The US military wants to send a fusion reactor to orbiton in 5 years.

The space would be a good place for a fusion reactor. That reactor can deliver energy to the entire Earth. And the new aerial systems like plasma-jet engines need more and more energy.

The idea to use an orbital fusion reactor is interesting and it's like in some SciFi vision. The fusion reactor can make one model of energy supply possible. That model is that the systems that are operating in the field don't have an internal power source.

All energy that those systems use is delivered to them in the form of radio or maser rays. That allows connecting power supply and communication. And the orbital fusion reactor will also work as an orbital laser weapon because those high-power lasers can also use as weapons against hostile targets.

The orbital fusion reactor can use vaporized lithium-deuteride as fuel. The lasers or microwaves will melt the lithium deuteride. In orbital trajectory is no oxygen that can detonate the lithium hydride that is used as the fuel.

And then, the system drives vaporized fuel to the accelerator. In that accelerator, magnetic fields and laser rays will start the fusion. The problem with lithium-deuteride and its use in fusion reactors is that this material is high inflammable. If there is any oxygen in the melting process that causes detonation. But there is no air at orbital. So there melting of the lithium can happen without the risk of oxygen contact.

There are two ways to make the orbital fusion. The first one is to use internal fusion in the chamber. In that system, fusion will happen around the laser element. And that laser will send energy to the wanted point.

And the second one is to use two crossing ion beams. Al laser ray will aim to the point where those beams with different polar ions will cross and that allows making the artificial sun in the orbiter.

The orbital fusion reactor is not the only way to make powerful energy rays. There is the possibility that positrons or anti-electrons can be produced from the electrons of the solar wind. Then those positrons will put to react with electrons around the laser element. And that thing can use to make powerful energy sources.

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,
