Bacteriophages can take the form of sunflowers.



"McMaster University researchers found that bacteriophages treated under specific conditions form flower-like structures that are highly efficient in targeting bacteria, opening new possibilities for the treatment and detection of diseases." (ScitechDaily, Nature-Inspired Viruses Form Living “Sunflowers” To Combat Disease)

Complicated DNA-controlled structures can revolutionize medicine development. But it can make also many more things. 

Bacteriophages can make forms that look like sunflowers. Their ability to combine their bodies makes phages more effective against targeted bacteria. Sunflower-form virus structures can be a tool for researchers to use against infections. However, those virus structures are also interesting tools for people who create nanomachines and nanostructures. 

As you see, viruses can make complicated structures. And that makes it possible to use them to create structures for nanomechanics. The DNA-controlled crystal formation is the tool that developers can use to create the nanomachines. The nanomaterial means material that looks the same as normal material. But there are nanometer-sized internal structures. That gives those materials new abilities. If we think about things like nanotechnical wires. 



The ability to create complicated structures. Can make it possible to create medicines and structures that can make many things possible from medicine to nanomachines and DNA-based data storage. 

The nanotechnical wire can have structures that look like plates. There can be a pike on the other side of the plate. And hole at another side. That thing makes it possible to increase the length of the wire. Or if something cuts the wire. It's possible to create a structure that can fix itself. The only need is to put those gripping surfaces together. The nanowires can form structures like nano-canvas that can fix their damages without needing help. 

Nanotechnology is an impressive tool. The viruses that can take any form are the things that can make many things for nanotechnology. When the virus is made the structure the UV-radiation can destroy the DNA. And that helps to create a complicated crystal structure that is suitable for nanotechnology. 

The data can be stored in genetically engineered cells to create the wanted forms. (ScitechDaily, Nature-Inspired Viruses Form Living “Sunflowers” To Combat Disease)

The form of the cell can mean zero or one. The third form can mean. That the system must wait for the new cell. 

In DNA-based data storage, the system can use the forms that genetically engineered cells can take to transmit data to an AI-based operating system. 

If we think of the possibility of creating DNA-based data storage. There is one simple way to create that thing without the need to read the DNA. DNA-controlled viruses or cells can take a series of certain forms. There is a need for two or three forms if the DNA-based data storage uses binary data storage. 

Those forms like "star" can mean one, and "square" can mean zero. And ring might mean that the DNA ends and the system must wait for the next cell or virus group. There can be two groups of cells. The other is dark and another has a genome for bioluminance. The system shares the data in two cell lines and it can use the luminance to see that the system has changed the cell. 

The other forms have let's say pink and red colors. And the other is green and yellow. In those systems, the data is stored in two lines. The system feeds the reading system. By using those lines one after one. A change of color or shine tells that the cell or virus group is changed. And that makes the reader collect data together. 

Or red sunflower can mean one and yellow sunflower can mean zero. The green sunflower can mean the end of the DNA. The system requires a microscope with a machine view to observe those structures. The operating system follows those images. That the cells or viruses can make. And then it can use the DNA as data storage in an easy way.

Could active carbon bring the solution to climate changing?

https://gamesandtehories.blogspot.com/

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Some ideas seem like they are made by maniacs, but one idea came in my mind, and that idea is stopping the climate changing, by covering large areas of the surface of the Earth with carbon plates, where are tubes under them. That allows that the gas or in this case air would go through the carbon layer, and that would separate carbon from the oxygen, and that would remove the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

That carbon-filter system is made actually for the colonization of the planet Venus. In some theoretical plans large areas of the surface of planet Venus would be covered by casks, what are covered with canvas, where is a carbon layer. This carbon cleaner would help the micro-organisms work when they are cleaning the hostile atmosphere of that planet.

 In that hypothetical plan the carbon would get from the vegetables, what are grown in the Venus, for this cleaning operation, and if those vegetables are burned, the carbon could salvage, and then used for covering layer of asbestos canvas, what would be used for filters, what would increase the speed of removing the carbon from the atmosphere of that planet.  Those organisms can plant in the airships, what are created for HAVOC-program, what is a plan for creating the cloud city over the clouds of Venus.

