Nanotechnology is one of the most powerful technologies in satellites.

In the future, nanotechnology can be a dominating tool. For military and civil space programs. When we think about the recon satellites the biggest threat to them in the future is the low-orbiter anti-satellite system. Those systems can be missiles. Or they can be direct energy weapons like high-power airborne laser systems. 

The future systems might not be similar to what they are today. The nanotechnical systems would be the large group of smaller satellites that operate as an entirety. 


The next-generation tool for civil and military space technology. Could be scanning optical telescopes. 


Nanotechnology makes it possible to create satellites and other things that were impossible before. The telescopes that are more powerful than James Webb can use nanotechnology. The idea in those telescopes is that they are forming a linear telescope group. That telescope group is tied together in the wire. That wire is connected to the axle in the middle of the satellite. In those telescopes could be extremely long rotating wires that can rotate around.

The scanning optical (Multi-mission) telescope

1) Optical telescope

2) Satellite and axle. There are communication systems in that part. 

Arrow= The rotational direction. 


In diagram 1 you might see the principle of that system. In the point of view of recon operations, we could say that those satellites could be the "Optically enhanced Rhyolites". Rhyolite satellites are the geostationary ELINT satellites. Those new satellites could have optical telescope sensors and active radar. 

The idea of the geostationary multi-mission recon satellites is that those systems can cover the same areas by using multiple sensors. When some important things are visible. Those satellites turn their telescopes to that point simply turning the mirror. And the same time the system can turn to use radar and passive ELINT sensors. 

So there is a large number of small telescopes. Connected to one satellite which is rotating them like a whip. That kind of satellite can have an extremely sharp system. And the size of the satellite can be very small. When that large telescope is needed the satellite can release those telescope groups. And when that large telescope is not needed the optical antenna can pull back in. 

Large-size telescopes can be extremely good tools for astronomical systems and civil and military recon satellites. The fact is that the large telescope that is farther than the moon can make many recon missions. The large size recon telescopes can be far away from the range of the low altitude ASAT systems.

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

The anomalies in gravity might cause dark energy.

"Physicists at UC Berkeley immobilized small clusters of cesium atoms (pink blobs) in a vertical vacuum chamber, then split each atom into a quantum state in which half of the atom was closer to a tungsten weight (shiny cylinder) than the other half (split spheres below the tungsten). (ScitechDaily, Beyond Gravity: UC Berkeley’s Quantum Leap in Dark Energy Research) By measuring the phase difference between the two halves of the atomic wave function, they were able to calculate the difference in the gravitational attraction between the two parts of the atom, which matched what is expected from Newtonian gravity.

The idea is that the particles and their quantum fields are whisk-looking structures. Those structures form the superstrings that are extremely thi

Neon and time crystals can be the new tools for quantum computing.

"New research investigates the electron-on-solid-neon qubit, revealing that small bumps on solid neon surfaces create stable quantum states, enabling precise manipulation. This research, supported by multiple foundations, emphasizes the importance of optimizing qubit fabrication, moving us closer to practical quantum computing solutions." (ScitechDaily, Quantum Riddle Solved? How Solid Neon Qubits Could Change Computing Forever) Researchers created a superposition in solid neon. And those neon ions, where the system creates superposition in their surfaces.  Making it possible to manipulate those atoms. The atom-based qubit has one problem. Orbiting electrons cause turbulence in their quantum fields. The thing that can solve the problem is to use the quantum fields for the superposition.  If the system can position electrons at a certain point, it can make a small hill to the atom's surface. And the system can use that thing for making quantum superposition between the mos
