Off to War Again?

HMS Queen Elizabeth is Preparing?

It looks as if we here in the U.K. are off to was with N-Korea soon, one thought it was going to be Russia? But it looks like we will have to support the U.S. President Trump and His U.S. forces in the far-east?

Britain was involved in the first Korean peninsula war, which brought about N and S-Korea, at the cost of 20% loss of Korean lives! The North-Korean leader is portrayed in the Western media as mad, but the reality is far from that claim!

The British Royal Navy will be putting our new aircraft to the test in the China sea and joining other NATO forces. One hopes that neither China nor Russia get involved in military action, but rather diplomatic roles?

This new carrier will prove itself with the Lockheed Martin F-35 deployment, and its range of BAE Missile systems, because it may get battered from N-Korean defence systems? It is not clear what Britain's role in this war is to be as yet?

The U.S has threatened a Nuclear strike, the first since 1945 in the region! The great dangers, will be if Iran, Pakistan get involved? It is estimated that thirty-one million people will die and a further ten to fifteen million suffer from the radiation fall out?

Farm Machinery. One.

Not getting any Smaller.

The concept in farm machinery is to cut out the need for farm labour, apart from a few cases of specialist vegetable crops that have to be picked by hand? But even here the days of needing a human picker are fading too, to be replaced by the gentle hand robotics?

The other reason is the size of fields today are far much bigger than they were seventy years ago, this is because of the removing of the traditional ditches. Machines today can do eighteen drill ploughing over that of the conventional four on most small tractors.

Most of the new farming machines have nearly everything in their cabs, but not yet a bed? Computerised and heated they can work both day and night to sow and to reap, depending on the time of the year. Costs are astronomical for these new beats going into the millions in some cases, one has to wonder that there must be still money in farming?

Space..

The Final Frontier.

These are the famous words of a popular Science-Fiction series 'Star Trek. But from 1957 an onwards this is a ever expanding truth for humanity. We spend more money going up into space, than we do on feeding the millions of starving people on our planet.

All modern communications from the Internet to GPS, TV to the weather is part of gathered and transmitted information hubs located in near Earth-Space. Robotic probes have now been sent to nearly every part of our solar system, both near and far.

With these ships we have discovered our near by planets and their moons are just as active, with volcano's and other seismic activity as here on Earth. Our own Moon is made predominately of Ice, rather than cheese. Meanwhile we are learning more about Mars daily, than we have tried to map our own Oceans.
