The GPS era will and the future navigation system is the NTS-3.



Like GSM telephones, satellite-based navigation is advancing. The GPS is vulnerable, and there is needed more multi-use systems. Those new navigation systems' requirement is being less vulnerable to EW systems. The other thing is that those systems must use the same time as the data transmitting system and communication tool. The NTS-3 (Navigation Technology Satellite 3) system consists the satellites and receiving systems that can be the size of a mobile telephone. 

Maybe the new NTS-3 satellite will have those abilities. The NTS-3 will use different broadbands than the GPS. And that means the GPS could remain a civilian tool. When the military and civilian systems are separated that denies the opponents ability to get those systems in their hands and jam the military systems. 

The NTS-3 might have some kind of stealth ability. That means it's hard to detect by using regular radars. And the way to harm that system is to find it by using the data transmission of that satellite. Of course, ASAT missiles and other weapons can have the ability to track the targets by using similar technology that the ARM (Anti-Radiation missiles) use. But that requires that attacking system knows the frequencies that the satellite uses in its data transmission. 

That means the new navigation systems have two main segments. Civilian and military. But of course, there are thousands of sub-segments like law enforcement, professional truckers, medical service, and military allies, close allies, and then the segments that are reserved only for things like nuclear weapon security are separated. 

Also, the ground controllers might have a better ability to shut down certain navigation segments to deny a hostile use than GPS operators have. The controllers can also locate and close the individual devices and adjust the system's accuracy in some areas. 

The NTS-3 satellite would give huge advances, signal stability, and many other things. And one of them could be integrated data transmit ability. Also, a new type of encryption and transmission handling AI-based tools can make this new system more secure than the old GPS. 

When we are thinking about the global satellite base positioning there is the possibility to use laser-based optical systems. Those systems can base the idea that the users of that systems point the laser light to the reconnaissance satellite. Then that satellite will transmit the image back to the user, and the user can see its position in the satellite image. This kind of system can integrate with the new U.S anti-hypersonic missile warning satellite systems. 

If those satellites can cover the entire Earth with their cameras. That laser-based system can offer a great option for radio-based communication and location. This laser system must be above the clouds and that means it could be effective only in aircraft.

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....
