The solar sail technology is multi-use.




The same technology is used to make kilometer-size solar sail can use also for making large-size solar panels that can send to the orbiter. And similar mylar layers can use to make large-size radar and electronic surveillance antennas that are orbiting the earth. 

And the large-size mylar structures can also use for making the large radio telescopes that can send away from Kuiper Belt. Electricity to those systems can deliver by using lasers. And the core of those large sails can cover by using silicon atoms. 

Researchers have created an idea to send large solar sails to Alpha Centauri by using powerful laser systems. In that project, the idea is to use extremely powerful lasers for accelerating the solar sail to journey to the Alpha Centauri system. 

The same technology is used to make kilometer-size solar sail can use also for making large-size solar panels that can send to the orbiter. And similar mylar layers can use to make large-size radar and electronic surveillance antennas that are orbiting the earth. 

The light- or solar sail technology can take probes to Mars and farther at a cheap price. The solar sail is a large sail that is made by using mylar or some other strong material. The idea of a solar sail is that the solar wind is blowing that thing away from the sun. And in some visions, solar sails would give more energy from lasers that are accelerating that thing away from the solar system. The idea is that the solar sail can use the large mylar sail structure as a communication antenna. 

And if a large-size mylar layer is covered with silicon atoms. That system can use to make large-scale solar panels. And maybe the power satellites are true sooner than we think. 

The thrust of solar sail can increase by covering the mylar layer with a thin layer of iced gas. When lasers hit that gas it vaporizes and then it increases its thrust. The solar sail is an interesting system because the same concepts can use for sending large-size structures to space. 

The same technology is used in solar sails. Can use in large-scale radio telescopes and radar antennas. Those large-size antennas can monitor astronomical radio objects. Or they can use in very high powerful and accurate radars and signal intelligence systems. 

An extremely thin mylar layer can cover by a one- or two atoms-thin metal layer. And that system makes this type of structure suitable to use in large orbiting radars and electronic surveillance systems.

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...
