Tornadoes, cannons, and rockets.



Fictional Columbiad cannon from the Jules Verne novel  "From the Earth to the Moon"


We all remember Gerald Bull and his "Babylon project". The thing was the super cannon which could shoot the ammunition from Iraq to Tell Aviv. The fact is that there might be possible to make the cannon that shoots ammunition even to the orbiter. So that thing which idea is to make the tornado which will remove the air from the front of the grenade or small rocket could make space launches cheaper. 

There is the possibility to make the "space elevator" other ways than making the physical constructs. The thing is that the tornado can rise through the atmosphere. And if the ammunition of the cannon will shoot to the sonic whirl there is the possibility that it can travel to the orbiter. The idea is simply the sonic whirl will make the low-pressure channel at the front of the space capsule. And that would be a good way to shoot grenades to longer distances than they would otherwise fly. 

If there is a propeller in the launch tube of rockets. For making the tornado for the air channel that saves fuel. The air channel will drop the pressure and decreases friction. Also if the artificial tornado is high enough that will pull the rocket upward. 

There are two ways to increase the speed and range of the grenade. One is to make the hole in the ammunition that removes the vacuum behind the projectile. The second way is more exotic. The idea is to shoot the ammunition through the vacuum. And that vacuum can create by using the sonic tornado. The lower pressure area in that air whirl can remove friction. And that thing makes it possible to make the projectile fly to a longer distance. 

In some ideas, underwater tornadoes can use to test the Cherenkov radiation. The particle accelerator shoots high-energy particles to the underwater tornado. And then that tornado will be closed. That causes the cross of the speed of light in water. And that thing can make it possible to test theories of hyperdrives and other kinds of things. When the channel where the particles are traveling will be closed. That causes they will send the Cherenkov radiation while they will slowing.

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...
