is making a revolution in technology. In things like architecture, the 3D-printer systems are more flexible tools than ever before.

Innovative "nano-robot" created entirely from DNA can explore biological processes.


Using DNA to build a “nano-robot” to explore microscopic cell processes up close. (SciTechDaily.com/Innovative “Nano-Robot” Built Entirely From DNA To Explore Microscopic Biological Processes)

The new innovative nanorobot made entirely from DNA is one of the most innovative systems in the world. The DNA molecules are useful elements for nanomachines. Those nanorobots are used to observe biogenetic processes. 

But the same technology that is used to create the DNA-based structures can use for making artificial DNA and DNA-based biotechnology. The fact is this. DNA offers a very good tool for data transport over long distances. 

And the artificial bacteria can use as a biochemical qubit. The idea is that the DNA controls the bacteria that filaments are giving electric shocks or electric impulses. This bacteria or living USB stick can swim to the sensor. And then it can download data that is stored in the DNA to the computers and otherwise. When the computer needs to store data in the biological data storage it creates the artificial DNA and pumps it to that cell. 

There is the possibility that this kind of artificial bacteria can create neurotransmitters. Those neurotransmitters make it possible to drive information to the new half-organic microchips. In half-organic microchip is a living neuron that transmits data to the non-organic microchip or quantum computers. 




The bacteria can turn into a DNA-controlled miniature robot. And if researchers can make synthetic plasmids they can turn bacteria the multi-use tool. 


The use of bacteria as nanomachines could require that reseachers destroy their ability to create descendants terminating their heritable genetic material. So those bacteria would have only the DNA plasmids. 

When we are thinking about abilities. That artificial DNA can give to nanotechnology and biomedical research. The DNA plasmids are the brains of the bacteria. And by manipulating those DNA plasmids the researchers can make the bacteria that can work as miniature robots. They can use it to create new nanomachines if the required movement series can program in those DNA plasmids. 

Another thing is that the bacteria that fecundity is destroyed can use as tools for destroying tumors and other bacteria. The bacteria can program to attack other bacteria or cancer cells. And when its mission is done the programmed code in the plasmids can order bacteria to destroy themselves.

Nanolasers are fascinating tools.



The image above: nanolaser can destroy individual cells from the human body. 


Nano-scale lasers are impressive tools. They can use to deliver communication signals to other nanomachines that are operating in EMP-protected areas where electromagnetic fields can terminate all processes. The idea is that the radiowaves are targeted to microchips that are equipped with nanolasers. That system transforms the radio-wave-based data into the photonic form. 

And that denies the effect of the electromagnetic field. This reaction chamber can be inside the liquid. That allows those nanomachines can swim freely. 

Those nanolasers can deliver electricity to nanomachines that use tiny photovoltaic cells. So, in the reaction chamber can be two kinds of nanomachines. The nanolaser group that transforms radiowaves into laser rays operates outside the Faraday cage. And the nanomachine group that uses only nanolasers operates inside that cage. That means those systems are not forming the electromagnetic fields in the protected area. 

The system can communicate through the network of the Faraday cage with nanomachines that operate in the protected area. The nanolaser allows the system can control individual nanomachines. And that gives the ultimate accuracy for that swarm.


The nanomachines that travel inside the human body can destroy non-wanted cells and thrombosis by using laser rays. 


The nanolaser could be installed in nano-size submarines. Those nanomachines could be the next-generation tools for the medical industry. 

The accuracy of those nanolasers is excellent. And that makes them possible to destroy individual cells from the human body. When we are thinking possibility to create tiny smaller than 1mm. size nanorobots that are swimming in the human blood vessels, those systems can destroy single cancer cells. 

That thing happens by targeting laser rays to those cells. Those extremely small robots can also remove thrombosis from the blood vessels. And they can even destroy viruses. That kind of system can replace at least part of antibiotics in the future. Nano-size laser systems can also remove plaque from the Alzheimer-patient's brains. 

