The Flying Tesla is Coming, Sooner or Later
We’ve all dreamed of owning, or at the very least being a passenger of, a flying car. It’s the sci-fi dream that never transpired — until recently, that is. With a growing emphasis of developing flying taxis among several different companies, one wonders if the revolutionary Tesla Motors has plans to join in on this new venture.
Could Elon Musk’s random tweet from late last year be an indicator of Tesla’s interest in flying cars and their joining of this brand new “space race?”
Carbon kinetic weapons
Future wars could be much more fierce with weapons even more powerful than nukes:
The world is progressing in many ways, but tribalism isn’t going away, so new arms races in AI, drones, bio-weapons and space weapons are already under way. Forewarned is forearmed. What sort of weaponry should we expect? I’ve discussed AI and bio approaches before on other blogs, so this one looks just at kinetic weaponry using advanced materials, coupled to EM acceleration systems.
https://carbondevices.com/2017/08/31/using-inverse-rail-guns…ce-launch/ shows a crude illustration of my invention, the inverse rail gun, which inverts the idea of using a slug on a short rail gun and uses the short rail gun to accelerate a long tape instead.
Tempe scientist 2nd woman in the world to lead deep-space mission
TEMPE, Ariz. — A Tempe woman could not believe it when she got the phone call.
NASA was on the other end of the line. Lindy Elkins-Tanton, a planetary scientist with the School of Earth and Space Exploration at Arizona State University, learned she would be leading a deep-space mission–the Psyche Mission.
Her objective is to send a robotic probe to a metal asteroid called Psyche.
