The Artemis mission will delay. And the next astronauts are traveling to Moon no earlier than 2025.

Those human-looking robots are created for risky missions in dangerous places like in the depth of oceans or nuclear accidents. 

Or that kind of robot can also operate at the orbiter during solar storms. Those robots can also fix secretive satellites because the information that is shared can be limited. Those robots can control by using the VR suits that are recording the movements and send them to the robot system. 

The Artemis mission. Or otherwise said, sending astronauts to the Moon was delayed by NASA. The samples from the Moon can take to Earth by using robots.  And that thing means that the Artemis is not necessary. The robots can easily remote control from Earth if they are operating on the Earth side. 

And the highly advanced artificial intelligence allows the robots can operate on the other side of the Moon. The robot can avoid things like craters and drive to the other side of the Moon independently. Then they can follow their tracks back to the dayside and then send the data to the Earth. Otherwise, the data can deliver at the first to the lunar orbiting satellite. 

And then that satellite can send it to the Earth. That satellite can use lasers and radars. for searching the most interesting things for robots that are operating at the surface of the Moon. There might be many different looking and different sizes of robots. Maybe some of those robots look like space-suited astronauts. 

The idea is that those robots can use hybrid sensors like lasers with TV cameras, spectrometers, and radars. To search for things that they must avoid. And also the same systems can take the samples from the surface. Those systems might have the description of the things that are the most interesting from the point of view of science.

That kind of mission would be similar to the Soviet Luna-16 missions. In those missions, the robot probes send the samples from the  Moon to Earth. But samples are collected from the larger areas. And those systems can simulate the situation where the samples will take from Mars. The Moon would be the perfect place for remote-control laboratories that can handle the Mars samples without polluting them with organic material.

The problem with manned missions is that they are always a little bit dangerous. When millions of people are staring at the TV.  That thing increases pressure. Everything in the mission must go perfectly. And the worst thing that can happen is to lose the crew in front of millions of people. 

One of the reasons, why NASA decided to send astronauts to the Moon in the 1960s. Is that the unmanned technology was not advanced enough. Words that President Kennedy said after the Yuri Gagarin flight: "before the year 1970 astronauts will walk on the Moon". Have something to do with that thing. But the thing is that advancing robot technology is saving lives in space. 

Advanced and complex artificial intelligence is making it possible to use robots in many complicated missions. And maybe the human-looking robots would operate at the surface of the icy moons like Europa quite soon. The mission to those icy moons will take years. And who will go for spending long part of the life for that mission? If that mission is a delegate to robots that thing would easier to handle. And no human lives will be at risk during that mission. 

And NASA does not want to lose any astronaut in their mission. and that's why the robots are doing the "dirty work". When we are thinking about the technical level of the Apollo program. That NASA would delay that program as too risky. Risking the lives of humans is not a very good idea. And that means the risky and complicated missions would delegate to robots.

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...
