Theory of The Phaistos disk

When I'm writing about the Phaistos disk, I must say that this text is only the guess about the purpose of the Phaistos disk, and it might be not so dramatic as many people think. The reason for that artifact is probably hiding the messages between the kings or priests.  The simplest explanation for this plate is not crypto-plate. It might be the orders, how the priests must act when they performed the rituals in the front of the people.


The priest couldn't ask anybody help when he performed his rituals, and that was the reason because they needed orders, what to do, and this was the reason, why those disks are made. The orders to the priests were covered as the art. And that was the reason, why that nice looking artifact is found from in the ruins of temples.


The purpose of this spectacular artifact from the past is probably the code disk, what has been used for coding the messages. The use of the code disks is very easy. There are normally two plates, what makes two rings of the letters. When the coder wanted to make the coded message, he turned those plates to the position, what he wanted, and after that, the replacing marks can be written with special system, what can open by the person who knows the position of those disks.

Those disks were used for hiding secret messages before mechanical Enigma-machines and computers. That is the most common guess, what the Phaistos disk could be. As you probably see, the code disk does not always contain the normal letters, and that is why the cryptologists will earn their salaries. Those code disks are sometimes coding for special markings like hieroglyphics.


When we are talking about this ancient Egyptian writing, the hieroglyphs what is used in the cryptology are not necessary same than the hieroglyphs inside the Pyramids are, and they might make only for hiding some secret messages between two persons. But the use of this Phaistos disk is probably the little bit different than normal code plates. The surface of the code plate might be made the papyrus or something else material, what was easy to destroy.


This disk is probably the mold, what is used for making other plates, or the surface of that plate was used for rubbing some carbon against the papyrus, what made the copy of the surface for some practical use, like in the letters between the kings. The normal persons should not ever be seen what the kings spoke together.  That was the reason, why those plates used for hiding the messages. Those plates were normally stored inside the temples, where the "magic" covered those communications or cryptological equipment from the superstitious people. And of course, those code plates were used special makings to cover the secrets of the kings who lived over 2000 years ago.

Use virtual "perpetual motion machines" and seawater as energy sources.

   Use virtual "perpetual motion machines"  and seawater as energy sources.  The Archimedean screw can offer almost endless energy sources.  "Robert Fludd's 1618 "water screw" perpetual motion machine from a 1660 wood engraving. It is widely credited as the first attempt to describe such a device." (Wikipedia/Perpetual motion) The term "virtual perpetual motion machine" means a machine. That pulls water to the upper tank using a capillary tube. Then that water will fall through the generator or turbine wheel. The machine uses differences in pressure levels. But it looks like a "perpetual motion machine", that is impossible because of laws of thermodynamics.  The machine uses differences in pressure levels. But it looks like a " real perpetual motion machine", which is impossible because of the laws of thermodynamics.  The real perpetual motion machines don't use outside energy. And that's why they are not possible.

Will humans survive the sun's red giant stage?

"As the Sun matures into a Red Giant, the oceans will boil and Earth will become uninhabitable." (The Conversation, The sun won’t die for 5 billion years, so why do humans have only 1 billion years left on Earth?) Sooner or later, all stars use their hydrogen. And then they turn into red giants. Sun is a yellow G spectral class star that turns into a white dwarf. But before that, the sun will turn larger.  The sun turns red and that means. It starts to send more infrared radiation. This thing will turn Earth into a hellish temperature that vaporizes water from Earth.  It's possible. That Earth will also vaporize with Venus and Mercury. Some scientists say that we have only 1 billion years to move farther in the solar system. The habitable zone will go to the distance of Jupiter and Saturn, and maybe humans find a safe place in those distant moons.  It's possible that before Sun will grow too large humans make large groups of mirror satellites or large shields that sho

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru
