Solar sails to the solar system and beyond.

The solar sails are tools. That can make it possible to create fast. And maybe cheap ways to transit space around the solar system. The solar sails are the mylar sails that get their movement energy from the solar wind. The particle flow from the sun pushes solar sail forward. And that system is useful. At least for the operations that happen inside the asteroid belt. The large mylar structure can combine with radars and solar panels. 

The small solar panels can cover the mylar structure. And they can give power to the small probe. Developers can connect radars and laser communication tools to the solar sail technology. The solar-powered lasers can be in an "X"-shaped form in the mylar structure. And they can focus their beam into the middle of the sail. 


The military purposes. 


The next-generation electronic intelligence ELINT satellites san use solar-sail technology. The giant antennas that those high-orbiting or stationary satellites use can use solar-sail technology in their structures. Those satellites may be equipped with a laser communication tool, that transforms captured signal into laser rays. That allows us to keep the satellite mission secret. 

Those high-orbiting satellites might have things, like small rail guns to destroy incoming ASAT weapons. In some versions, the solar-sail technology is used in the giant mirrors that can reflect laser beams away from satellites. But the same mirrors can used to aim the large ground-based lasers at the right targets. The ground-based lasers can shoot laser beams through those mirrors. 

"NASA’s Advanced Composite Solar Sail System launched as a secondary payload aboard Rocket Lab’s ‘Beginning of the Swarm’ mission. The Solar Sail System will demonstrate the use of innovative materials and structures to deploy a next-generation solar sail from a microwave-sized CubeSat. Just as a sailboat is powered by wind in a sail, solar sails employ the pressure of sunlight for propulsion, eliminating the need for conventional rocket propellant.

Project Orion and solar sails: The same technology fits many purposes. 


In the past, the USAF had a project called "Orion". The idea was to use nuclear bombs to transport spacecraft to Mars. The idea was this: the nuclear explosion behind the craft would push it into the transit trajectory to Mars and the far solar system. In the modified version the "Orion" craft uses the neutron bombs for thrust. 


However, there is a possibility that solar sails are used for interstellar flight. Or at least, flight to the outer solar system. In some versions, the giant lasers will give thrust for the solar sail outside the asteroid belt. In some other models, other rockets or solar sails send the hydrogen bombs at certain points of the solar sail trajectory. When the solar sail passes those targets, the hydrogen bomb explodes. And gives thrust to the solar sail. 

In some models, the ice asteroids are replacing those hydrogen bombs. And then the laser system sends a laser beam into those ice bites. That laser beam detonates the ice bite and then the vapor pushes the solar wind forward. 

The lasers that are used in that kind of mission are enormous. But it's possible. The laser system uses the hydrogen bomb as its energy source. The fusion bomb gives extremely powerful energy impulses to the laser element. The laser aims a powerful beam to the target. 


The solar sail could be a perfect structure for lasers that get their energy from annihilation. 


In some versions, the solar sail can use antimatter bombs to detonate objects behind it. The antimatter chamber is a tank where antimatter hovers in a vacuum in a magnetic field. The magnetic system keeps antiparticles away from the chamber wall. The solar sail can shoot those about bullet-sized chambers behind it. Then the chamber pulls antimatter particles to the chamber wall. That causes detonation behind the solar sail. 

In some other models, the solar sail-type structure can drive positrons and electrons in the middle of it. The system can create positrons from electron flow. And the antiparticle-particle annihilation pushes the sail forward. The solar sail structure acts as a heat control tool. The antimatter annihilation allows create of small and powerful lasers. 

The solar sail-type giant nets are planned to be used as bags for asteroids or space junk. The mylar bag closes the asteroid inside it. And then the small space shuttle transports it to a trajectory where the asteroid can benefit. The idea is that the giant mylar bag takes space junk inside it. Then the space junk will return to the ground. There are also plans. The military can close enemy satellites in the mylar bag and make them unable to operate. Then the system can pull them into the atmosphere.

What is the difference between TR-3A and TR-3B? And are those planes real?

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