Nanomachines would send to the blood vessels by using injection. The X-ray or radar systems can follow their position. The idea is that those nanomachines are equipped with RFID sensors. That sensor makes it possible to transport them to the precise right place. 

And they can communicate. And even send video images to the controller. Nanomachines can be more accurate than any human in the world. They can operate between neurons. Because the laser ray destroys targeted cells or plaque. The nanomachine would not be poisonous. Those systems can operate inside the body without large cuts on the skin.

For the first time, Scientists chanced the bonds of a single molecule.

The new ability to change chemical bonds in a single molecule can be a revolutionary advance in nanotechnology. That makes it possible to connect new parts to nanomachines and makes it possible to creates new and more complicated molecules. And nanomachines are complicated molecules.

The IBM researchers used a scanning probe microscope for that operation, as you can see from above. There is the possibility to use also nanolasers for similar purposes. When the system creates nanomachines, nanolasers can adjust the temperature of the single atoms. 

The temperature determines the reaction force of the atoms and molecules. The scanning probe microscope will observe the position of the molecules. And also it can use the subatomic tractor beams for making precise right structures. 




Nanotechnology can use to create new and small-size electronic components like microchips that are controlling robots that are smaller than a flea. Those robots can get their control signals and electricity through the air by radio waves. 

But they can also have small-photovoltaic cells. And the laser systems can deliver electricity for those systems. In the most advanced models, the living electric cells can deliver electricity to those systems. And that means those robot fleas can be very independent. The biological power source requires only sugars. That means the robot flea can drink the same things as humans. 

The subatomic tractor beams, along with nanolasers. And scanning probe microscopes can turn the molecules in the wanted directions. That makes it possible to create complicated and well-adjusted molecular-size structures. Nanomachines can make many things like clean water and remove tumors from places where surgeons cannot reach them. The accuracy of nanomachines is very high. But the problem is how to control them? 

Nanotechnology is a key element in next-generation genetic engineering. The nanorobots will cut the DNA just from the wanted points.  And then those machines can make synthetic DNA. That allows for interconnecting DNA between species that are far from each other. This thing makes it possible that maybe in the world of tomorrow is not things like cancer. But there is needed lots of work with that thing.

Researchers at Kyoto University are starting to test artificial gravitation.



Above: An artist's view of the internal structure of the O'Neill cylinder.

Artificial gravitation is a key element in long-term space travel. The simplest way is to make a cylinder-shaped space station that rotates around its central axle. That thing forms a centripetal force that pulls objects to that structure's core. 

Physicist Gerard K. O'Neill introduced an idea for that kind of that rotating space station was introduced by in the year 1976. And that's why the name of that kind of system is the "O'Neill cylinder". 

The problem with that kind of cylinder is that its rotation speed must be quite fast that it can create the artificial gravitation that is so strong as the gravitation on Earth. So the centripetal force will rip that structure into pieces. And then another argument has been that rotation causes nausea. But the fact is that the gravitation must not be so powerful as it's on Earth. 

The idea is that gravitation anchors vegetables and furniture to the floor of the craft.  And the second thing is that crew can control nausea by using the nausea patch. But the structure of the O'Neill cylinder can be very strong. 

The cylinder can cover by using a steel layer. Then powerful magnets can pull the steel layer inside. That magnetic system can compensate for the effect of centripetal force. By using magnetic assistants, the system can create gravitation. That level is similar to Earth's gravitation.

There are introduced theories, that in the future be the space race. That space race lives entirely their lives in spacecraft and never lands on any planet. 

Maybe in the future is the space race whoever lands on any planet. And that race could live on the zero-gravitation conditions their entire life. That means those people will spend their entire life in space without the ability to land on planets. If those spacemen land on Earth. The gravitation field will crush their bodies immediately. 

The manned interplanetary and later interstellar systems require artificial gravitation if the crew wants to land on some other planets. There is created an idea that the futuristic astronauts who will go on interstellar journeys would live their entire life in zero gravitation conditions. 