Those organisms, what would be used in this operation, if it someday would be done will be single cell algae and the archaebacterium, what is found near the volcanic holes on Earth. And of course, if the carbon bites would be loaded with electricity, the iron atoms would be connected with them, and the magnetic field would move them into the atmosphere of Venus. if this works in Venus, would this kind of operation be made in the Earth, and it could be removed the carbon dioxide from the atmosphere.

Sometimes there have been ideas, that the massive cloud of the small size carbon dust would be released to the atmosphere, and if those dust bites would equip with the iron atom, would their position control by using magnet-field. This makes that carbon cloud works like a giant broom. This system could be used for cleaning the atmosphere. And of course, electromagnetic radiation or sound, what causes resonance in the carbon dioxide or monoxide molecules could break the connection with oxygen and carbon atom. This can also help to remove carbon from the atmosphere of Venus, and that electromagnetic radiation can be given from Earth by using powerful lasers or radio telescopes. The same system can be used for cleaning the atmosphere of the earth.

Dangers of the antibiotics resistant bacteria

https://gamesandtehories.blogspot.com/

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Anthrax is very easy to detect as the biological weapon. That kind of stuff can be delivered by using letters. and sometimes I have thought that could somebody send that kind of letter to the targeted persons, and be clever enough to avoid the authorities? The only needed thing for that is that the person has got the vaccine against that bacteria. The production of vaccine would happen by killing the bacteria by using UV-lamps, and the core antigen of that bacteria would make the immune system to detect and fight against those organisms.

The problem with this method, where the bacteria or viruses DNA would be destroyed is that this method can be used to make new kind of biological weapons by using natural organisms, what is the breed for resisting the antibiotics. This methodology would allow creating more deadly and unseen biological weapons by using bacteria, what are classified as the harmless because the antibiotics have been effective against them. In nature, this kind of population of Tuberculosis is forming in Africa, because people would not eat their antibiotics as they are meant. And because the period of using medicine would finish too early, would that leave the strongest bacteria alive. And that makes the population of bacteria, what is resistant to antibiotics.  Bacteria is more suitable for biological weapons than viruses because controlling those organisms is easier than controlling viruses.

Stealth biological weapons are harder to detect. They are bacteria like Tuberculosis, what are only made strengthen by using UV-radiation or antibiotics for creating the population, what is immune for antibiotics. In that operation would weak individuals of the population killed by giving them medicines or radiation, and that kind of organism would be absolutely lethal, and also it's hard to discover as the biological weapon.

Making super dangerous bacteria is happening to give the population UV-radiation. That radiation would kill the bacteria, what are genetically weak, After that the strong bacteria is left in population. And this makes those organisms very lethal. By using this method, could somebody make strikes, what is very hard to notice as the biological weapon, In this case, even the Streptococcus would be turned as the perfect biological weapon, what is very hard to separate as the weapons. Use of natural organisms is a dangerous method, because the strikes, what are made with bioweapons can be hidden from the public audience.

The strange thing about some letters, what sends in those cases, is that the used organism was Anthrax, what is profiled as a biological weapon. This makes some of those strikes very interesting because if somebody wants to kill some other person, there would be more suitable weapons for that thing, and those weapons are harder to track. Botulinum and Phosgene are easier to get, and the making of those chemicals is easier than handling Anthrax. Only thing, what the producer need to get is grass or meat with earth, and the drum, what can be closed airtight. And in anaerobic conditions, the organisms would make those chemicals, if the murdered man wants to use poison,

But protection against those chemicals is harder than protection against Anthrax. If the handler would have vaccine or antibiotics would that organism not to infect that person. But the key element is, if that person, who wants to make murder does have Vaccine, and the right conditions for making that weapon, would the Anthrax very effective way to give the signal, that nobody is safe.

Why penicillin is losing its power?

https://gamesandtehories.blogspot.com/

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Penicillin was one of the first so-called wonder medical, what was easy to produce and that mushroom poison has saved billions of lives. But the fact is that this medicine has been lost its power. The penicillin is used without control and the problem with this kind of usage is that the bacteria, what have weak genomes would be destroyed. And the bacteria with strong genomes are surviving from this medicine.

