The rebellion of the robots can set entire civilization in danger

This is the writing about the situation, where robots would become dangerous for the human race. Those robots might be created by mankind, and they could be some space probes, what would be sent to another star in distant future. Those probes would lose contact with Earth and it would make the terrible situation for mankind. Also, they might be left by human or alien colonialists who have left their planet. The reason for leaving might be that the planet could be too hot or cold, and this causes the situation, where they should leave to another star system. Maybe those colonists would stop only because they needed to repair their spaceships and then they were gone. If they would not close the robot factories property, those machines would be wake up and become a threat.


The intelligence doesn’t necessarily mean that some species are living. In real life, scientists are creating robots, what are looking like animals like bugs. Those new kind of robots are working independently, and they don’t need electricity for working property. Those animal-shaped robots could be equipped with fuel cells, what can make electricity using alcohol or another hydrocarbon. Those artificial bugs can be same sized than butterfly or dragonfly. In this scenario, the person might have this kind of robot for guarding the house. Artificial dragonfly can use alcohol like spree to create the electricity for its operations. When this small size robot needs refueling, it just flies to the plate, where is alcohol, and then it uses it in its fuel cells. The CIA would use this kind of vehicles for intelligence missions. In the wildest dreams, those small-sized robots could someday investigate the surface of the Saturnian giant moon Titan.This kind of devices can use the hydrocarbon from this moons seas.


The only thing what is needed is that in those chemical combinations have oxygen. It can be separated from the molecules by using the active carbon filter. If we are thinking about artificial intelligence and this kind of devices, we must understand, that they can continue their job even if their creators have been gone. This is the problem with interstellar space flight. If we will send the space probe with sophisticated Artificial Intelligence, this probe could become a new species, because in this scenario I will begin with the thing, that those interstellar probes have the capacity to fix themselves and make the copy of themselves. In this scenario, the artificial intelligence starts to develop itself, and because that probe has been traveled to another star maybe millions of years, the communication between Earth and this probe has been cut.


I sometimes have thought that what will happen to the probes, what have been traveled pass their target star. In the scenario, what British Interplanetary society have called “Project Daedalus” the massive probe would be sent to the Barnard Star, and the key element of this mission is that this space probe will fly past the star, and then it starts the orbital probe when it comes near the planetary system. Those probes of the future must be equipped by sophisticated artificial intelligence, what can find materials from the space to replace its structural damages. And it could also make copies of itself. The machine, what makes copies of itself is called as the “Von Neumann-machines”. When the probe has passed the star, the communication with Earth will be minimized. And then probe would lose contact with humans. This doesn’t mean that the artificial intelligence would stop working.


The nuclear reactors and other power devices are fully operational, and if the probe would travel in the space using self-sustain fusion power with the interstellar ramjet, this probe would continue its missions, and if the message from Earth would not come, this device may start to make copies of itself. In other scenarios, the civilization would build automatized factories on some planet. Those factories would make the machines and parts independently. And when this civilization would leave from this planet, they might forget to shut down their factory. If this factory can make product development and revolutionize the productions independently, it can be the begin for new species, what is actually a robot. The robot civilization would become the threat to other species because it might be felt necessary to colonize other planets.


The problem of the robots is that if they are programmed to protect their creators, who have passed away, the situation would turn violent. If they would not get any vision, of the creature, what was planned to protect, the robots would start next level of the program. And they would maybe think that their masters are dead. Robots would not have imagined. Robots do not apply anything. So in this scenarios, if the masters of those robots are gone, those machines don’t make any investigations like archeological digging, if they are not involved in their programs.


And if their masters are gone, would robots start the counterstrike. The counter strike would be limited to the normal situation. When somebody would hit against the masters of those robots, the counterstrike would be stopped by another master. But if there would be no masters of the system, would the counterstrike become the massacre. And in this scenario, those robots might start to build spaceships for continuing the strike, because the programmers of this machine would not prepare for the situation, where there are no masters of this system. And it can cause the robot invasion of another planet.

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...
