LOFAR unveils the unintended electromagnetic echoes of Starlink satellite.


The network of satellites is a useful tool. If the satellites are forming a layer that covers the entire Earth that kind of network can be an extremely useful tool for location, recon, and power supply by using wireless power transmission. The satellite network with telescopes can see every single missile launch on Earth if those satellites can cover an area that is large enough. The satellites can have anti-ASAT systems that can protect them against physical ASAT weapons like anti-satellite missiles. 

The unintended echoes of low-flying satellites are problematic things. Unintended electromagnetic echoes form when electromagnetic radiation impacts satellites. And then that radiation reflects from those objects. The fact is that the reflection of electromagnetic radiation is the thing. That makes a major part of electromagnetic fingerprints of space junk. In the past, the U.S. Air Force researched the possibility to make an electromagnetic shield around Earth by using pins.

The idea was good pins act like Tesla coils. The practical problem was that those pins must be precisely on the same level. And that requires extremely highly accurate positioning of those pins.  But the system requires that those pins are at the same level and all of those pins are in the same direction. If that kind of form of pins is possible to make that system. It can make it possible to create a radio-wave layer between those pins.

"Scientists have used the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR) telescope to observe unintended electromagnetic radiation from SpaceX’s satellites. This radiation, different from regular communication signals, may disrupt astronomical research. The study calls for regulation to protect radio astronomy from such unintended radiation and commends SpaceX for collaborating on mitigation efforts".(ScitechDaily.com/LOFAR Uncovers Starlink’s Secret: Unintended Electromagnetic Emissions From SpaceX’s Satellites)

There is the possibility to create an artificial ionosphere for the moon using Tesla coils. The radiowaves travel between those pins. And the pike aims those radiowaves to the moon. 

If multiple power satellites aim their lasers at one point, they can destroy Earth's surface. The thing is this, the same satellites used as the power supply can use in ASAT(Anti-Satellite) and ABM (Anti-Ballistic Missile)missions. 

There are plans for sending power satellites that send energy to the ground by using lasers, radio masers, or microwaves. Those satellites could benefit high energy ions of the Van Allen belt. And in that passive system satellite, or network of relay satellites can make the system that can send electricity wirelessly to every point on the Earth. 

The problem is that multiple satellites can connect their power and aim their transmitters at one point. That system acts like Death Star's laser. That kind of modular system could be very much powerful. If multiple laser satellites aim their laser at one point that can make those systems dangerous also to the ground objects. 

The system can give energy to high-flying aerial vehicles. The system can harvest energy from the Earth's ion belts. But it also can benefit radio waves that are sent from the ground stations. This kind of system can connect the power satellite and communication tools into one entirety.

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
