Global Warming and E=MC^2

Global warming has been emerged as a hot discussion topic. It gained its popularity in recent years through many international meetings and research papers. It has been introduced as an enemy of life and every scientist is there to support this label. Some people are telling that the sea will swallow our land because of global warming. Some others telling that the forests and the mango trees will get burned because of global warming. Another set of people says that the summer will kill entire living things in the earth because of global warming. Some others talk about climate changes, Carbon Dioxide, Methane, Greenhouse gases, anthropogenic climate blah blah blaaaaah!

In short, all are trying to blame each other and projected global warming as “killer” phenomena! It is sad that no one has bothered to think differently, understand why global warming has became a killer or to remediate global warming! Understand that no one is born as a criminal! The society made global warming as a criminal!

Keeping above fact in mind, I met Mr. Global Warming to understand him from another angle. The story came out was slightly shocking and moreover much interesting. The shocking fact that it is not a criminal! And the interesting fact is that it can be controlled very much by showing the text book of physics! Am I crazy? Let us check!

I said it is not a criminal because it is a natural effect. It doesn't have any intension to wipe out the life from earth. It doesn't even know what is life. Also, as others say, the air conditioners and refrigerators are not its father nor fossil fuels are its mother! Then how it took birth? The DNA test revels that it took birth from earth - like any other living thing! How? All knows that earth is always exposed to sharp sunlight and it is not capable to use fair and lovely for the sake of UV protection. So what happened? For years and years, twenty four hours a day, seven days a week, it is absorbing hot sunlight and plenty of Ultra Violet and Infra Red radiation. Just think - naturally the temperature of its atmosphere will go high. That is why I said it is not a criminal - it is a natural phenomena, and there is nothing to blame! Therefore PLEASE stop blaming anyone for global warming!

Now, second point - how to wave Physics text book to global warming and stop it? Very Very Simple! Clap the hands and open the text book and look for a theory called "Conservation of Energy". It says "Conservation of energy states that the total amount of energy in an isolated system remains constant, although it may change forms (for instance, friction turns kinetic energy into thermal energy).

Yes, "it may change forms" - that is the catch. What is global warming? It is just energy - to be more clear, it is "Heat" energy. We are struggling a lot to generate heat - by using heater, petrol, gas stove, thanthuri oven, grill, thermal station - the way we waste time and money to generate heat is many. At the same time, no one is realizing that global warming is just that heat what we are looking for! In simple language, stop all these exercises, think how to extract heat from global warming and start using that heat for the heat requirements in the house and country!

Extracting heat? How? This requires more research. We have already many means of extracting the heat (rather the radiation from sun) and convert it into other useful means and most of those devices start with "solar" in their name. That is one way of doing it. Consume as much as possible sunlight. I am sure, if we could do that, we can shut down all power stations around the world.

If this is not possible, or if still there is excess sunlight even after satisfying all power requirements, then we need alternate solution. The best suitable solution will be to design few "pass" stations or "relay" stations for this excess energy. The idea is to pump the excess energy we are receiving on earth either back to sun or to somewhere else in the universe. What we require here is an equipment which can take the radiation from sun, then pass it to a dish antenna kind of "concentrator or reflector" and beam it to a place outside the universe! A simple one will be a set of solar panels which will convert the excess energy from sun to electricity, pass it to a big heater coil placed in the focus of a reflector and the reflector facing the sky. In this station, the excess energy we receive from sun will be first converted to current and then to heat and then pushed out of earth's atmosphere through sky!

I am sure that placing this equipment in strategic places in earth will control the global warming in a very natural way. This is just one way of doing it. There are many other methods - think about converting excess energy (heat or radiation) to mass (stone or water) using the machine E = MC^2. This is interesting - "don't you agree"??

Remote Controlled Cow

I used to call google as "Guru" because whenever there is a question, I consult with google and in most cases; google is able to provide satisfactory answers. Also, all my IT, IT Enabled and IT Disabled friends will agree with the fact that India is leading in IT market because of google. If google was not there, most of the software professionals, including myself, can't think about writing even a single line of code! In short, google is not just guru, but much more than that!

Okie, as usual, today also I was chatting with Mr. Google Guru on various subjects and topics around me. On the way, we stuck up with one new idea of connecting powerful mechanical parts on human body and controlling them using human brain. This is because the human brain is very powerful and intelligent compared to any available computer, and human body is not that strong to utilize that brain. So, in short, instead of using a Motorola micro-controller in your fuzzy logic vacuum cleaner, we can hook up our own brain and....... sorry, you may not be able to understand that!

Let us come back to the matter. My questions to Mr. Google and the answers from Mr. Google were progressing as above. Suddenly I got hit by google with this article.

The article claims that insects can be "controlled" using a remote control. This is based on the fact that the brain signaling is happening using electric pulses (Is it binary/Boolean? TTL or CMOS?). Don't trust me? Check it Here! If that is the case, there is no doubt that the brain, thoughts and feelings can be controlled using an external electric source. And this is the fundamental theory used in controlling the insects.

I was thinking about the application of this achievement in our daily life. I have seen lot of cows and buffalos in our place, where people are struggling to control them using "mookku kayar" and ropes. Many times the activities and techniques used to control cows are exceeding the limits defined by animal rights law. Some cows and buffalos that are having social awareness used to react on such cases results in forcing the owner to go for bed rest.

Therefore, cows and buffalos are the primary community which is eligible to benefit from the remote control. As suggested in the article, we can remove the horns of cow and insert two electrodes to impose signals to brain. The equipment can be easily screwed on the head or left hanging on the neck. An array of solar panels can be attached to the cow for the power requirements. Or, alternately we can install a mini-thermal power station which will produce electricity using the heat from cow's body!

