Mysteries of the world

  The rogue waves are one of the most interesting phenomena in the oceans.  Rogue waves are unpredicted very high waves. Those waves look like Tsunamis that are forming in undersea earthquakes. Tsunami rises when waves reach the shoal and the water must rise over it. That means tsunamis are dangerous only on shores and shoals.  The rogue wave doesn't seem to have a connection with volcanoes or underwater earthquakes. And most of those waves are seen outside the shoals. That means the rogue waves can be very surprising.  In some models, rogue waves form when the water pulse that travels near the bottom of the sea suddenly impacts some kind of underwater hill or mountain. If the high-speed water layer impacts underwater hills, that rises water to the surface. And that thing can form a giant wave, that seems coming from nowhere. When a high-speed water pulse travels underwater water pressure will not let those water molecules release their energy to up.  "Scientist...

     Only 1% less sleep increases senior brain risk of dementia.  The thing that makes this study interesting is that it can uncover Alzheimer's mechanisms. There is a possibility that dementia is a metabolic disease. When a person gets less sleep neurons cannot recover themselves. Traffic noise and waking up too long act like some kind of nerve gas. Neurons can't remove their adjustment during the night. And that thing makes it possible for neurons to get tired. That means neurons have no time to load new fresh neurotransmitters during sleep. And that thing causes overactivity in neurons.  The neuron doesn't have time to remove its metabolic productions. This can be one reason for the deadly plague that is visible in Alzheimer patient's brains. That plaque isolates neurons from each other. There could be many things that can cause Alzheimer's. And one of them is that metabolic waste starts to fill the cell. There is a possibility that those metabolic produces d...

  The problem with exomoons. They are hard to detect.  Knowing that exomoons exist and confirming that are two different things. Exomoons are moons and dwarf planets orbiting exoplanets in distant solar systems. And when we make models about those distant solar systems, we use our solar system as the model. Most of the planets in our solar system have moons. So that means moons should be a very common thing in other solar systems.  The exception is gas giants that are very close to their star. Their moons will fall into the star or vaporize because of intensive heat. But in some visions, the gas giant can have a moon similar to Earth. And that kind of moon could be an excellent place for intelligent lifeforms.  The problem with exoplanets is that they are hard to find. And their moons are far more difficult to find. The exoplanet itself must change its trajectory. Or there must be some kind of changes in reflection. The exomoon must be so massive, that it can cause c...

    Gravitation without quantum part II I write about black holes in this text because the gravitational effect of the black hole is so extreme. Similar effects but in weaker form surround all gravitational centers.  We can think of a gravitational effect as a thing that depends on the spinning speed of the object. We can use black holes as an example. When black holes spin, they form a similar-looking structure as a top. Spinning object interaction with quantum fields looks like the situation where we spin a stick in the dough.  That spinning object makes the whirl-looking structure around it. Then the poles of that spinning object pull particles to its poles. There leaves the energy stick called a relativistic jet. So if antigravity exists it exists only at the point of the relativistic jet.  And that means antigravity could exist but its area is very small if we want to compare it with pulling gravitational effect.  In the case. That the black hole ...

 Cosmic fission tells about information about heavy elements.  Cosmic fission or natural fission in the cosmos tells about heavy elements near other stars. When heavy elements like uranium and radium split, they send radioactive radiation, like alpha, beta, and gamma particles. Alpha particles are positive helium ions.  Beta particles are fast electrons. And gamma-particle is electromagnetic radiation. Gamma rays are high-energy radiation that source in electron-positron annihilation and other high-energy reactions.  Temperature and impacting electromagnetic radiation affect fission and critical mass. When temperature rises a critical mass decreases. Critical mass means the point of the radioactive material mass where the fission reaction turns self-sustaining. When radioactive material's mass rises higher than critical mass, that turns fission self sustain.  "New research suggests cosmic fission may play a role in the formation of heavy elements. Analysis of ol...

     The sonic boom is a weapon.  The Soviet Union created many interesting aircraft designs. One of the interesting designs was the M-25 "Hell Reaper". The aircraft used a sonic boom as a weapon. The "Hell Reaper" didn't have any other weapons. Then the sonic boom. The idea was that low-flying supersonic aircraft could make sonic booms, that could destroy large areas. The reason why the "Hell Reaper" project closed was that there were no engines that could make that thing possible.  In some visions, the MiG-21, MiG-25, and MiG-31 were planned to be used in the same role as Hell Reaper. Today MiG-31 is used to shoot hypersonic Kh-47M2 Kinzhal missiles. To reach hypersonic speed the missile requires the MiG 31 carrier-launcher. The MiG-31 accelerates to its top speed and then launches the hypersonic missile.  Otherwise, Kinzhal cannot reach that hypersonic speed. The system is technically interesting, but it's more conventional and limited than expe...

     The story of the oldest pyramid in Indonesia got a new turnaround and controversy.  A long time before Egyptian sculptors made sphinx and pyramids nature made those places. For some reason those naturally formed, extraordinary-looking places turn holy. And then Sumerians and Egyptians started to make their pyramids. Those natural pyramids were holy places for people.  I know there will be a lot of "maybes" in this text. Indonesian archeologists said, that the Gunung Padang Pyramid is the oldest in the world. And that thing caused controversy. "We all know that Djoser's pyramid or Pyramid of Djoser in Egypt is the oldest". Or rather saying Djoser's pyramid is the oldest existing pyramid. There were some pyramids in Mesopotamia, maybe before Egypt.  South and Central American Indians built pyramids. But did Egyptians teach that skill to them?  And that thing can tell something about trade routes from the past. There are also suspected pyramids in An...

   New research links smoking to mental disorders.  Researchers have linked cigarettes with mental illness. But the question is does smoking itself cause mental problems? Or is smoking a cause of mental problems?  Nicotine itself stimulates neurons. And if that stimulation continues for a long time. That can cause changes in neural functions. When nicotine stresses neurons in the pleasure center in the brain they send neurotransmitters. That thing causes nicotine addiction.  Smoking and often nicotine dose causes those neurons to send neurotransmitters all the time. This thing causes non-normal stress in the brain. And if some brain area starts to operate abnormally way, that is not a good thing for brains.  "A new study indicates a link between smoking and an increased risk of mental illness. Utilizing data from the UK Biobank, the research suggests smoking may contribute to depression and bipolar disorder, with genetic factors playing a significant role. ...
