How to clean orbital trajectory from space debris?


"Aurora Propulsion Technologies makes electric micro-tether-based Plasma Brakes. The Plasma Brake induces an electric field around itself to cause a drag from the ambient plasma in low Earth orbit. This drag can be used to slow down and deorbit a satellite at the end of its useful life." (https://business.esa.int/news/finnish-start-up-aurora-powers-small-satellite-sector-0)


The biggest question about space debris is how to get it back. The best way to solve that problem is to equip satellites with a timer or a system that destroys satellites when their mission is over. 

The AI-based system can be thought that the satellite's mission is over when there is no contact with operators at a certain time. Or the mission clock is at zero. And in some cases, the system can search the level of the trajectory adjustment rocket's fuel. If that fuel is low, the satellite can ask if does operator want to refuel it. When the answer is "no", the satellite would dive back into the atmosphere. 

In that case, the best solution is the system that uses the trajectory adjustment engines for pushing the satellite back into the atmosphere. In that case, when rocket fuel is low or the mission time of satellites is over, the system just pushes the satellite back into the atmosphere. 


Another case is to use a plasma brake. That system uses the Coulomb interaction or electromagnetic repel. When the satellite is loaded with positive electricity.


It pushes against protons or positive helium ions. That is coming from the sun. Then plasma brake pushes against those particles which should slow the speed of the satellite. In some visions, the dead satellites can load with positive electricity. And that turns them into plasma brakes. 

But the best choice is to program satellites to dive automatically back into the atmosphere when their mission is over. In that case, the satellites could equip with heat shields and parachutes. The returning system guarantees that the satellite can return to researchers who are investigating the damages that Van Allen's plasma belts and micrometeorites caused to it.

In the wildest visions, the antimatter can use to push dead satellites away from their orbiter. The idea is that. A thin gold plate can be put between the satellite and the sun. That thing turns electrons that are coming from the sun into antimatter. And those anti-electrons or positrons would push the satellite away from the orbiter. 

In some ideas, the laser satellites can drive dead satellites out of their trajectory by using laser or ion beams that are shot from higher orbiters. The idea is that the ice bites are connected to satellites. 


Laser satellites can push dead satellites out of their trajectory. 


And then the laser or ion beam will shoot at those ice bites. In some models, the ice is in balloons that robots connect with satellites. When a laser or beam hits those ice bites. It vaporizes that water immediately. 

That thing pushes the satellite back into the atmosphere. In some other visions, the satellites are loaded with positive electricity like in plasma brakes. And then the electron beam or negative ions will shoot to those satellites. In that case, the positive electricity pulls those particles to the satellite. 

In some models, the iron powder that is loaded with negative electricity will be shot against satellites that are loaded with positive electricity.

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real? Is TR-3B (0) "Black Triangle UFO" or is it only the piece of paper?  The study project, what is used to create advanced ideas for use of the nuclear-powered aircraft. Or is it the study project or black budget aircraft, where lost 2,3 trillion dollars (1)of the stealth bomber were gone. In this text is things, that might seem very difficult to accept, and when we are thinking about things like doubling the object or making it smaller by using huge layers of energy, nothing denies to test those things. But were those tests successful, there is no data about that in public Internet, so we must say that things like doubling the human or aircraft can be tested, but the results can be unknown.  But in the source two is the tale, what seems like impossible, those men, who got Noble Prize put at first time one atom to the box, and hit it with photon one photon in the box and hit it with th

Mythic Planet X is an interesting thing because that allows the way to the perfect stealth technology.

  Mythic Planet X is an interesting thing because that allows the way to the perfect stealth technology.  Could a hypothetical Planet X tunnel all radiation?  The myth of Planet X still lives. Nobody ever saw that planet, and the thing that supports the theory of previously unknown large-size planets in Kuiper's belt are mysterious anomalies in Neptune's trajectory. The thing is that nothing else supports the theory of the existence of the "invisible planet". The size of the planet must be very big. And its gravitational field strong that it can affect Neptune's trajectory.  And the search for that mysterious planet is very long work. In some visions, the mysterious gravitational source is mentioned as the small black hole, but nobody understands why that black hole doesn't seem to interact.  In some other theories, Planet X is a glimpse of dark matter. And that thing makes it invisible. But there is one weakness. The dark matter object must have some kind of

Nanoparticles are excellent tools for medicine transporters.

"Researchers have developed a new therapy for pancreatic cancer involving nanoparticles that stimulate immune responses and improve drug delivery. This innovative method has led to significant tumor reduction in mice and holds potential for treating other cancers. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, New Nanoparticle Cancer Treatment Successfully Shrinks and Eliminates Pancreatic Tumors) Nanoparticles can carry medicines into wanted cells. The idea is that the same system that feeds those cells transports those nanoparticles into cells that need medicine. When a nanoparticle goes, into a cell, it releases the chemicals into the targeted cells. Because nanoparticles don't let medical molecules interact with a body that makes it possible to create new and more powerful cytostatics. Nanoparticles can transport things like ricin molecules into wanted cells.  Ricin is one of the most poisonous chemicals. That chemical is useful for next-generation cytostatics, if researche
