Submarines. Part-Two.

UN Debate on Drone Weaponry?

A great debate is underway in relation to drone military weapons and how they are to be deployed and used in the near future? Concerns are in relation to target identification, can it tell the difference between hostile and non hostile and how will it know when a conflict is over if it was to meet its equivalent on the battle field?

As more and more aircraft become pilotless, so does the submariner drones based in the Midget subs these have similar capability? But it is not known if they are mini-Subs in their own right or just do reconnaissance work?

Despite money still being spent on the development of new classes of submarines, sometimes it is safer for machines to have that human override and the ability to identify friend from foe/ The next fifty years will ultimately see the introduction of more unmanned craft at sea, while armies will have vehicles without humans.

The advantages will be more weapons capability and choice to deploy in war, meaning that space of the design can be utilised to the best of ability? Much of this has arisen because of the Nano technology that one has in ones phone today, and the 'Posnotronic' brain of Science-Fiction will soon be a reality.  

Built into each unit will be advanced sensor's, sonar and so much more, that the mini-sub drone may never return to base in its life time, since it will be able to self repair and be upgraded via military GPS?

Rocket Deign. Part-One.

Russia leads in the Field.

Getting into space is the most expensive thing that humanity has undertaken, in its known history. The rocket at the moment or since 1957 has been the only way to get outside the earths gravitational field!

America had to play catch-up to the Russians in the 1960's but made it to the Moon, which many scientists believe was the biggest waste of resources? Since then America built the Space shuttle, which did a fantastic job, apart from a few losses?

But President Barak Obama cut the programme on two accounts, one cost and two old technology. There may be many other reasons in relation to its bad fire tiles safety record? Meanwhile the U.S has to share with Russia it Kazakhstan facility, to get their crews up to the ISS (International Space Station).

Half of the ISS is made up of the latest MIR sections, while the U.S. and Japan have their various modules and ESA may have one or two attached.

Russia has lead in rocketry from 1926 and its ideas on Spaceships, it has just kept on improving what it has and despite its many other developments such as the Progress Robotic modules and Mir Components both have again improved with time and reliability.

What does the future hold?

The development of a reusable plane concept has ben on the books, since the 1960's, but only up until recently was a new type of non-rocket development in the U.S. by NASA which is the first Electro Engine?

Rail Engineering Trains. Part-One.

Railways and Metros.

Railways world-wide need to be maintained, because of weather and vandelism but also daily wear and tear. To do this type of work some very high tech machines have been developed over the years to make life more easier for the railway engineers and work men to get on with the job.

Railway engineering has made leaps and bounds since the days of wagons full of gravel and navies doing all the hard labour.Navies were once the but of humour. The Irish and Scots in Britain, have now been replaced by the host of Eastern-Europeans. 

Take some consideration when you see those familiar yellow machines trying their best to get off the system in the early mornings and wonder how many men over the years were killed trying to get your train journey safe, fast for you to work and school.
