IBM has created the coffee drone, what could be dangerous in wrong hands

Coffee drones are created to make life easier, but this kind of drones can be extremely dangerous because they can also be used in eavesdrop operations. In that case, the nano helicopter would hang the microphone under it. Or somebody can put the small eavesdrop machine called "bug" in that drone if that would fly from the unsecured area. Those drones can also be used in the many kinds of intelligence operations, and one of the most interesting methods is, that drone would carry the "honey-pot" or rogue WLAN-devices to near the targeted office. Those rogue stations would replace the normal WLAN support stations, and those stations would be pulled out from the wall plug.

Those drones could carry those devices unseen on the cover of the night, and then the operator must only connect those devices to the electric circuit simply putting the plug to socket, and because those operators must not carry anything, the security guards could let them go to the roofs. The problem with those WLAN-devices is that they must replace the original devices. In the most valuable method would be that the real WLAN-stations would be renamed, taken out from the electric circuit or destroyed, and the data would be routed to the faked WLAN support stations.

The normal mobile telephone can be used in that kind of action, and there is needed the programs, what would duplicate the data. The other route would allow the user to use normal Internet-services, but the other route would send to the operator's computer. And when the eavesdrop mission is over must the real WLAN stations reconnect and the honeypot routers, what is used "man in the middle" attack would just fly away with those drones.

In the worst scenarios, those drones can equip with a dynamite, grenade or FAE (Fuel Air Explosives) bomb. Those weapons can be extremely lethal. Also, the microwave weapons can be connected to that thing. Those weapons cause very powerful EMP-pulse, what can cause very bad injuries. The idea of those weapons is that the battery would be pushed by explosives, and then it would give extremely powerful microwave burst in the compassion with their size, what mission is to damage the electronics, and terminate computer centers or alarming systems.

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...

Research with hypersonic systems is not an easy thing.

"This is an artist’s depiction of a Hyper-X research vehicle under scramjet power in free-flight following separation from its booster rocket. New research into hypersonic jets may transform space travel by making scramjet engines more reliable and efficient, leading to aircraft-like spacecraft. Credit: NASA" (ScitechDaily, Revolution at Mach 10: NASA-Backed Hypersonic Jets Poised to Transform Space Travel) The main problem with hypersonic systems is how to control them on air. If the hypersonic aircraft's body is designed the wrong way, that causes thermal problems. But another problem is this: if the aircraft's shape is wrong, the pressure wave or sonic boom will go past the control surfaces. And those layers will not work in that case. In other cases, if the shockwave nuzzles against the aircraft body, that causes overheating. The next problem is the engine. The Scramjet engine is the only engine type that can use atmospheric air and create hypersonic exhaust gas....

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...
