Why is the defense against hypersonic cruise missile so difficult?

(Picture 1)

Kimmo Huosionmaa

Hypersonic missile or cruise missile (HCM) is the new type of weapon, what uses technology that allows the weapon glide to the ground with the extremely high speed with gentle incoming trajectory. This would give the very big challenge for the defense, what must react this threat only in a couple of seconds. The launching of those extremely fast weapons may be done by submarines, surface warships or by aircraft. This weapon is the new type of solution for first strike missions.

Hypersonic cruise missiles are developed in many nations. The limitations of this kind of weapon are very difficult because they don't need warheads. And the kinetic energy what is boosted with microwaves is the devastating combination for aircraft carriers. The microwave-transmitter can installed to the nose of those missiles, and it can be got the necessary electric power from windmill turbogenerators.

The extremely high speed would give very powerful microwaves. The microwaves would be devastating for the target, and if they are not enough, would the kinetic energy terminate the structure, when the missile hits the target with speed above Mach 8. And those hypersonic cruise missiles can accelerate up to speed Mach 12. The kinetic energy would be very devastating at that speed. But the problem is, that those missiles can mask as the new superfast airplane-testbeds.

One of the greatest problems with hypersonic missiles is that they use so-called low observable technology. That means that the head of that missile is invincible for radars because the shape of the hypersonic body would be similar with B-2 Stealth-bomber. And the gentle shape what allows to avoid the radar-waves would also allow avoiding the friction of the atmosphere.

The final problem with those weapons is that some of them are equipped with similar ECM-systems, what makes the detecting and targeting the air defense missiles to this hypersonic target extremely difficult. Also, some of those missiles are equipped with microwave generators, what mission will be heat the target and make their armor softer, what gives the missile greater penetration. Another mission of those microwave systems is also terminate the electric systems of the target.

As I have written earlier, those hypersonic cruise missiles can destroy even the aircraft carriers by using kinetic energy. The nuclear warhead makes those weapons even more devastating. The gentle trajectory would allow striking against the doors of underground leading facilities. The weapon can strike against the door of those facilities. And it can detonate just outside the cave, what protects the command center. The only problem is that nuclear warhead must detonate in microseconds.

Black holes cause a virtual redshift because gravitation stretches the wavelength near them.

At the beginning of this text is a film about the redshift of black holes. Gravitation stretches light, and that means gravitation fields are pulling waves longer. That thing is called the gravitational redshift. As you can see from the film, the black hole stretches radiation and distorts the redshift. Gravitational redshift, or virtual redshift, means that a black hole might seem to be at a longer distance than it is. The film shows the redshift of the star that orbits a supermassive black hole. But all other black holes interact the same way. The event horizon is always constant. At that point, the black hole's escaping velocity is the same as the speed of light. So every black hole interacts basically in the same way. And it's possible to apply that model to all black holes irrespective of their size. Is gravitation the thing that forms dark energy? That thing seems somehow strange. But when photons and other particles are traveling through the ball that forms the visible

The shape of the brain means more than neuro connectivity.

Well, we might say that the brain is in its entirety. Another thing is that all things in the brain have some kind of purpose. The shape of the brain and, especially, the folding of the brain shell are extremely important things. Those folds are expanding the brain's surface areas. And the brain shell has a primary role in the thinking process. The surface area of the brain determines how large the cerebral cortex is. And in a large cerebral cortex, there are a large number of neurons. But as I just wrote, the brain is in its entirety. "Researchers have discovered that the shape of a person’s brain significantly impacts thought, feeling, and behavior, overturning the prevailing emphasis on complex neuronal connectivity. Utilizing MRI scans and the principle of eigenmodes, they found that brain function is closely linked to its geometric properties, much like how the shape of a musical instrument determines its sound, offering new avenues for exploring brain function and diseas

New nanomaterial is 4 times harder than steel. And, at the same time 5 times lighter than steel.

New nanomaterial is 4 times harder than steel. And, at the same time 5 times lighter than steel. The new material is the hollow glass fiber with DNA molecules inside that structure. Or as you see from the image. The glass fibers are on both sides of the DNA. DNA molecule is the thing, that involves the genetic code of the cells. Genetically engineered cells can make DNA, and those molecules can used as the nanomaterial's structures. DNA manipulation makes it possible to create new types of extremely strong materials. And those materials are stronger than steel and lighter than it. DNA molecules can act as nano-size springs. And in some visions, genetically engineered cyborg cells like cyborg macrophages can make extremely long DNA molecules. And then they can just use those molecules as spears that can pierce wanted cells. Or those cyborg cells can also dumb targeted cells full of the DNA that terminates them immediately. The DNA and nanotube combinations can also act as DNA-b
