There could be at least one supervolcano that location is unknown.


"A supervolcano is a volcano that has produced an eruption with a Volcanic Explosivity Index of 8, the highest recorded number on the index". (ScitechDaily.com/Volcanic Super-Eruptions Are Millions of Years in the Making)

Theoretically, controlling volcanoes is very easy. Decreasing the pressure in the magma chamber is enough. And if researchers can decrease the magma's temperature. They can also decrease the pressure in a magma chamber. Researchers can decrease that temperature by pumping extremely cold gas like liquid nitrogen or liquid helium into that magma chamber. 

Sometimes is introduced a way to deny the volcano eruptions is by using laser drills. The laser drill makes multiple holes in the roof of the volcano's magma chamber. Then liquid nitrogen or Bose-Einstein condensate will pump to the magma chamber. That decreases the temperature and pressure in that magma chamber. 

Supervolcanoes like Yellowstone and Toba are the most fascinating and frightening that we can wonder about. There is a certain cycle between the activity of the volcanoes. The reason for that is that the pressure in the magma chamber must rise high enough that the volcano can erupt. 

The volcanoes that erupt often are quite safe. Their eruptions are not very strong because the eruption channel is open and pressure will not rise in the magma chamber. 

And the longer the cycle of the volcano, the stronger its eruption. In the longer period break between eruptions, pressure in the magma chamber will rise higher. Supervolcanoes have the longest periods between eruptions. And that means they can sleep even millions of years.

Supervolcano eruptions can take thousands or even tens of thousands of years of making enough pressure that it can erupt. In some of the biggest possible supervolcanoes cycle, eruptions can be even millions of years. And that extremely long cycle makes those supervolcanoes even more dangerous than we expected. 

There could be at least one supervolcano that is invisible on Earth. In normal cases, volcanism is visible in infrared images. But there is the possibility that two magma chambers are overlapping. In that case, the upper chamber would belong to the regular volcano. But there could be another larger magma chamber below the smaller volcano. 

And if something happens and the upper magma chamber will empty. The weight that locks magma in the lower chamber will be released in that case. That can cause the situation that the magma of the lower magma chamber will break its roof. And the volcano that is over the magma chamber can just fall in it. 

If that thing happens at the sea that thing causes a horrifying tsunami. There is introduced to control or deny the supervolcano eruptions by drilling holes in the roof of the magma chamber. 

Engineers can make those holes by using a laser drill. And then the liquid nitrogen or Bose-Einstein condensate can be injected into the magma chamber. That thing can decrease the temperature of the magma. As I wrote at the beginning of this text.

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,
