The Solar Step Universe

Can you imagine a weapon which will destroy its target from a mile with a mere beam? Could a weapon ever destroy the circuits of the target weapon machinery from a distance so far? Answer is YES! A Directed-energy weapon is being designed to work in such a way that if an enemy missile is launched towards you, it will quickly emit powerful pulses of Relativistic electron beam and destroy the target. Unlike laser beams, it does not bore a hole in the target but thoroughly damages the on-board electronic systems. Unimaginable, isn't it? It can potentially be used as a beam weapon. Bursts of microwaves packed with gigawatts of power produced by this machine, when aimed at enemy missiles and aircraft will cripple their electronic system and computer chips and bring them down right away.  The KALI (Kilo Ampere Linear Injector) is that linear electron accelerator being developed in India by Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Bhabha Atomic Research Centre ...

If you've watched the famous Marvel movie "X-Men"(2000) or "X-Men Origins: Wolverine" or just "Logan" you must be familiar to indestructible superhero Wolverine. It is illustrated in fiction that the hero can self heal his own skin after any injury to it. Getting idea from this, scientists of Los Angeles have developed a transparent, self-healing, highly stretchable conductive material that can be electrically activated to power artificial muscles and used to improve batteries, electronic devices and robots. The low-cost, easy to produce soft rubber-like material can stretch 50 times its original length, researchers say,after being cut, it can completely re-attach, or heal, in 24 hours at room temperature. In fact, after only five minutes of healing the material can be stretched two times its original length. The findings from researchers, including those from University of California, Riverside in the US, represent the first time scientist...
