Information: the new tool.

    Information: the new tool. 



Information: the new tool. 

We are not in a crisis; we are in the middle of the fastest change in human history. AI and high-power information technology make it possible to connect all our devices and ourselves inside the singularity. In that singularity, the BCI, Brain computer interfaces, can connect us to the endless information flow. Brain-implanted microchips and AI are the ultimate pair, and in the wrong hands, they are among the most dangerous tools. That system allows us to see what we think and what we feel. 

That gives us the ultimate remote view if we can connect our brain-implanted microchips to surveillance cameras. The BCI is the tool that can destroy individualism. It can connect us to the artificial virtual world. And there are many risks. One of the risks is that the person can get lost in the multiple internal virtual worlds. In that vision, the person who uses the BCI can slip into cyberspace and then forget to come out. The virtual reality matrix is the thing. 

That involves multiple internal virtual reality spaces. And if a person uses BCI to enter that virtual space, they will not be able to separate virtual reality from real reality. The person forgets to drink and eat. When microchips give a signal straight to the brain. A person will not separate the data that they give from the data that natural sense gives to them. That means the person will not separate reality from virtual reality. 

The ultimate virtual reality with BCI systems can take us to eternity. That technology allows the transfer of data to people's brains. And this is the key to immortality. In that version of immortality, the person will be cloned, and all data that is stored in their brains will be transferred into the clone. That thing gives the possibility to "live forever". 

And that technology can open the road to interstellar flight. The journey takes about 250 years. Requires a new way to think about space exploration. And we must realize that if we make that journey to the other solar systems, we will never see that crew again.  This is one reason why it's so hard to create bases all around the solar system. Even if we had a nuclear engine, the journey to the outer planets takes years. And if there is some kind of problem, rescue will be impossible. One solution can be a space mission. Made by using AI-controlled robots. The spacecraft takes human-shaped, AI-controlled robots to the target, and the robots collect samples and other things. 

Time is the key problem in interstellar flight. The basic problem is that. The journey takes too long for human life. The "Project Hyperion" is one of the first serious attempts to map how humans can someday travel to the stars. The most common thing is the cryostatic ice where the astronauts will be put for the journey. The cryostatic ice, whose temperature is near 0K, will deny aging. When astronauts come near the other solar system, the system will wake them up. The cryostatic system allows the astronauts to fly for a long time. But the problem is that their friends and families will not see them again. And the cosmic radiation can still harm the DNA of those people. 

Cryotechnology, or cryogenics, gives the possibility to create a very slow time machine. The person can be put into liquid nitrogen. And then the system can wake that person up after 200 years. That is one version of time travel. 

But there are people on Earth who want to freeze themselves into cryostatic ice. The idea is that those people believe. That one day in the future, technology will allow them to wake up. So, they wait in the cryostatic chamber where medical experts create methods to heal their sickness. So, maybe someday in the future, those people will walk on the Earth again. 

But if we think about biotechnology, artificial cells, and viruses. We can see another way to reach immortality. In that case, the nanotechnology replaces damaged DNA with fresh DNA. The nanotechnology creates new DNA and then destroys the old DNA from the cells. And puts that new DNA into mitochondria and the nucleus. This methodology requires a large number of nanomachines, but it's possible to create a nanomachine swarm that can make this thing. 

Researchers can store people in the form of DNA. The DNA can be stored in digital form. And nanomachines will assemble those DNA bits into the new entirety.  Or it can be stored in an extremely static environment. The system just injects that DNA into the cells and grows a clone of the person. And after that, the BCI system can transfer memories of the person to that clone. That requires that those memories be stored somewhere. The system can use artificial cells to transfer memories to the clone. Memories are stored in the DNA, and then the artificial cell can transfer them to the nervous system by using electric impulses and neurotransmitters.

Quantum microchips and photonic interactions.



"Artistic representation of metasurface quantum graphs. Credit: Joshua Mornhinweg" (ScitechDaily, Harvard Just Collapsed a Quantum Computer Onto a Chip)



Harvard scientists built a quantum computer on a chip. And that drives advances to the room- or table-sized quantum computers and quantum networks. This kind of system can also make the quantum internet, at least in the short range, possible. But long-distance wireless quantum communication requires new tools like photonics. Some researchers say that the future is in photonic microchips. That means the light acts as a data transporter. Those systems will use less energy than electric microchips.  But that thing requires new systems like optical gates. Today, researchers can make photonic microchips, but those systems are large-scale, and their mirrors and light cutters require AI-based systems that can control those light-based components. 

