The Mikoyan-Gurevich design bureau made tests in 1980's with very small size space-shuttle, what became famous, when some Australian P-3 "Orion" took the picture of this thing, what was mentioned as the "Soviet space fighter". The Soviet authorities claimed that the Soviet Union would not develop space shuttles, but the pictures, what are taken from the "Plesetsk-cosmodrome" have been shown something else. Here I must mention, that there were two shuttle programs in the Soviet Union. Another one was "Buran" the large spacecraft, what had the size like American space shuttle.

That program shut down after a couple of tests and the Western intelligence believed, the purpose of that miniature space shuttle were military, and it would be developed for destroying other spacecraft. There were also some other analyzes, what was frighten the Western world. Those analyzes were that the MiG-105 was the prototype of the next generation cruise missile, what could be more terrible than HCM (Hypersonic Cruise Missile)could ever be.

Because of the photos, what was taken by P-3 Orion, and where the small size lifting body would be rescued from the sea to the Soviet naval vessel made the engineers believed, that this missile, could be used the EKRANOPLAN or WIG (Win In-Ground) what is normally called the "ground effect airplane". This technology would allow, that the cruise missile would make the "parabolic jump", and then land to the altitude of three meters for the surface of the ocean. In some scenarios, this weapon could be equipped with three jet motors, what could be at the bottom of this thing.

Those jet engines would make the landing to the ground effect flight easily, and the missile would continue with ramjets or rocket engines, and the most effective those missiles would be against warships like aircraft carriers. This could make the missile more deadly, than ever. The Russian new HCS would use the same technology, what is used in the MiG-105.

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". (ScitechDaily, Scientists Discover That “Transcendent” Thinking May Grow Teens’ Brains) The transcendenc...
