The rebellion of the robots can set entire civilization in danger

This is the writing about the situation, where robots would become dangerous for the human race. Those robots might be created by mankind, and they could be some space probes, what would be sent to another star in distant future. Those probes would lose contact with Earth and it would make the terrible situation for mankind. Also, they might be left by human or alien colonialists who have left their planet. The reason for leaving might be that the planet could be too hot or cold, and this causes the situation, where they should leave to another star system. Maybe those colonists would stop only because they needed to repair their spaceships and then they were gone. If they would not close the robot factories property, those machines would be wake up and become a threat.


The intelligence doesn’t necessarily mean that some species are living. In real life, scientists are creating robots, what are looking like animals like bugs. Those new kind of robots are working independently, and they don’t need electricity for working property. Those animal-shaped robots could be equipped with fuel cells, what can make electricity using alcohol or another hydrocarbon. Those artificial bugs can be same sized than butterfly or dragonfly. In this scenario, the person might have this kind of robot for guarding the house. Artificial dragonfly can use alcohol like spree to create the electricity for its operations. When this small size robot needs refueling, it just flies to the plate, where is alcohol, and then it uses it in its fuel cells. The CIA would use this kind of vehicles for intelligence missions. In the wildest dreams, those small-sized robots could someday investigate the surface of the Saturnian giant moon Titan.This kind of devices can use the hydrocarbon from this moons seas.


The only thing what is needed is that in those chemical combinations have oxygen. It can be separated from the molecules by using the active carbon filter. If we are thinking about artificial intelligence and this kind of devices, we must understand, that they can continue their job even if their creators have been gone. This is the problem with interstellar space flight. If we will send the space probe with sophisticated Artificial Intelligence, this probe could become a new species, because in this scenario I will begin with the thing, that those interstellar probes have the capacity to fix themselves and make the copy of themselves. In this scenario, the artificial intelligence starts to develop itself, and because that probe has been traveled to another star maybe millions of years, the communication between Earth and this probe has been cut.


I sometimes have thought that what will happen to the probes, what have been traveled pass their target star. In the scenario, what British Interplanetary society have called “Project Daedalus” the massive probe would be sent to the Barnard Star, and the key element of this mission is that this space probe will fly past the star, and then it starts the orbital probe when it comes near the planetary system. Those probes of the future must be equipped by sophisticated artificial intelligence, what can find materials from the space to replace its structural damages. And it could also make copies of itself. The machine, what makes copies of itself is called as the “Von Neumann-machines”. When the probe has passed the star, the communication with Earth will be minimized. And then probe would lose contact with humans. This doesn’t mean that the artificial intelligence would stop working.


The nuclear reactors and other power devices are fully operational, and if the probe would travel in the space using self-sustain fusion power with the interstellar ramjet, this probe would continue its missions, and if the message from Earth would not come, this device may start to make copies of itself. In other scenarios, the civilization would build automatized factories on some planet. Those factories would make the machines and parts independently. And when this civilization would leave from this planet, they might forget to shut down their factory. If this factory can make product development and revolutionize the productions independently, it can be the begin for new species, what is actually a robot. The robot civilization would become the threat to other species because it might be felt necessary to colonize other planets.


The problem of the robots is that if they are programmed to protect their creators, who have passed away, the situation would turn violent. If they would not get any vision, of the creature, what was planned to protect, the robots would start next level of the program. And they would maybe think that their masters are dead. Robots would not have imagined. Robots do not apply anything. So in this scenarios, if the masters of those robots are gone, those machines don’t make any investigations like archeological digging, if they are not involved in their programs.


And if their masters are gone, would robots start the counterstrike. The counter strike would be limited to the normal situation. When somebody would hit against the masters of those robots, the counterstrike would be stopped by another master. But if there would be no masters of the system, would the counterstrike become the massacre. And in this scenario, those robots might start to build spaceships for continuing the strike, because the programmers of this machine would not prepare for the situation, where there are no masters of this system. And it can cause the robot invasion of another planet.

The hydrogen-burning supernovas are interesting models.

"Researchers discovered a significant magnesium anomaly in a meteorite’s dust particle, challenging current astrophysical models and suggesting new insights into hydrogen-burning supernovas. (Artist’s concept.)Credit: SciTechDaily.com" (ScitechDaily, Rare Dust Particle From Ancient Extraterrestrial Meteorite Challenges Astrophysical Models) If the star is too heavy when its fusion reaction starts, it can detonate just at that moment, when its fusion starts. If the collapsing nebula is heavy enough, it can form a black hole straight from the nebula. But if the nebula's gravity is too heavy to  form  the blue giant or too  small  it can collapse  straight  into a black hole . If  the forming star is a little bit larger than the blue supergiants. It can explode immediately when the fusion starts.    The theory of hydrogen-burning supernovas consists  model  of the giant stars that explode immediately after their fusion starts. When the...

The ancient galaxy mirrors the Milky Way.

"This image shows the galaxy REBELS-25 as seen by the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), overlaid on an infrared image of other stars and galaxies. The infrared image was taken by ESO’s Visible and Infrared Survey Telescope for Astronomy (VISTA). In a recent study, researchers found evidence that REBELS-25 is a strongly rotating disc galaxy existing only 700 million years after the Big Bang. This makes it the most distant and earliest known Milky Way-like galaxy found to date. Credit: ALMA (ESO/NAOJ/NRAO)/L. Rowland et al./ESO/J. Dunlop et al. Ack.: CASU, CALET" (ScitechDaily, Astronomers Baffled by Ancient Galaxy That Mirrors Modern Milky Way) Researchers found the youngest Milky Way-type galaxy. The distance to the galaxy is enormous. And the light that comes from that galaxy named REBELS-25 comes from the Universe that is only 700 million years old. The distance to that galaxy is enormous about 236 billion light years. And that means it's a very dista...

Transcendence, or the ability to transcendent thinking may grow in teen's brains.

   "New research has discovered that transcendent thinking, which involves analyzing the broader implications of situations, can foster brain growth in adolescents. This form of thinking enhances brain network coordination, impacting developmental milestones and future life satisfaction. The study emphasizes the need for education that encourages deep, reflective thought, underscoring the critical role of adolescents in their own brain development". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) "Scientists at  USC Rossier School of Education’s Center for Affective Neuroscience, Development, Learning and Education (CANDLE) have discovered that adolescents who grapple with the bigger meaning of social situations experience greater brain growth, which predicts stronger identity development and life satisfaction years later".
