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.

What the channel thru the bullet can make? (Microwave bullets)

Kimmo Huosionmaa

When we are talking about the bullets, what is equipped with the channel, what goes thru it, we can say that this kind of ammunition is a nasty surprise for everybody, who doesn't expect them. The channel makes the air resistance very small, and that would cause that the bullet would fly long distance compared to the normal bullets.

The thing, what makes possible to use that kind of ammunition is small plate behind that bullet, and the powder exhaust gasses are pulling against it. When the bullet flies out of the barrel, that plate would be dropped off, and then the bullet would start to fly, and the air goes thru that hole, what makes the long flight to that bullet, what have smaller air resistance, than other bullets.

But this ammunition can be forbidden if it would change the shape. The channel what goes thru the bullet would be possible to install there a small nano technical generator, what would be able to make the normal bullet to send the microwaves to the target. In that case, the small generator would be connected to the small microwave transmitter, what will also damage or disturb the electronic components, before it will hit the target.

Microwave ammunition would give very interesting roles to the firearms. Another way to make that kind of bullets is using quartz crystals, what would be pressured with the explosives. That would give the normal rifle the capacity to disturb drones and other electronic components. In this case, the microwave system, what uses the small size of microwave transmitters would be launched at the same ammunition with the normal bullet.

Then bullet would fly thru the gun pipe, would the microwave send at the same time to the same target, that would disturb the electronic equipment like smart scopes and also the enemy sniper would feel pain, that makes the sharpshooting impossible. That kind of bullets are in use with special mission units, and they are classified as effective equipment. Or that kind of special effect ammunition development is continuing.
