The next generation airships can be used in many missions, and the most fascinating of them is to investigate the planet Venus and also gas planets like Jupiter and other gas planets can be surveyed from airships. The modern airships are made by using mylar material, and they are capable to fly extreme high altitude. Mylar is so tight and hard material, that even the sports stadion size gas bell can get to the pocket if that would be made of this plastic, what was used in the ECHO-communication satellites, what were actually balloons, which were blown for their shapes in the orbital trajectory, and they were 41 meters diameter balloon satellites.


Some persons thought that those satellites can be used as the balloons, by filling them with hydrogen or helium and send the balloon to the trip around the world like in some books of Jules Verne. That would need of course space capsule-type crew room because the altitude of the flying would be very high. But in the outer atmosphere, the winds are stable and they could make that trip possible. And the same technology can be used in other planet's atmospheres.


Use of this material at the balloon type ECHO-satellites means that those airships can fly at the outer layers of the atmosphere, and fly even to space if they are equipped with right propulsion systems like ion- or magneto-dynamic drives. The usage scale of those things is very large. Airships can support the communication, and at the same times, those systems can be used to patrol the large areas. The big size airships can also be used as the flying surgery rooms, and also they can be used in the forest working sites because they can be used for the cranes, but also airships can carry machines and other parts in the middle of the jungle.

Airships can also patrol on the sea areas very long time, and locate the submarines with their infra-red and other sensor systems, and they can use solar panels for creating electric power. But in the polar areas, they might use capillary turbogenerators for increasing the flight time and give power to their batteries. The problem of those airships is that the hydrogen would be exploded if there is any oxygen in the hydrogen tank. The filling of the airships starts that the gas-bell would put in the tank, and all air would be removed there. Then the tank is filled with pure hydrogen, and because there is no oxygen, the system would not be exploded easily. Even if those airships fly in very high altitude, they might be also very small, and those rugby-ball size airships can collect data from high atmosphere.

They can also be used for normal and electronic surveillance missions, where the opponent's new airplanes would be surveillance during test flights. That means the miniature airship would be stationed near the opponent's main test flight base.  And then it can photograph the aircraft during tests. the opponent would have problems to locate those small size robot airships from the altitudes of 30 kilometers. Those airships might have also laser microphones, that they can eavesdrop on the opponent's talkings.


They can also carry small size helicopters, what can be dropped to that area, and if we would think that thing as the "Matushka" type vehicle, that small helicopter can carry the nano bug, what can collect the information inside the opponent's buildings. And those nano bugs can also be used for assassination missions if the situation would change. Those nano bugs can inject deadly chemicals in the bodies of targeted persons, and they can also deliver anti-oil and sulfur-eating microbes to oil tanks and ammunition warehouses. Those microbes are making diesel-oil the lister, and the sulfur at the gunpowder can be removed by the microbes, what is normally used in the oil and other chemical accidents.

The LK-99 could be a fundamental advance even if it cannot reach superconductivity in 400K.

The next step in superconducting research is that LK-99 was not superconducting at room temperature. Or was it? The thing is that there is needed more research about that material. And even if it couldn't reach superconductivity in 400K that doesn't mean that material is not fundamental. And if LK-99 can maintain its superconductivity in 400K that means a fundamental breakthrough in superconducting technology.  The LK-99 can be hype or it can be the real thing. The thing is, anyway, that high-voltage cables and our electric networks are not turning superconducting before next summer. But if we can change the electric network to superconducting by using some reasonable material. That thing can be the next step in the environment. Superconductors decrease the need to produce electricity. But today cooling systems that need lots of energy are the thing that turn superconductors that need low temperatures non-practical for everyday use.  When the project begins there is lots of ent

Black holes, the speed of light, and gravitational background are things that are connecting the universe.

 Black holes, the speed of light, and gravitational background are things that are connecting the universe.  Black holes and gravitational waves: is black hole's singularity at so high energy level that energy travels in one direction in the form of a gravitational wave.  We normally say that black holes do not send radiation. And we are wrong. Black holes send gravitational waves. Gravitational waves are wave movement or radiation. And that means the black holes are bright gravitational objects.  If we can use water to illustrate the gravitational interaction we can say that gravitational waves push the surface tension out from the gravitational center. Then the other quantum fields push particles or objects into a black hole. The gravitational waves push energy out from the objects. And then the energy or quantum fields behind that object push them into the gravitational center.  The elementary particles are quantum fields or whisk-looking structures. If the gravitational wave is

The CEO of Open AI, Sam Altman said that AI development requires a similar organization as IAEA.

We know that there are many risks in AI development. And there must be something that puts people realize that these kinds of things are not jokes. The problem is how to take control of the AI development. If we think about international contracts regarding AI development. We must realize that there is a possibility that the contract that should limit AI development turns into another version of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. That treaty didn't ever deny the escalation of nuclear weapons. And there is a big possibility that the AI-limitation contracts follow the route of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.  The biggest problem with AI development is the new platforms that can run every complicated and effective code. That means the quantum computer-based neural networks can turn themselves more intelligent than humans. The AI has the ultimate ability to learn new things. And if it runs on the quantum-hybrid system that switches its state between binary and quantum states,