The doses and numbers of the penicillin pills have calculated that way, the dose of the medicine is effective against bacteria, and when the period is over, the bacteria would be lost. In this case, the patient must eat all pills, but if this person would not do that, it will begin the eugenics process in that bacteria population. That means the penicillin destroys weak bacteria, and that would make those bacteria stronger than ever before.


This method where bacteria would expose by medicine or ultra-violet light is used to make artificial bacteria population for biological warfare. In the movies, we see that biological weapons are mainly the viruses like Ebola, but in the real life the laboratories, what investigates biological warfare are interested in natural bacteria like tuberculosis because every state in the world has signed the treatment to deny the biological weapons. But those weapons are very attractive in the world of the military.


The producer of the strong bacteria doesn't need complicated laboratories. Only thing, what that person needs is the raising platform where is the bacteria culture and ultra-violet light. By using that equipment can this person create extreme lethal and invisible biological weapons. So this makes this thing so frightening. The actors might not be governmental, and the purpose of the biological weapon could sweep some area clean from people, that some company can begin to dig the diamonds from those areas.


And when we are thinking about the "blood diamonds" of Congo, we might ask, are those diggings happen without the knowledge of the mining companies, or how those diamonds what are using for buying guns for the guerrillas enter the marketing, and how they can sell it to buyers? That kind of people would like that there is no evidence about their actions in the jungles because that would be bad for business. In those officially illegal mining would be many people, who are working as slaves for getting the weapons for the gunmen, who are controlling the diamonds. And if they would inject the bacteria to the workers, they could kill them imperceptibly by using bacteria like cholera or diphtheria, what is easy to claim natural epidemics.  And in that case, the workers must not get their payments, what those guerrillas have promised for them.


The natural organisms are easy to weaponize by making them stronger than before. In those cases, the tolerance capacity of bacteria would be increased by breeding them by using antibiotics or ultra-violet radiation. After that, the super-bacteria would be delivered to the area, and that would seem like normal epidemics, what would be caused by resistant tuberculosis. And here I must ask, is there something, what somebody doesn't want to tell the people about the antibiotics resistant bacteria like tuberculosis, because those things are not often handle in public media?

Fictional swimming trip to the exoplanets oceans


Artist's impression of Kepler 22b

http://kimmontaidearvioita.blogspot.com/p/fictional-swimming-trip-to-exoplanets.html

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Every exoplanet, what we know is very far away, and that's the reason, why all trips to those planets are only speculations. We must create more advanced technology to make that kind of trip to exoplanets like Kepler 22b, where seems to be the giant ocean. That kind of exoplanets are very fascinating and in many imaginational stories, people would swim in those giant oceans, what are covering all planet. Oceans of those water-planets are very deep, and if the estimated depth of the oceans is 100 kilometers, the swimmer would see the darkness under the body.


There could also be water-planets, what have islands and shoal ocean, what might be only 20 meters deep, but this is only the speculation. Nowadays scientists have found only the exoplanets, what would have very deep oceans or another way we might say, that water layer on the surface of those planets is very squad. Kepler 22b is actually 1,5 times larger than Earth, and that's why swimming on its oceans would be extremely heavy.


And even there would not be the similar atmosphere, what allows our fictional astronaut to breath, in the oceans might be animals. Of course, those animals might be very big, like giant whales, because there might be Oxygen in the oceans. But the main problem would be bacteria-size fauna. Those very small organisms would cause infection in the bodies of astronauts, and that would be the biggest threat in that trip.


That's why we cannot go any habitable planet without bio-protective suit and gas masks, or the organisms on that planet would destroy us. The bio-protective suit is actually the overalls, what denies the skin to make contact with the atmosphere and microbes. In some scenarios, the astronauts, who would land to the habitable planet would cover their skin with Vaseline, or some other material like rubber, what would be sprayed to their skin, but this solution would leave skin without oxygen.


And that's why those astronauts must be used NBC-gas gear. If those astronauts want to use sprayed protection, they must be careful, because the bacteria, what is going to the anaerobic environment could cause infections. That's is the reason, that those sprayed solutions would not be suitable for the long-term use. But the film of this thing would be below the text, and I hope that you enjoy that film.