The main problem is how to make effective photonic versions of the electric components. And especially the photonic gates and switches are hard to make. The reason for that is that leaders will heat the physical iris. And controlling that system is not as effective as it should be. Data travels differently in those microchips. Theoretically, the system can use two frequencies or colors. The green can be one, and red can be zero. The system inputs serial numbers to those photonic bits so that the system can sort them into the right order. But the control system is very complicated. 





"Light can scatter off light, revealing ghostly particles and clues to cracking the universe’s fundamental laws. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Light Versus Light: The Secret Physics Battle That Could Rewrite the Rules)


Photonic interactions can solve many problems in quantum networks. If we think of a system that shoots a thin light wave or light quantum through the photon, that system can make the new quantum internet possible. The system downloads data to the particle from the photon, and then that data travels to that wave. For working perfectly, that system requires very accurate ways to control photons and their interactions. The photonic systems that are in the photonic interactions, where light scatters light to make possible things like optical gates. The photonic gate means a system where another lightwave or photon cuts the route of the lightwave. The system can also adjust the energy level of the light wave or adjust the lightwave’s wavelength. 

The photonic system that scatters light allows the cone that protects microchips and sensitive components against outgoing radiation. That system makes lightwaves travel past the layer. It would deny electromagnetic waves from reaching the shell of the system. The photonic interaction or scattering effect can make it possible to create new types of stealth systems. The idea is that the light or photons form a needle that scatters lightwaves past the object. If that scattered light can aim electromagnetic radiation to reach and reflect from the surface or aims reflection out from the observer, that thing makes the object itself invisible. There can be standing waves at the crossing point of the scattered waves. So the observer would see the lights in those points.

New drone carriers are the most dangerous things in the world.



"Illustration of the Jiu Tian drone carrier, the world's largest, poised to revolutionize military operations with drone swarms." (Rude Baguette, “This Isn’t a Ship, It’s a Swarm Factory”: China’s Giant Drone Carrier Alarms Military Analysts Worldwide) The super- and probably hypersonic applications of that system can be more effective than this drone mothership. 

The Chinese drone carrier can be only the beginning of a new type of independent drone swarm carriers. Basically, every type of system can carry drones. Satellites or ballistic missiles can also carry drone capsules. Or things like cluster bomb units can also carry drones. And that makes those systems versatile for many purposes. Regular cargo planes can drop drone swarms from high altitude. 

And things like airships and balloons can also carry capsules that can release drone swarms. A Ukrainian company introduced a small drone boat that carries another drone on its deck. Larger drones can carry more drones than those miniature systems. It’s possible to put quadcopters on the nose of underwater drones and launch those systems underwater. Artificial intelligence gives even small-sized drones the ability to make evasion movements when they detect counterfire. 

Drones can also slip into buildings and observe things like computer screens. Basically, the drone can also insert a USB stick into the targeted system and download computer viruses into that system. A logical bomb is a virus that responds to a certain signal. And that can leave the entire area without defense. A drone can also carry things like a Mesh station. That can link all data that travels on the net to the outsider eavesdropper.

Droneswarms can cause lots of damage in the target areas. The optical fiber makes drones immune to the standard ECM systems. But the high-power EMP can destroy those drones’ electronics. The only weakness of the fiber-optical control system is the wire. If some other drone finds that fiber, it can cut it. Or the laser system can also cut the optical fiber that is behind those drones. But the next step is the AI-controlled drone. The AI allows drones to operate independently without outside control. The laser systems, like optical wireless data transportation, also make it possible to create guidance systems that are hard to jam. 

