Some people always, ask why Russian navy has only one aircraft carrier? The reason for that is simple: the war in Europe means that the prime mission of Russian navy is to cut NATO's convoy and support lines to Europe. And this means that Russians have more need for submarines, what can shoot high-speed cruise- and ballistic missiles to the targets. The mission of those submarines is also destroyed NATO surface battle units like carrier groups.

The reason why Russians have the aircraft carrier, what have effective missiles what can be used with or without aircraft, is the question, what many people always ask. The Admiral Kuznetsov, what is the name for Russian only aircraft carrier have P-700 "Granit" (SS-N-19 "Shipwreck") missiles on board, and it has about 41 for use aircraft in operations. The reason for that is, the aircraft carrier would be meant for use in anti-terrorist operations. In those operations would need to replace the aircraft of that carrier with helicopters, and in that case, must the ship have own weapons to protect itself and give it the capacity to attack against other ships and coastal targets. And if that aircraft carrier uses only helicopters, could the enemy disturb it, if that ship doesn't have own missiles for giving trustworthiness for that ship.

Russians might want to use the aircraft carrier as the supporting large-scale helicopter missions and temporary airbase for Sukhoi Su-33, what is a carrier-based version of Sukhoi Su-27. And of course, that aircraft carrier can operate Sukhoi Su-25 "Frogfoot" STOL (Short Take-Off and Land) assault planes, what allows those flight crews possibility to take a rest in safe place. In large scale helicopter operations, Russian fleet would be evacuated Russian citizens from the conflict area or try to destroy NATO's submarines.

The aircraft of aircraft carrier needed for secure that mission. Also, special forces like Naval Infantry and VDV can get tactical air support from that carrier, and in Syria, some classified weapons like satellite-guided weapons might be stored in that carrier, because they are not allowed to get to hands of enemies. That could be the reason, why Russians don't produce their own NATO-style carriers, what have only airplanes to operate. Russian aircraft carrier uses also Anti-ship missiles, and that carrier is actually capable of ground targets by using its own missiles.

Russian navy can operate very effective by using strategic bombers like TU-22M or TU-26 "Backfires" and submarines against those surface battle units, and the helicopters are needed for rescue the crews of those bombers in the case that some of them would shoot down by enemy fighters. And those helicopters would need also support from the fighters. That's why Russian navy have not the similar aircraft carriers what are used in U.S Navy.

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