Somebody still selling oil to North-Korea


Picture 1


Kimmo Huosionmaa

In the satellite pictures is seen that Chinese and Russian tankers are selling oil to North-Korea, and this is the very bad thing for the international community. When some members of international community slips of the line, there will be problems with the effect of those sanctions against that land. The problem of the situation in the Korean peninsula is that it will take the international observes out of some other states human right conditions and another kind of things.


When there will be the nuclear crisis in Korea,  the United Nations observations would turn away from another, less interesting places like Ukraine and Middle-East. The nuclear crises are very interesting and frightening situations because the nuclear weapons are so devastating, but the North-Korean military have more notorious weapons than nukes, and proof of those weapons have been found one North-Korean military personal flesh. In this case is the question of biological weapons.


Those organisms that are found are anthrax-bacteria, but I don't know have somebody modified the genomes of those bacteria? In some scenarios, there is possible to connect the mushroom genomes in the bacteria, what makes those organisms act like mushrooms. In this scenario manipulated bacteria creates the form of hypha and that organism will stay at the chains, what can make them more devastating than any natural anthrax bacteria can be. But if some state will want to make biological weapons it will also need nuclear explosives.


Because if there is the leak in the laboratory, where those organisms are kept, must that place sterilize immediately. Best way to make that sterilization is to use nuclear weapons for destroying the laboratory and organisms what are inside it. The problem of biological weapons is that only one piece bacteria is enough for making those weapons. And even if the weapons would be destroyed, there might found some test tube in some icebox, and the cultivating of the new population of the bacteria is very easy.


That's why the North-Korea have changed more complicated. This state has got more powerful weapons with nukes, and it will give the power for Kim Jong Un and his government to counteract the international sanctions. And even his nukes can't destroy the military command systems of the United States, could those weapons give that leader more power in his leadership, because he will use the nukes as the power of domestic politics, what can force the people of the North-Korea to stay in the form.

The new asteroid, what comes from interstellar space, might give us the new way to look the universe

Oumuamua
(ESO)

Kimmo Huosionmaa

https://sites.google.com/view/asteroidfromanotherstar/etusivu

The asteroid is named as Oumuamua, and it is very long shape particle of the stone, what comes from somewhere very far. And this object is traveling to the center of our galaxy. The reason why Oumuamua is the thing, what might cause the talk about the threats what comes from the outer space, is that we don't actually know where that particle of the universe is actually coming from.


In the wildest theories that particle might come from another galaxy, and in some wildest dreams that kind of objects might contain even the cells from another solar system. If that particle has been born, when some asteroid have been hit to the water planet or supernova has been destroyed some planet, there is a possibility that asteroid contains living bacterias from another planet.


That scenario bases the theory, that in those asteroids is little pockets of water, and if the heat is not very high, will those organisms freeze near absolute zero points of Celsius, and that will allow those organisms stay alive in that super cold conditions. If the organisms will freeze in the absolute zero point, what is in physics zero kelvin all movements and molecular oscillation will stop, and that means those bacterias might stand forever they capacity to infect the planet.


If we are talking about this situation against the Big Bang theory, there might be the situation, where those particles come really far away.  In the Big Bang theory is a part, known as the Big Crash theory. In that theory, the universe will fall sooner or later in some black hole, and then will the new universe begin to form, when that black hole will explode. And if there has been another universe before our own universe, that particle might come from that past universe. All asteroids will not flush to that black hole, and if they are far enough from the point of the Big Bang, those asteroids can deliver bacterias from the past universe, and if we will go farther in this thinking process, we might think that those aliens, what  lived in this theoretical situation, might survive with flying their spaceships far from the point of the Big Bang.  That would be very interesting talking about the cosmologists and physics. That talking will be puzzled about the question, what kind of species lived in the universe what existed before our universe.  But there might one big risk about those particles, what can cause the end of the Earth.


If that particle is antimatter, and it will explode in our solar system, will the results are very devastating, even if that particle of the antimatter will not hit the earth. The planets might collapse from their trajectories, and if the antimatter pierces hits the Jupiter, will it cause the horrifying situation. And if it hits to the Earth, will the results that the earth will completely destroy and changes as a molecular nebula. The most exotic thing what will be told about this asteroid is that will be some kind of spaceship. This will be a good reason for some theories, that some scientists will cover that information. But that is only the humorous citation for the end of this text.