But those systems require direct contact with the transmitter. This is why things like pseudosatellites or high-altitude platform stations (HAPS) can be the right tools for delivering drone swarms. The HAPS can itself be a robot airplane, balloon, or airship that drops those drone swarms to areas. The drone itself is a multipurpose tool that can search for missing people and give warnings about things like volcanic eruptions. But those systems can also deliver destruction and fear. The high-speed stealth interceptors that can be manned or unmanned systems can deliver drone swarms into the area. Those kamikaze-drones can search and destroy the anti-aircraft systems and keep their crews busy, when the other systems attack harder targets. 

Laser- and microwave-based systems can destroy drone swarms. But those systems must detect drones before they can act. There is always the possibility that drones can travel on the ground or underwater, and then another drone that hits a laser or microwave weapon from behind can destroy those weapons. The power that those systems use should be so high that they destroy the physical components of drone swarms.

The new drone can operate on land, in the air, and underwater.



"Illustration of a 3D-printed drone transitioning between air and water environments, generated by artificial intelligence." (Rude Baguette)

The new drone can operate on land, in the air, and underwater.


In the 1930s, the Soviet engineers tried to create the aircraft-submarine combination. That system could slip near the target underwater and launch attack systems. Then that system can fly away from that area. The problem was that technology was not advanced enough. But AI-controlled quadcopters can make it possible to create that kind of system. Theoretically, the nuclear-powered systems can make even full-size “flying submarines” possible. The system can use quadcopter technology. The new drone can dive and fly. But there is a possibility to make those drones more versatile than systems that can fly and dive. The new drone can have multiple sensors, such as sonars and radar altimeters, at the propeller frames. 

The quadcopters are less sensitive than helicopters to cases where they hit some walls if their propellers are protected by using frames. The rotating frame allows the system to travel through very narrow points. And if the system can adjust the propeller's position by pulling them together when the robot or quadcopter system swims through a narrow hole, it makes those systems more flexible than a regular helicopter can be. 


 But the smaller systems can make it possible to create systems that can fly, dive, and drive on roads. 


The new drone can operate in the air and underwater. An interesting thing in hydro- and aerodynamics is that using the same dimensions, it is possible to make many sizes of crafts from pocket-size applications to truck-size systems. The next step can be a drone that can drive on roads, fly, and travel underwater, which can slip in places where regular drones cannot operate. Those drones can travel in aircraft safety hangars. And the AI-controlled drones can stay on the ground and wait for the right moment. 

That kind of technology is the new tool for many things, from research to leisure, and military applications. The drone that can turn its propellers to push along the frame can make it possible for those systems to operate underwater. Then the propellers or propeller pairs can turn into positions that make the system a “regular” quadcopter. And finally, when the drone operator wants to drive on the road, the propeller frames act as wheels. Those drones can act as research systems, or they can even transport groups of people. 

The high-tech system operates almost independently. And that makes the system easy to handle. Those systems can be manned or unmanned. And they can be dropped from airships, aircraft, or from submarines. The ability to travel on ground, airborne, or underwater makes it possible for drones to operate in complicated situations. They can observe drain systems. They can travel in caves that can be very narrow. The ability to travel in three elements gives those drones abilities that can be used in some accident, or as a military target. 

Theoretically, that kind of drone can carry even small nuclear explosives.  Those drones can be delivered from some airships or bigger drones. And the thing is that those modern drones can be carried using manned aircraft, or some larger-sized drones, or even satellites. There are many roles that drones can play. They can travel over an area and send wake-up signals to the eavesdropping and surveillance tools that somebody has hidden in offices and other rooms.

What would you do with a pocket-sized spectrometer?



"A tiny, fast, and powerful light analyzer could soon bring lab-grade spectroscopy to your pocket. Credit: Shutterstock" (ScitechDaily, This Tiny Device Could Turn Your Phone Into a Lab-Grade Spectrometer)

"A team of engineers has unveiled a revolutionary mini-spectrometer that can fit on a fingertip and operate with low voltage, scanning light from UV to near-infrared in under a millisecond. "(ScitechDaily, This Tiny Device Could Turn Your Phone Into a Lab-Grade Spectrometer)

"This game-changing device replaces bulky traditional spectrometers and could soon be embedded in smartphones, unlocking powerful tools for material analysis, biomedical diagnostics, and more—right in your pocket. Its tiny photodetector shifts light sensitivity with simple voltage changes, offering speed and precision in a package smaller than a pixel." (ScitechDaily, This Tiny Device Could Turn Your Phone Into a Lab-Grade Spectrometer)

The new device transforms a normal cell phone into a lab-grade spectrometer. That kind of tool can be useful in many situations. Spectrometers can search for air pollution, pollution from water, poisonous substances, etc. People like crime-scene investigators, house inspectors, military personnel, and all interested people can use those systems for searching for chemical compounds. 

