 The new quantum material is 1000X heavier with electrons than usual. 


"Columbia University researchers have synthesized the first 2D heavy fermion material, CeSiI, a breakthrough in material science. This new material, easier to manipulate than traditional 3D heavy fermion compounds, opens up new possibilities in understanding quantum phenomena, including superconductivity.

What would you do with material that mass you can adjust? The new 2D material called CeSil (cerium, silicon, and iodine) is the material whose electrons turn 1000X heavier than usual. That means electron flow or electricity can adjust the weight of that material. 

That kind of material can make many things. It can used to make new types of anti-thief systems. When expensive merchandise is waiting for transportation the system can increase its weight. Another thing that this kind of material can make are the new types of space suits. The space suit's weight can adjust so that it's comfortable and safe on the moon and Earth. 

This type of material, like CeSil, also makes it possible. Astronauts can operate in artificial gravity created using rotating space stations. The problem with those "Von Braun wheels" is that the Earth's gravity requires an extremely fast rotating speed. And that causes stress for those structures. In the rotating wheel, the centripetal force is making the artificial gravity. The heavyweight suits can make astronauts feel comfortable also in weak gravity. 


The material that weighs the system can adjust making it possible that the astronauts can use suits that anchor them on the floor in weak gravity. That thing makes also weak gravity comfortable. And those astronauts can use this kind of technology to adjust their suit's weight in the different gravitational areas. 

On the moon, weak gravity makes working in lightweight suits dangerous. And on Earth, the lightweight suits are more comfortable than on the Moon. So maybe in the future, the system can adjust the weight of the suit by using electron flow. In the same way, the quantum system can adjust things like aircraft and ship's weight. 

The aircraft's body is formed of thin layers of titanium and aluminum. It's possible. That there are 2D material layers between those metal layers that are on top of each other like butter dough. Those 2D materials can adjust the weight of the aircraft's body and change its barycenter. The 2D materials like graphene can cover entire aircraft. 

And the material that adjusts its weight can be between metal layers. In the same way, that kind of ability can make it possible to create ships that have new abilities to adjust their balance and barycenter. 

And that gives them interesting abilities. The thing is that even if the material is 2D that can make it possible to create extremely large and elastic structures. In those structures, the 2D materials can be put on top of each other. There could be nano springs or fullerene sticks between those layers. 

And that "hamburger structure" can make it possible to create new types of structures. The 2D structures can also form the plate layer that is well-known from samurai armor. The small plates that are connected with elastic materials like kevlar can make a new way to create space suits and body armor.

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
