Clementine lunar probe and the strange backgrounds of that spacecraft

In 1994 United States launched the new space probe to the Lunar Orbiter, and that probe got the name "Clementine". It was the first lunar mission of NASA after Apollo, and there were used many new kinds of sensors like CCD-cameras and another kind of systems, like radar, what mission was to look for the water on the moon. The clementine had the strange background because it was made by NASA and  BMDO (Ballistic Missile Defense Organization). 


The BMDO existence in this project has caused many rumors, that the real purpose of the "Clementine" mission was to look for Russian missiles or some other installations from the surface of the Moon. And the top of those rumors was of course, that the mission was made for locating the alien base from the Moon, and then the base could be intercepted by missiles, but this was of course only one hypothesis. 


There were many things, what was kept secret in the "Clementine" mission, and one of them was the reason, why BMDO took part in this project? Was there somebody, who believed, that there were sent secret nuclear weapons to the Moon by the Soviet Union? The nuclear systems could have the similar shape with Luna 16 probes, but I certainly hope, that those special nuclear missiles are only fiction. The Moon would be the perfect place for remote-controlled nuclear missiles, that can launch to the Earth and their targets by using remote control. The guidance of those weapons would be done with television and joystick. Or the warhead can use the image-identification system, what is brand new guidance method because it needs a quite much computer power. 


The reason, why BMDO was involved in this project is the mystery because that organization mission is to plane the ballistic missile defense tools like ABM-missiles and directed energy systems against ICBM. Above the text is a picture of "Clementine", and that spacecraft claimed to be different, and the real "Clementine" is mentioned be the football-shaped spacecraft, what would be covered the solar panels and light cells. The mission of those light cells would be that they can make 360 degrees image for the probe, what can use as the kinetic energy ammunition. 


Why I expect that is the vegetable "Clementine" is the ball-shaped thing and the spacecraft should have some connection with their names. And maybe the real "Clementine" was the ball, what mission was to demonstrate the way to make similar visibility as the bugs have. Another thing, what might be demonstrated could be, that could the CCD-chips replace the normal silicon panels, what makes the spacecraft more compact than using traditional structure. If the solar panels could also work as the cameras, they could warn the space probe incoming micro-meteorites.

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
