Electric powered aircraft is one of the excellent innovations in the aviation.

Electric powered aircraft are silent and capable to make the "flying cars", what actually means low prize and sophisticated aerial vehicles possible, and it might have also many other useful possibilities. The electric motors must be powerful, and that limits the operational time. But if the vehicle would be hybrid, this might make it capable to operate in the city area, without disturbing people. In this case, the electric engines are used in lift-off and landings, but when batteries are turning low, the system would start the combustion engine. Of course, the batteries can charge from any socket, what is found, but combustion engines allow to load batteries while the system is airborne.


This allows to flight in the longer periods than pure electric engines allow. There is one possibility to make the clean electric engine aircraft what is lightweight and silent. The fuel cells can be used for creating the electric power to those systems, and if they would use hydrogen as the fuel, there would not be pollution. The term "flying car" means actually the low-prize VTOL-capable (Vertical Take-Off and Landing) aerial vehicles, what can also use as a car, that means that they can be driven on highways. Some of those flying cars are looking like cars, but some of the shapes are more aircraft looking.


Those vehicles are tested by many car and aircraft factories, and the military and civil operators have planned them the great role for many purposes. The techniques that are used to produce them can also apply to the normal aircraft. And in many cases, those flying cars are actually very fast in comparison with the normal helicopter, because they are using blower technology, what makes them very fast. That solution, where the engines and propels are putting inside the tube, makes this solution silent and allows the high rotating speed of propels.

The new 3D printers are coin-size systems.

"The tiny device could enable a user to rapidly create customized, low-cost objects on the go, like a fastener to repair a wobbly bicycle wheel or a component for a critical medical operation. Credit: Sampson Wilcox, RLE" (Scitech, Tiny Titan: MIT’s Revolutionary Coin-Sized 3D Printer Fits in Your Pocket) Researchers created a 3D printer that is coin-size. That kind of printer can create things like microchips. But it's possible. Those tiny 3D printers can also work in extremely large-size projects. In simplest models, the 3D printers are positioned on tracks. The 3D printer itself is the tool, that can be part of the modular production systems.  There are visions of high-temperature metal printers installed on the gantry cranes. That makes those crane printers that can make even ship-size things. The crane that the printer controls can move back and forth and the printer can move horizontally. This kind of thing can turn the crane into a high-temperature 3D printer, that...

Quantum computers and ultra-fast photonic microchips can danger even the most secure communication.

"Quantum computers could pose a major security risk to current communication systems in 12-15 years with their exponentially greater speed and code-breaking ability. (ScitechDaily, Today’s Most-Secure Communications Threatened by Future Quantum Computers) Quantum computers can break entire binary cryptography. And that makes all communication unsecured. That is one of the greatest threats in quantum computing. And this brings the arms race to the quantum age. The quantum computer can create codes that any binary computer can break. But the quantum computer can also break old-fashioned codes. And that makes it an ultimate weapon and sabotage tool.   Quantum computers can change the measurements of the ammunition in factories by changing the system calibration. Or it can delete databases from the opponent's computer systems. This thing can delete all SIM cards from mobile telephones. In peacetime, the hackers that operate using quantum systems can steal the names of the counter-...

Electric power innovations. Fuel cells in aircraft and solar panels over Arizona canal.

  "ZEROe teams powered on the iron pod, the future hydrogen-propulsion system designed for Airbus’ electric concept aircraft." (Intersting Engineering, Airbus's ZEROe: First engine fuel cell powers up for hydrogen flight) Electric power innovations. Fuel cells in aircraft and solar panels over Arizona canal.  Airbus Zero is a testbed for fuel cells that are used in commercial aircraft. The problem with aircraft is always noise and pollution. If the aircraft uses electric engines. That decreases noise levels and cleans the air, especially around airfields. Lightweight solar panels that can be installed on the wings and body of aircraft can give electricity to electric engines. And they can extend an aircraft's operational range.   The thing that makes this kind of system interesting is that the "flying cars" or cheap VTOL aircraft can use them as a power source. The hydrogen power cells can give energy to electric aircraft at night time. And that makes them m...
