How to colonize the galaxy by using very slow crafts? 


There is the possibility that we ever can make things like FTL (Faster-Than-Light) technology. But there is another way to travel between stars. And that technology is called "generation ships". Those crafts would reach about 1-20% of the speed of light. 

And that thing means that travel to the nearest solar systems takes even thousands of years. In that version, generations will change inside the craft. And when the journey ends to Alpha Centauri or Bernard Star the people inside that craft are forgetting the Earth. And they might think of their craft as home. 

Those generation ships require lots of genetic material. For denying the genetic matter degeneration. The degeneration predisposes the organism to hereditary diseases. So the crew must modify the genomes of the next generations. So that the variation of the DNA is high enough. 

That craft could be a giant O'Neill cylinder. And when that cylinder travels in interstellar space the rotation movement that forms the synthetic gravitation field will be at a minimum. In that case, the purpose of synthetic gravitation is just to anchor things like vegetables to surfaces. The crew members would be physically very weak. And when the craft closes its target the rotation speed will increase. 

That makes those persons stronger. And when the colonization begins. The rotation speed must be so high. That artificial gravitation is at the level of the targeted planet. So in that case in the middle of that cylinder must be magnets that are making the core resist the centripetal force of fast rotation movement. 





The Tipler cylinder can travel between stars.


If the sum of the speed of rotating plasma and escaping velocity crosses the speed of light. That should make time move backward. So by thinking that way the time travel to both sides is possible. The idea is that when the speed will reach the speed of light. 

That thing causes the time will stop. And if the gravitation field causes that energy level rises higher than the speed of light. That thing makes the time will start to move backward. 

 In that system, the time dilation will be made by using the rotating plasma layer. When plasma rotates a cylinder with the speed of light. That stops time inside that structure. Tipler cylinder can make time dilate and travel to the future. 

But can Tipler cylinder travel to the past? The theory goes like this. If the speed of plasma whirl is the same as the speed of light in a vacuum the craft must just go near some gravitational center like a planet, star, or black hole. Then the sum of the rotation speed of plasma and the escaping velocity must just cross the speed of light. That thing can turn time travel backward. 

When we are thinking about the very slow spacecraft there is. The possibility that the cylinder-shaped craft would be the so-called "Tipler cylinder". The Tipler time machine must not be fast. The system can make time dilation by rotating the plasma around the cylinder. 

Some researchers have introduced a model of interstellar spacecraft, where the O'Neill cylinder will equip with two layers. And between those layers, the magnetic fields will rotate plasma with the speed of light. The system might look like an induction electric engine. In the place of the rotor is the plasma whirl that rotates between stators. 

When the plasma whirl rotates between those layers at the speed of light that thing causes time dilation. This is one version of the futuristic system that can use to travel between stars.

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