That means their muscles and bones will be extremely weak. But those astronauts could control remotely controlled robots on the planet's surface. Those astronauts would never land on any planet themselves. 

When we think about the colonization of the solar system and universe we can think that it goes a similar way to the colonization of Pacific islands. The first humans will colonize the closest planets and moons. But then the journeys will go farther in the solar system. 

And then colonization of Neptune and the Kuiper Belt causes the journey to there and return takes 10-20 years. During those journeys, astronauts will adapt to the weak gravitation. And then some of those people will never return to the surface of any planet. 

Maybe evolution will go that way when we are creating our first interplanetary spacecraft and first laboratories on other planets. Sooner or later, there will be people who will not want to return to Earth. And then the first space-babies are born. 

Those babies think that the base on some icy moon or space station is their home. They ever miss Earth. That is the birth of the space population that will travel more and further away. 

When we are thinking about the real hypothetical space exploration to another solar system and icy moons of Jupiter and Saturn, there is the possibility that astronauts bring some hostile organism like bacteria from the lakes of those planets or moons. That's why the operations on the surface of the planets or icy moons should make be using robots.

The ramjet-driven artillery shell can be the game-changer.


 


Norwegian Nammo-corporation develops a new solid-fuel ramjet-driven artillery shell along with many other defense contractors. The ramjet-driven GPS-guided grenades which range about 90-150 kilometers could be effective against things like TOS rocket launchers. The technology behind the GPS-guided grenades can connect to things like HiMARS heavy rocket launchers. And that thing gives them pinpoint accuracy. 

The ramjet-driven ammunition is not a new idea. In 1915 Hungarian inventor Albert Fonó introduced the idea of ramjet-driven ammunition to increase the artillery range. This solution was far ahead of its time. In 1915 there was no GPS. And the development of solid chemicals that could use as ramjet fuel did not even begin. 

And researchers forgot the ramjet-driven artillery ammunition for a while. In WWII some artillery systems used RAP (Rocket Assistant Projectiles) to increase their range. After the WWII. Ramjet engines are used in some missiles. And those engines are also introduced to use hypersonic cruise missiles. 

The operational speed limit of the ramjet engine is about Mach 1 to Mach 6. Then the engineers must start to use a scramjet engine whose operational limits are from Mach 5 to Mach 20+. But also scramjet-driven systems can use ramjets to accelerate their speed to a level, where the scramjet can start. 

The aircraft will accelerate to the speed of Mach 1 by using the regular turbojets. Then the ramjet engines will start to operate. And after the speed increases to Mach 5, the scramjets will start to operate. And they will increase the speed of the cruise system to levels, that are above Mach 10. 

The ramjet-driven artillery shell uses solid fuel. That means the system takes oxygen from the air. And the friction of the air will start to burn the fuel inside grenades. The GPS-guidance systems are allowing to give those shells pinpoint accuracy. The GPS is not the only possibility to guide ammunition to the target. The ramjet engine can increase the range of the shell by about 100 kilometers. The range of the newest GPS-guided M-982 "Excalibur" ammunition is a maximum of 70 kilometers. The elder version range is 20-40 kilometers. The record of the 155 mm. grenade is about 76 kilometers. And the ramjet system can extend that range to 100 kilometers. 

But the range of that shell depends on its caliber, the aerodynamic property, and the used fuel. The thing is that the artillery shell is quite easy to accelerate to the speed that is about Mach 1. The thing is that if the 155 mm. ramjet-driven GPS-guided ammunition is successful. Theoretically, that thing gives M-777 field howitzers the range of 100-170 kilometers if the ramjet engine gives 100 kilometers more operational range for that system. 

The GPS-guided ramjet-driven ammunition can also use with new magnetic railguns that are under development. In those large-caliber systems, the magnetic accelerator is connected with the barrel of the regular howitzers. The large-size ammunition can accelerate by using magnetic accelerators to a speed that is much higher than using just only regular grenades. 

The range of those systems with ramjet-driven grenades could be over 200 kilometers. But those numbers are purely theoretical.
