The Airbus Zephyr-drone challenges satellites.

The Zephyr drone is created for the HARPS (High-Altitude Pseudo-Satellite) or atmospheric satellite program. The solar-power drone flies even for months or years in high altitudes. The Zephyr drone can rise to an altitude of 23 kilometers, and it can operate on scientific and military missions.

HARPS means that high-altitude drones will replace some satellites. Those drones can carry things like radars, communication tools and infrared, and regular CCD cameras. And those drones can also carry small-size orbital vehicles to the high atmosphere before they will be launched.

The thing that makes the high-flying large-size solar-power drones interesting is that they can rise things like Pegasus-rocket to high altitudes before those rockets will launch. Of course, Pegasus can rise to high altitude by using a balloon.

Things like peace-time border and sea surveillance can be done using this kind of platform. The high-flying drone can use radars infrared and other kinds of systems that allows the drone to map areas.

But the fact is that the solar-power-high flying drone can also use to offer mission-critical communication. But the fact is that the high-flying drone that uses solar power and stealth materials can be quite a hard target for air defense. That system can point targets for other weapon systems.

And in some visions, those drones can arm by using some kind of directed energy weapons that protects them against incoming missiles.

The thing is that the northern areas are causing problems with solar-power drones. But energy can deliver to those drones from power stations or ships by using the maser-rays or high-power radio waves. The fact is that things like photonic crystals are making solar panels more effective.

And photonic crystals can use to deliver electricity to solar panels. Also, there is an introduced idea that laser rays can deliver electricity to the solar panels of high-flying drones.

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,
