Was "Project Daedalus" actually the plan for interstellar spacecraft or something else?


Kimmo Huosionmaa

The thoughts about "Project Daedalus" are that spacecraft, what would have the capacity for interstellar spacecraft would be very futuristic. The idea of that spacecraft would send the fusion powered probe to the nearest star system, but the technology, what would use in this project was so futuristic, that it is not even today existed. The idea was to build "Daedalus" in the orbiter of planet Jupiter, and the motor would use the helium, what is sucked from the atmosphere of the gas giant as the fuel. The helium would be injected into the motor, and the nuclear-powered laser system would make the fusion in the motor. There are many other fictional spacecraft that "Daedalus", what were most conventional visions of interstellar probes.

This system is more conventional than some plans to use interstellar ramjets for traveling the stars. Interstellar ramjets suck the ionized hydrogen through the spacecraft by using a magnetic field, but the ignition of fusion is made in the same way with theoretical "Daedalus". Fictional "Daedalus" takes the fuel to the tanks, and this makes this fictional spacecraft less sophisticated and more limited than interstellar ramjets. The thing is, that this kind of projects normally belongs to the science fiction category, and then I started to think something, what is so terrible and at the same time so fascinating thing, that nobody ever thought about this. Maybe "Project Daedalus" is actually meant for the "dream ship", the electromagnetic cannon, what has the capacity to create the electromagnetic shield at the atmosphere.

In this scenario, the ball-shaped things, what are connected to Daedalus, are actually the fuel-cells, what would pump the electric power to the electromagnetic cannon, what can terminate many targets, what has electronic equipment. In this case, the structure would use to give long-term electromagnetic radiation to the target area, what can be very large. But those electromagnetic weapons have one ability, what is ever spoken, and this makes them absolutely terrifying things. By using them the operator can take the enemy army under control or cause the psychosis and other mental disorders for targeted persons. Those weapons can put the person in the "dream world", where the target doesn't even know, what is true and what is false.

Those weapons can cause synthetic dreams in the human mind, by inducing the electricity to the nerve system, and that kind of weapons can be more dangerous than any normal EMP-weapons, what can be used against the drones and other equipment. If Daedalus is only the covert project for that kind of weapon project, that would be a very dangerous but effective tool in the hands of the military.  Those EMP-satellites could knock out any military satellite or radar and computer installation on Earth.

    The AI-based PCs will replace current PCs quite soon. A Lenovo director says.   Lenovo plans to replace current PCs by using new AI-based systems. The AI-based PC is the tool that makes computing more powerful, more effective, and safer than ever before. The Kernel-based AI that guards computers and identifies the users are tools that are required at this time of modern computing. The problem with this type of advantage is that if those AI-based system's servers are in China, makes the PC an ultimate control tool. Another thing is that the host who controls servers can use data collected from the users to create military AI applications. Computer games help to create AI that can respond to all types of actions. And AI also can create things like hypersonic lifting bodies and command systems for military tools. Also, AI can create new types of dual-use systems that control drone swarms in marketing situations for making dragon images in the skies. But the same systems can contro

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-

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
