What is so special with Russian relationship with nuclear weapons?

We always read stories about Russian new nuclear weapons, and of course, we must notice, that Russian military forces have the very strong relationship with those weapons. Nuclear weapons give attention to every nation, what have those weapons, and they are the good shield for every state. And at the same time, we might wonder, why Russian government doesn't even try to introduce a single defensive nuclear weapon?


Of course we can say, that offensive attack against enemy military forces is the best defense, but then we must consider, that attacking against other nations is always against international law, and making that with high power nuclear weapons causes very much suffering and pain in targeted states, where millions of people would die in those attacks. But why Russia always develops that kind of weapons, what uses megaton size nuclear warheads?



One of the reasons for that is sometimes mentioned, that Russian conventional strike capacity is not so good that NATO has. There are own problems with making GPS-guided bombs and missiles, what allows airplanes to close the target in free angle, and that satellite-guided ammunition is "fire and forgets"-type munitions. Same way some of the equipment of Russian military are very old, and there might be problems in their tolerance. I mean that any nuclear reactor is not outlasted forever.


But there could be more problems in the military technology, what is not mentioned. The Russian military has problems to get computer programs and electronic components, what is needed for high-tech military systems like drones. And the attitudes of the old fashion generals and admirals makes problematic to make new kind of intelligent military technology in the hands of the Russian military. Those generals believe the power of tanks and artillery, with massive firepower. The result of that is seen in Syria, where Russian bombardment destroyed over 80% of infrastructure. That bombardment was effective against the infrastructure of targeted cities, but the destruction was very massive. And the use of firepower was similar as in Grozny, where the use of massive firepower caused more damages than any terrorist organization could ever make.


This is the problem with the Russian military. When they would destroy entire cities, they would not able to take DNA and other samples from ruins, what would help to track terrorists, and maybe some members of terrorist organizations could slip off those areas claiming that they were dead. But this is only thinking about problems about using massive firepower in the urban area. And maybe some Nazis could slip off the Berlin because they were claimed that they were dead.


Maybe some of them would ever found because their bodies were exploded in pieces in the bombardment of Red Army artillery.  The main problem of the Russian military is the very huge size of that country, and this has maybe caused that many wars have been canceled for that reason. In Russia is about 146 million people, that means there is very small population if that is compiling with the size of that country. And that nation has many neighbors, what of course wants to take part of Russian natural wealthiness like oil and metals. This means that if the Russian military would go in the full-scale operations in Europe, some other country could seize this hypothetical situation and attack against Russia, would that state need nuclear weapons for protecting itself.


The Russian military has the problem, that if some man fights in the European area, that same man cannot protect Russian borders in the Far East. And that is, of course, the very good break for military operations in European territory. And we must know that Russia is the nation with nuclear weapons, and we must live with that thing. There is also very much natural resources like gas, what Russia wants to sell to the West, and that makes the relationship with that nation very complicated, and many political leaders wants to forget the situation in Ukraine, because that makes problematic to buy gas from Russia, and if the Russian gas would be used in European power plants, gives that  possibility for Russia to blackmail European countries, by cutting gas deliveries, if some nations policy doesn't please Russian leaders. This means that if some leaders of European Union talks against Russia, would the pressure in the gas tube decreased, and that would be the good method for controlling the economy in another country by using the non-violent method.


The reason for decreasing gas-pressure could be explained as the service of the gas tube. And that would be one method to give pressure for European countries to understand that Russia is the superpower and other nations should understand that. And nuclear weapons are very big status in International politics and good shield against military aggression against that nation. They would raise the tolerance limit for Russian actions extreme high, and for the same reason, many other nations have to get those weapons because they are giving better position in the international field of diplomatic talking.

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...
