"White knight" launch vehicle and its modification to the nuclear power aircraft could revolutionize many things in aviation. New forms of nuclear-powered aircraft would be already in production. Those things are unseen, and the technology, what is used is actually basing the RTG (Radio Thermal Generator), what is the so-called nuclear battery, what has given power to the spacecraft like Voyager-probes and other deep space exploration vehicles. Those nuclear-powered drones could be quite similar, with  Rutan's "White Knight" launch vehicle, what have been operated with X-37B.


This unmanned space launch system can be easy to modify the nuclear-powered vehicle, by installing the RTG:s and electric motors with propels to that vehicle. Those vehicles could fly extremely high altitude, and they can also carry cruise missiles under their fuselage. Those high flying unmanned platforms can operate even years in the atmosphere, and they can also be armed with nuclear warheads. Those systems can also operate with ASAT (Anti Satellite) missions, and they can carry anti-satellite missiles, and they are very hard to find and destroy.


Those small size motherships can also be used in other kinds of military purposes like shooting normal combat missiles like Harpoons and SLAM (Stand-Off Land Attack Missile) missiles. They are of course very easy to destroy if they can be located first, but the flight altitude of those systems can be over 20 kilometers. The record of electric motor powered aircraft is about 30 kilometers, and it was made by solar-powered  Helios aircraft. And there are rumors that also "Predator" drones are transformed to use RTG:s. Those motor systems can be only the RTG:s, where is connected the electric motors and those killer drones operate in the global area and strike without warning. The nuclear-powered aircraft are not addicted to sunlight.


There are study plans for creating the electric engine aircraft what bases the Helios, that uses the capillary tube to rotate the generators, what gives electric power to motors. But the aircraft is still in the drawing stage. The benefit of electric engined aircraft is, that those vehicles leave the very low infrared signature, and they can be produced by using STEALTH-technology, and that's why they are actually quite hard to find.

Schrödinger's cat: and the limits of that idea.

"In quantum mechanics, Schrödinger's cat is a thought experiment concerning quantum superposition". (Wikipedia, Schrödinger's cat). But the same thing can use as model for many other thought experiments.  Sooner or later, or at least in the ultimate end of the universe, the Schrödinger's cat will turn into wave movement. The information that this cat involved exists but the cat does not exist in its material form. The information doesn't ever vanish. It just turns its shape.  We are all trapped in the universe and time. The universe is the space that is entirety to us. There are no confirmed other universities. But the multiverse is a logical continuum for the expanding galactic megastructures.  The problem with natural things is this. They are black and white. They exist or do not exist. Could there be something, that exists and not exists at the same time?  Scrödinger's cat is thinking experiment about case their cat is not dead or not alive. But in this...

The string theory offers a new way to calculate Pi.

"Scientists discovered a new series for pi through string theory research, echoing a 15th-century formula by Madhava. By combining Euler-Beta Functions and Feynman Diagrams, they modeled particle interactions efficiently. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Leap in Mathematics) People normally think that. The pi is the ratio of the circumference circle's circumference to the circle's diameter. The Pi is a mathematical constant 3.14159..., the endless decimal number. The Pi is interesting because developers can use that decimal number to make the encryption algorithms stronger.  The idea is that the encryptions program hides the message's original ASCII numbers by multiplicating those numbers with some decimal number. Or the system can add some numbers to those ASCII numbers.  "Aninda Sinha (left) and Arnab Saha (right). Credit: Manu Y" (ScitechDaily, String Theory Unravels New Pi Formula: A Quantum Le...

There are always more than three actors in the real world.

"An international research team is advancing precision timekeeping by developing a nuclear clock using thorium isotopes and innovative laser methods, potentially transforming our understanding of physical constants and dark matter. (Artist’s concept.) Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Unveiling the Thorium Nuclear Clock and Its Time-Twisting Secrets) From Three-body problem... There are no pure three-body systems in nature. There are always more than three components in the system. For making real three-body systems we must separate those three bodies from the environment. Otherwise, there are stable effects. But nobody can predict some effects like distant supernova explosions or sun eruptions.  And one of those things that affect all bodies is time. When radioactive materials decay. That affects the stability and symmetry of the object.  Energy levels affect the existence of things like neutrons. The thorium atom clocks are next-generation tools for time measurement....
