The 74 meters hydrogen-powered hydrofoil yacht creates 15 000 hp.

The new Plectrum superyacht uses hydrogen turbines and its engines are creating 15 000 hp. That thing makes the 74-meter hydrofoil yacht travel over the sea at a speed of 140 km/h. That kind of yacht is technically interesting in many ways. The hydrogen turbines can use hydrogen, which is possible to create in the yacht. There are many ways to create that hydrogen. And one of them is the capillary tube that can fall in depth. And that thing makes it possible to create hydrogen by using a dynamo. That thing takes time, and maybe the electricity for electrolysis is easier to take from the ground or the yacht's diesel engines.

There is also the possibility that in the future yachts can use Fletnner-turbines for making hydrogen, and that system can make driving with this kind of vehicle free. The water statue that can be driven to the Flettner turbine from below the craft can make this turbine independent from the winds. And green energy is always interesting especially if it can decrease pollution and give the vehicle ultimate power.

Flying submarines are always interesting. There are already drones that can operate underwater. But the full-scale models that are manned subs, with a length of about 50-70 m. could be interesting. Modern technology and modern materials would turn the old dream into truth.

There is the possibility that flying submarines are possible sooner than we even can imagine. If we think of the Plectrum, there is the possibility to make the Super U-boat that can submerge, drive on its hydrofoils, and even fly. From the 1930s to the 1950's the Soviets and the USA tried to create flying submarines.

But in that case, technology was not advanced enough that those systems can turn realistic. The speed of those systems was not very good. And 2 knots of speed underwater caused those systems to be unable to operate. But by using modern technology the "flying super-U-boats could turn to reality.

Sometimes the U.S. version is planned to wake by using MHD (magnetohydrodynamic drive)technology. The engine of the V-1- (Flying Bomb) style miniature submarine will equip with MHD technology. And that allows the miniature sub to move very fast and silently.

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
