Laser Cutting Machines!

 New Technology that can only be achieved with Lasers?

Many new machines, aircraft and manufacturing machines are today being created by Lasers, that could not be made in the past and so we are advancing daily to make even better things!

The problem may be in the future, after a nuclear war or a flare from the sun to knock out our computing ability, that what we have will be lost?

Lasers need a lot of tech to create them and they are complicated in their own right, without the ability to use advanced computing we could be held back over one hundred years in progression?  

Much discussion is underway to find better ways to improve what we have from industry to home printing parts?

Laser cut and print is also opening the medical world to improve on replacement bones, joints and to assist in plastic surgery and skin grafting daily new breakthroughs are being made

The Moon?

NASA's Gateway to the Solar System!

The return to the moon is underway with a new space ship being constructed in the U.S. for a return mission and the establishment of a Moon Base and first human travel to Mars by 2030? The Trump administration believe that with the current technology available all of this can be achieved within the next eleven years!

Wither this is true or not by 2030 NASA hopes that the International Space Station ISS will be defunct and some of its component parts will be cannibalised for the Moon base? At this time there is n mention of reinstating the space shuttle programme which on paper still remains a viable proposal for inter-planetary travel!

Both China and Israel now have probes working on the Moon to gather much needed data on radiation exposure from the Suns solar flares and other problems that were discovered during the Apollo flights back in the 1970's!

Rockets. Part-Two.

From the ancient Chinese to Halloween.

Fire works were developed by the Chinese initially for the pleasure, very much as they are used today to mark a celebration or event globally. 

But for a time the humble firework became a weapon from ancient China-Mongolia to the 17th Century French. The British Royal navy, and the U.S developed it as a distress flare.

The rocket came to its fore as a serious artillery piece during World-War-II (1939-45) where all allied and Axis sides had their own versions. Soviet Russia really when for the rocket from its Katyshka platforms to the BM-21 which remains in service across the world.

The humble firework today still finds other uses such as in demonstrations with the police and in pipe-bombs by most terrorists and other criminal groupings.
