US SPACE FORCE & SPACE MYSTERIES



SOURCE:  US SPACE FORCE


  • The US Space Force wants to track "abnormal observables" in Earth orbit that are of unknown origin.  Here are some key facts:
  • New mission of the USW Space force is to identify and track mysterious objects that are in Earth orbit
  • Most of the time those objects are from other nations
  • The group will identify, work to understand, track and maintain custody of the objects, according to a document released by the US Space Force
  • The purpose is to ensure the safety of space vehicles flying in the Earth's orbit
  • They want to know where the vehicles are in real-time, how they got there, who owns them, what their potential capabilities are and who the operator is
  • A lot of advanced technologies will be applied to this, including radar systems, infrared and optical sensors, radio frequency monitoring, intelligence community information and data and images from space weather stations
  • The USSF has also hired several private companies to develop new technologies for the effort.

  • Road Bot has been developed to fix Britain's potholed roads.  Here's what we know:
  • It was developed by British scientists

  • It finds and fixes potholes using AI
  • Developed by Robotiz3d
  • It's self-driving
  • It selects measurement data to analyze the geometry of the potholes
  • There is also a unique prediction algorithm that predicts road conditions and prioritizes preventive maintenance of roads
  • Expectation is that Road Bots will reduce time, costs, CO2 emissions and material waste
  • With extreme weather conditions increasing in Britain 2 million pothole fixes are expected to increase yearly
  • Thanks to Road Bots' cutting-edge tech, not only will time, cost and CO2 emissions be lessened, but Britons will have a smoother ride.

  Surfing With No Waves Needed, Anytime of Year                                                                                Source:  Awake Surfboard Can Hit 36 MPH Sweden-based Awake has developed a powerful electric surfboard that can hit speeds of 36 mph.  It can accelerate from 0 to 30 mph in just 4 seconds.  The Ravik S 22 electric surfboard is able to surf on any body of water any time of year including on snowy winter days.  And, it doesn't need waves to surf! It provides an extreme surfing ride, developed by an award-winning surfboard company. Tech Specs The e-board is powered by a 12-kW brushless motor.  The motor has three speed settings and three throttle sensitivity modes.  It has a wireless speed control system that cuts throttle response time down to .02 seconds.  The quick response time makes it much easier for the surfer to time turns and jumps.  A 1.9-kW battery provides a ride time of 15 to 20 minutes. That version of the board is priced at $15,000. An extended