A spectrometer is a multi-use tool. It can search all types of chemical compounds. People who work in a crisis environment can search for things like nerve gases in the air using spectrometers. A pocket-sized spectrometer can give a warning about a chemical weapon. And that gives time to begin the counteractions. 



"Researchers have successfully demonstrated a spectrometer that is orders of magnitude smaller than current technologies and can accurately measure wavelengths of light from ultraviolet to the near-infrared. The technology makes it possible to create hand-held spectroscopy devices and holds promise for the development of devices that incorporate an array of the new sensors to serve as next-generation imaging spectrometers. This photo shows a series of prototype organic photodetector-based spectrometer cells. Each metal bar is a detector capable of measuring light spectra.

The spectrometer that cooperates with AI assistants can tell about things like harmful chemicals. And that tool can be useful in everyday life, scientific, leisure, and military worlds. The system that can search for poisonous chemicals can make our holidays successful. That kind of system can tell if we can drink some water or if some kind of food is contaminated. The thing that makes us sick is often chemicals that bacteria create in their metabolism.

The system can search for things like botulinum in meat or other toxic chemicals. If we connect a spectrometer to a telescope, that thing can tell us about the chemical environment of some other planet or distant houses. The system can also connect with microscopes that give the possibility to see chemical reactions in very small objects like cells. 

Pocket-sized spectrometers that can tell about chemical mixtures can revolutionize laboratory work and chemistry learning. Those things are useful in all cases where people want to see what some chemical compounds involve. Those things can tell how well an engine burns fuel. Or how clean water is. That kind of information can save lives.

Researchers created an artificial cell that can move using its own chemical reactions.



Self-replicating machines, or Von Neumann machines, are artificial cells. 


The artificial cell, or biological nanomachine, is an organic structure that can make a copy of itself using polymerase reactions. So, we can say that the polymerase molecules that can duplicate themselves are the artificial cells. The nanopolymer that can self-replicate is the simplest possible artificial cell. If that kind of polymer travels in the desired cells, it can simply fill those cells. That means those molecules act like ricin. The nanomachine can also destroy the cell so that the gangrene will not spread. 

Those organic polymers can also be used to close blood vessels. In ideal cases, those molecules can make copies of themselves using molecules that are in their environment. So the nanomachine can benefit similar proteins that form cells. That makes those polymers suitable for surgical operations. But those things can also have military applications. The artificial cell can produce those molecules. The cell can release them through its ion pump. 

"The terms "artificial cell" and "synthetic cell" are used in a variety of different fields and can have different meanings, as it is also reflected in the different sections of this article. Some stricter definitions are based on the assumption that the term "cell" directly relates to biological cells and that these structures therefore have to be alive (or part of a living organism) and, further, that the term "artificial" implies that these structures are artificially built from the bottom-up, i.e. from basic components. As such, in the area of synthetic biology, an artificial cell can be understood as a completely synthetically made cell that can capture energy, maintain ion gradients, contain macromolecules as well as store information and have the ability to replicate. This kind of artificial cell has not yet been made." (Wikipedia, Artificial cell) 



That is the nanotechnical version of the artificial cells. Technology advances, and AI can read DNA quite well. That means the DNA-controlled nanomachines, like cells that produce medicines, travel in the body, search for the right cells, and then inject those medicines into targeted cells, can be a reality quite soon. Those cells might have a self-destruction mode. When they do their mission, they will destroy themselves. Those cells might not have the ability to decay. But there is always the possibility that some retrovirus can destroy that self-destruction mechanism. 

The macro-size version of those things is the automated factory that uses robot swarms and robot groups to make a copy of itself. Those automated, AI-controlled systems can play a vital role in space exploration. 

