Flying wings are coming.

Chinese H-20 and the USAF B-21 stealth bombers are both flying wings. The flying wing design makes those aircraft more economical. And they can carry more payload. Also, the economical flight makes them fly longer time before refueling. And along with stealth technology that makes those bombers very capable for global operations.

The thing is that those aircraft can be very fast because they are aerodynamically very capable. Their shape is smooth. And the curves are soft. That allows the radio waves from the radars to slide over their body without causing an echo. The same way that shape makes air molecules travel over the bodies of those aircraft.

There is the possibility that the magnetic field around those aircraft is boosting the stealth capacity of those super bombers. The magnetic stealth system acts as the Earth's magnetic field and pushes the radio waves away from the aircraft. The idea is that the radio waves pass that object without reflection. And that makes those aircraft invisible to radars.

The speed of stealth bombers is limited because the super- or even hypersonic flight causes sonic booms. The air cone of the supersonic flight makes those aircraft easier to detect. So the optimal speed of the stealth bomber is about Mach 0,9 or high subsonic. But there is the possibility that those aircraft have AI-based systems that limit the speed subsonic when those aircraft operate in stealth mode.

There is the possibility that when stealth bombers are moving to operational areas they use afterburners or even ramjet or scramjet engines. Then the pilot just turns one button to "stealth" mode and then the system limits the speed of the stealth bomber that it flies at subsonic speed. There are only a few details published about those highly classified bombers.

In the future, stealth bombers can jump out of the atmosphere and make so-called ballistic jumps. That allows them to move fast to operational areas. And there, those bombers can turn to use stealth mode while they are searching for enemies from that area.

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,
