In this picture is an artist impression of the combat spacecraft, and it could be one version of "Project Thor", what was mentioned for the high power railgun, what is planned to send to the orbiter. In fact, the "Thor" was not pure railgun, what would use the pure magnetic accelerator. This system was mentioned to be like the extremely powerful airgun. Behind the accelerator was a chamber, what was filled with the hydrogen and oxygen gases, and then this gas combination would be ignited with the electric arc, and that would push the iron projectile to the accelerator.

Then the magnetic rail would give extra speed to that projectile. That magnetic accelerator could have the capacity, that it can be pulled inside the satellite, that nobody sees it from outside. The rail would be kilometers long, and it can be made extremely thin cables and magnets. In the empty space, the rail would need no tube, and that's why it could be very light. This system could accelerate the nail at the speed of 30 000 to 100 000 kilometers per hour, and in that speed, the impact power would be so high, that this weapon can cause similar damages, as the nuclear warhead.

The United States Air Force would be reported that the 6.1 meters long and 0,3 meters thick tungsten cylinder, what have the speed of Mach 10 could have same impact energy as the 11.5 tons of TNT. In this scenario, the railgun seemed like some revolver, where the tungsten arrows were in the revolver-type drum, what would be rotating, and turn the next arrow to the port of the rail. This system might have more deadly models, where would be used longer rails and more electric powers than this original "Odin" system. And this kind of system can someday turn the impacting asteroid away from Earth, but it can also be used for orbital bombardment.

Rail of this machine could be pulled inside when it would not be in use. This system can work with the nuclear reactor, but also solar panels are suitable for that device. When the weapon would be launched, the same mass of fuel must be burned in opposite side of the tube, that the aiming of that system would not be changed. There are rumors, that there would be planning of the even more powerful railgun than this device.

The rumors tell that "Project Odin" could be series of satellites, what would be docked together, and thru those satellites would go the accelerator trajectory. That modular system could give same speed as the "Hadron" accelerator. And the iron ammunition could travel near the speed of light to the target. The iron nail what travels the 90% of the speed of light would have so much impact power, that it would destroy the planets like Jupiter.

The hydrogen-burning supernovas are interesting models.

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 interstellar nebula falls it can form

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".
