Underwater microrobot swarms are coming.

Microrobots are the next-generation tools for civil and military purposes. Microrobot swarms can clean water by collecting poisonous chemicals from water. Microrobots can colect oil and platics. They can capture bacteria from wastewater. 

 In some models, the microrobot can carry a filter system.  Those microrobots can be quadcopters that can operate airborne and underwater. The microrobots can filter the air the same way. They can pump polluted air through filters. And that can be useful at least in closed spaces like rooms. 

The robot drives polluted water through that filter. The filter can separate microplastics from water. Or the robot can act like a pelican fish. And that allows them to open their "stomach" and collect that oil from water. The microrobots can also map sealife and magma eruptions. They can go to places that are too dangerous for humans. 

Those systems can follow the whales and then map those animal's communication. The microrobots can slip into shipwrecks and even animals' stomachs. There, machines can research what those animals eat in the natural environment. And they can take samples from deep sea animal tissues. 

In the world of intelligence and military. The micro drone swarms can operate in recon and attack roles. Microdrones can protect naval bases and all other important targets. In those cases, the microrobot swarms can wait at the bottom of the sea, and then they can deny the attempts to enter the base. 

Microrobots can connect to the communication antennas and resend data transmission to the opponent. The microrobot can also hang a submarine's shell and send tracking signals. Micromachines can carry explosives or acoustic devices that can make small holes into the submarine's shell or damage its propellers. If the micromachine makes a centimeter hole in the submarine's hull at 500 m depth. Water pressure can break the shell. 

The microrobot swarms can make the Status-6 nuclear torpedo look like a toy. 

But the microrobots can act as devastating weapons. Underwater microrobots can carry plutonium and lithium-deuteride. When those drones get the order, they can drive themselves together. That thing forms a critical mass. And it can cause the ultimate destruction. The modular hydrogen bombs are machines that the microrobot swarms can turn into reality.

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