The automated factory utilizes robots to source materials for new robots and other products that can be manufactured using advanced 3D printers. That system can create a fully functioning copy of itself. So that means the Von Neumann machines, or self-replicating machines, are some kind of macro cells. The nano-sized artificial cell is the nano-sized Von Neumann machine. 

But the artificial cell can also mean that DNA is cleaned of unnecessary sequences. That means those artificial cells can make only things that their creators want. The artificial cell can create many things, like artificial spider silk, which is one of the strongest materials in nature. The hollow fiber of nanosilk can be used to destroy targeted cells. Those nano-silk fibers can lock the targeted cells' ion pumps. Or they can be used to inject things like biologically produced medicines into the desired cells.  Artificial cells are like physical versions of distilled AI. Those cells can do only things that their creators want. 

The polymerase chain reactions make it possible to create lots of those systems. The self-replicating molecules can make new types of medicine possible. And they can also be used in self-assembly structures. But the artificial cells required outside energy sources, until now. The internal power source makes those cells more independent. That allows them to travel in the body and search for things like bacteria and cancer cells.

The spaceborne missile defense platforms can be a reality sooner than we thought.




The golden dome chief said that spaceborne anti-missile systems are possible today. The Reagan era’s strategic defense initiative,(SDI), was too futuristic. The reason for that was the primitive laser and data processing technology. But today, systems like laser weapons and independently operating space missile platforms are possible. The image-recognition systems make it possible to select the right targets from the suspected incoming missiles, and those systems can also destroy enemy satellites. The idea of those systems is that high-orbiting satellites see missile launches. 

And then they can try to destroy those missiles using rockets or some directed energy weapons like railguns, lasers, plasma, or microwaves. The reason why those platforms are in high orbit is that they should have the ability to avoid ground- or atmospheric-based anti-satellite (ASAT) weapons. The problem with those anti-ballistic missile (ABM) systems is that. If the enemy knows their trajectories, it can send things like a metal ball-swarm to orbit in the opposite way to those weapons. The missile can be shot from the other side of Earth, and it must raise those metal profiles to the same trajectory as the ABM weapon. 

The idea of the ABM systems is not new. The Patriot and other kinds of anti-aircraft missiles can shoot enemy ballistic missiles down. But the problem with those kinds of systems is that they are created to shoot down tactical, conventional missiles. The problem with strategic missiles is that if nuclear missiles are destroyed over some territory, that spreads plutonium all around the area. A counter system like Soviet/Russian ABM-1 “Galosh” and the U.S. Nike Zeus that shoots enemy missiles down by using thermonuclear warheads. The radioactive debris and high-energy ions will make that trajectory useless. 


Soviet Energia rocket with Polyus spacecraft. 


"A notional rendering of China's reusable Shenlong space plane. (Image credit: Erik Simonsen/Getty Images),  (Space.com, China's space plane apparently deployed 6 'mysterious wingmen' in orbit)


The nuclear warhead can send high-energy radiation across the Earth, destroying lots of its own and enemy satellites. If that detonation happens over its own territory, the EMP pulse destroys electronics below it. In the 1960s, the U.S. and the Soviets tested or researched systems that were modified fractional orbital bombardment systems. One of those systems was the Soviet "Polyus". Spacecraft that could carry a laser weapon and space mines. That system flew once in 1984, and the rocket's failure caused the Soviets to stop that program. 

Those systems were nuclear bombs that were positioned in an orbital trajectory. Those nuclear weapons could attack cities. Or they can detonate at an orbiter. That makes them space mines that can have ABM and ASAT roles. There is a possibility that in 2023, the Chinese shuttle that deployed six mysterious “wingmen” tested the ability to release and collect space mines from the orbiter. 

The other problem is the changed missile tactics. When those counter ballistic missiles were created, they developed against the missile mass-raid. The fireball of the warhead that detonated in the middle or a little forward of the incoming missiles will destroy those warheads with radiation and an EMP pulse. But the problem is that the missile tactics have changed. The nuclear strike can be made using multiple waves. That can cause a situation where the defender must shoot more than enough nuclear warheads into space. And that destroys lots of satellites. 

This is the reason why the small-sized shuttles that can use stealth technology are suitable for ASAT and ABM operations. Those systems can check the orbital defense platforms' conditions. And they can deliver and collect sub weapons.
