Sierra Space's Dream Chaser miniature shuttle advances ISS supply.

    Sierra Space's Dream Chaser miniature shuttle advances ISS supply. 


Dream Chaser miniature shuttle is one of the miniature space shuttles, like X37B, developed for civil and military purposes. NASA used Dream Chaser to transport equipment to the ISS (International Space Station). This miniature shuttle can make its missions manned or unmanned. 

The Dream Chaser and its companions can also fix satellites and make many other space duties. The miniature shuttles can carry repairement robots to trajectory. Those robots can also remove critical parts from jammed military and civil satellites that operate in confidential roles. That denies the confidential information transfer to hostile hands. 

The space shuttles can carry radars or telescopes. That can observe ground and other satellites. Those radars can find lost cities in the jungle.  But it also can search underground complexes. That kind of radio signal will not involve data.

Maybe the Chinese shuttle's six mysterious "wingmen" are some kind of radar satellites. It's possible that the empty signals that some of those wingmen capsules keep the frequency occupied. Or maybe they are targeting signals that the shuttle can find those capsules. And transfer them to its cargo bay. 

In my wildest dreams, those capsules are antimatter tanks. The magnetic bottle has a thin gold layer that turns electrons to positrons. The orbiter is a good place to collect antimatter. And I certainly hope that I'm wrong. 

The miniature shuttle can operate under the AI control and it can record information into its hard disk. Then the shuttle returns and the crew will download its mission data. 

When we think of miniature shuttles as space fighters whose mission is to destroy satellites or incoming missiles we can say that centrifugal cannons are enough for that mission. The projectile's speed must not rise very high if the shuttle starts to orbit in the opposite direction to its target.

When those centrifugal cannons launch projectiles against the target. Shuttle and its target are at impact course. That gives those projectiles a very high impact speed. That kind of system is effective against missiles and satellites. The other thing is this. Space shuttles are multimission systems and modular mission packs that can be positioned in a cargo bay making them powerful and flexible systems.

The new bendable sensor is like straight from the SciFi movies.

"Researchers at Osaka University have developed a groundbreaking flexible optical sensor that works even when crumpled. Using carbon nanotube photodetectors and wireless Bluetooth technology, this sensor enables non-invasive analysis and holds promise for advancements in imaging, wearable technology, and soft robotics. Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, From Sci-Fi to Reality: Scientists Develop Unbreakable, Bendable Optical Sensor) The new sensor is like the net eye of bugs. But it's more accurate than any natural net eye. The system is based on flexible polymer film and nanotubes. The nanotubes let light travel through it. And then the film at the bottom of those tubes transforms that light into the image. This ultra-accurate CCD camera can see ultimate details in advanced materials. The new system can see the smallest deviation in the materials.  And that thing makes it possible to improve safety on those layers. The ability to see ultra-small differences on surf

Quantum breakthrough: stable quantum entanglement at room temperature.

"Researchers have achieved quantum coherence at room temperature by embedding a light-absorbing chromophore within a metal-organic framework. This breakthrough, facilitating the maintenance of a quantum system’s state without external interference, marks a significant advancement for quantum computing and sensing technologies". (ScitechDaily, Quantum Computing Breakthrough: Stable Qubits at Room Temperature) Japanese researchers created stable quantum entanglement at room temperature. The system used a light-absorbing chromophore along with a metal-organic framework. This thing is a great breakthrough in quantum technology. The room-temperature quantum computers are the new things, that make the next revolution in quantum computing. This technology may come to markets sooner than we even think. The quantum computer is the tool, that requires advanced operating- and support systems.  When the support system sees that the quantum entanglement starts to reach energy stability. I

Humans should be at the center of AI development.

"Experts advocate for human-centered AI, urging the design of technology that supports and enriches human life, rather than forcing humans to adapt to it. A new book featuring fifty experts from over twelve countries and disciplines explores practical ways to implement human-centered AI, addressing risks and proposing solutions across various contexts." (ScitechDaily, 50 Global Experts Warn: We Must Stop Technology-Driven AI) The AI is the ultimate tool for handling things that behave is predictable. Things like planets' orbiting and other mechanical things that follow certain natural laws are easy things for the AI. The AI might feel human, it can have a certain accent. And that thing is not very hard to program.  It just requires the accent wordbook, and then AI can transform grammatically following text into text with a certain accent. Then the AI drives that data to the speech synthesizer. The accent mode follows the same rules as language translation programs. The ac
