DNA can be the next-generation computer.



The first DNA computer-stored data and solved problems. And that new computer gives many fascinating possibilities for R&D work with the new era of computing. In visions, the bacteria can host DNA-based computers. And those DNA-based computers can be part of the microprocessors. DNA-based computers can revolutionize things like portable electronics. And robotics. 

The DNA-based computers require lots of work to come to our desktops. DNA-based computers can be effective, even if they are small. The DNA's ability to store data is very high. And that makes those systems suitable to control nanorobots. 

"DNA computing, also known as biomolecular computing, is a cutting-edge interdisciplinary field that harnesses the unique properties of DNA molecules for computational purposes. At its core, it relies on the inherent ability of DNA to store and process vast amounts of information in parallel, offering a potential alternative to traditional silicon-based computing systems."

"At the heart of DNA computing lies the remarkable ability of DNA molecules to store information in the form of sequences of nucleotides—adenine (A), thymine (T), cytosine (C), and guanine (G). These nucleotides can be arranged in specific sequences, analogous to the binary code used in digital computing. However, DNA offers a much denser storage medium, capable of storing immense amounts of data in a tiny volume." (https://neuroject.com/dna-computing/)

"You won't believe where scientists have found the new material they need to build the next generation of microprocessors. Millions of natural supercomputers exist inside living organisms, including your body. DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) molecules, the material our genes are made of, have the potential to perform calculations many times faster than the world's most powerful human-built computers. DNA might one day be integrated into a computer chip to create a so-called biochip that will push computers even faster. DNA molecules have already been harnessed to perform complex mathematical problems." (https://computer.howstuffworks.com/dna-computer.htm)

The newly discovered brain cells fire electric impulses. And if researchers can manipulate that cell using a DNA computer, it can communicate with microchips. The ability to control those electric signals also makes the DNA computer control engineered bacteria or other small-size biorobots. The electric signals make proteins in the bacteria cell contract and lengthen. And that thing is possible to use as a biorobot. 

DNA-based computers are tools that can control regular-looking computers. They can also operate as computers that control nano-size machines. The DNA computer can control systems using miniature microchips as the data mediums. The DNA sends information to the microchip. And then, the system can interact with each other. 

The thing is that DNA can control computers or artificial DNA can control genetically engineered cells. In the most exotic visions, the DNA can change the cell's form from bacteria to a neuron. Then back to bacteria. The neuron can boost computer operations. Then the system can turn those neurons back to the bacteria when they are not needed anymore.

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...