Now the advantages – keeping this “remote” in hand, cows are 100% under control. We can program the cow in such a way that it must wake up at 6:00 AM for milking. We can program the cow to eat only selected grass. We can program the cow to not to eat the kids of banana tree, coconut tree and jack fruit tree. We can disable the cow from milking to strangers. We can prevent the cow from making traffic blocks. We can ask the cow to go to shelter at sharp 6:00 PM. What else, we can update the firmware of cow to prevent it from unexpected hardware reboots, we can install patches and updates.....

"What do you think?"

Gravity,Cycle Tube and 3rd World War!

World War 3 for Energy? Yes! That is what I could conclude from recent deals with N Korea. Refer This! Same is expected with Iran also!

Yes, this time they were able to offer oil and settle the issue. But the big question in front of the world is not yet answered - once we drain out of oil, what we will do for energy? Nuclear, Naphtha or Coal? Then global warming will kill you! Solar? Bloody Bloody Expensive! Bio-gas from cow shit? Sorry, no enough number of cows to do that shit!

The question remains!

I should say, we are doing blunders by spending time, money and energy to research on these “alternate fuel” concepts. Moreover, the biggest mistake with us is, we will do research, find out the facts, write it on a paper or publish on a university website and then SLEEP on it! Then I have to come and kick off the thought process to see someone is making use of these findings and facts! This time also situation is the same.

The concern is an alternate energy source, and the solution is from lower primary school text books on geography and physics! First, let us open the physics text book and read how the thermal power stations are working. They manage to rotate a turbine connected to a generator using steam. read it here.

Now the question is "where I will get this much of steam?" or "Will my kitchen gas stove support generating this much steam?". Instead of running to kitchen, please open the geography text book and read about the earth, its atmosphere and the temperature distribution. Note down two points - The core of earth is very very hot! Up to 100,000 degree Celsius! Read it here. . Next point to note is that the temperature of atmosphere at 6-10 km is very cool! Down to -51 degree Celsius! Either believe me or read it here!

Oh...gotcha... this crazy guy is talking about "Geothermal station".. this is already available! Nothing new!

Sorry dear, please read till end. Understand that there are people who think out of the box, but they are not grown enough to think from the moon or mars (ref:my previous post). A geothermal station is an innovative implementation, but it sucks whole water from the under-earth and will finally end up in all the problems caused by bore wells! If such a station comes near to your house, you will not find water in your house well!

Now let me continue! We have seen the extreme high temperature in the core of earth and extreme low temperature above our head - atmosphere. Now, make a big heat-proof tunnel in circular shape (should look like a stressed version of cycle tire tube - hero or BSA can help!). Now, cut the tube somewhere, and insert the turbine attached with generator. Fix this portion (turbine and generator) on the ground. Ensure that it is fixed properly so that it can withstand the vibrations caused once the turbine start turning.

Now, dig the ground downwards looking for the core of earth. This can be identified by testing the temperature. While digging you may pass through a layer full of water and frogs (this is where the conventional "wells will terminate) - keep a raincoat with you to help yourself here. You may stop digging once you reach an area where the temperature is good enough to instant boil the water. Pull the tire tube till here.

Now, come out of the earth, and try to drag other end of the remaining tube vertically upwards. You may have to go 6-10 kilometers upwards, where you will meet low temperature sufficient to cool the steam instantly to water. Try to keep the tube there. You may hang it on the branch of a tree or set up a helium balloon above the tube to keep it floating at that height.

Our job is over. Now come to earth, clap the hands and fill water in the tube. Look at that! The water has gone down to the underground portion of the tube (Thanks to Sir Isaac Newton for inventing gravity!). At the moment it reaches the core, it is getting boiled and becoming steam due to the extreme temperature, getting expanded and forced to get out of the tube through the other end! Oh, on the other end what is happening? It is going up to the sky... and getting converted back to water due to extreme low temperature! Once it is water, the gravity pulls it down and it is going back to the core and repeating the cycle!

We could see the steam is cycling through the tube and it forces our turbine to turn! Got stunned? Get up and look at the generator! It is pumping a lot of electricity! Eurekaaaa!

All our energy needs are satisfied here without causing any kind of environmental hazards, without causing global warming, without begging for oil, without smoke, without radiation, without dam collapse - all by using gravity and natural force!

Moreover no world war for oil and energy! Bring peace to life!

Tip: You may use a mini version of this to replace the refrigerator cum heater cum oven for household use. Instead of therm-o-stat, use a "height-o-stat" to adjust the height of the food shelf. (Push down to cook, pull up to freeze!)

Note: Remember to fill the digg-ed ground with soil. Else some kids will chase some ball and fall inside.

Why Men Can't Fly?

During the school days, we are forced to study lot of mistakes as part of our school syllabus. Once after coming out of school, if we take some time and think, we will realize that many lessons we have studied in the class are big blunders.

I am realizing this when I started thinking about the flight of human. We have learned that human being is "flying" and the first "flight" is conducted by Wright Brothers. I have also believed that "humans" are "flying" and was very much proud of it.

Recently, I have also got a chance to "fly" and I went to airport thinking that I can "fly". I thought that air port is a place where they will make people capable of flying. As I have seen lot of flies and birds flying around, I was under an impression that human body will be fixed with a pair of nice wings with an engine in the air port.

But, after entering the airport, I have realized that the people are not flying, but they just sit on a plane, which is capable of flying. I got disappointed and understood what kind of blunders we are learning in the schools!

Here comes the little thought, why can't we correct this mistake from the root? Root? Does it mean we have to correct all the text books published throughout the world? No - this is not Kerala Syllabus to correct the text books! We will correct only one place - the way we fly!

Confused? Read this till the end and then take a tea break. Sip the tea and think - why can't we fly like a bird? The fully functional prototype is there in front of us in the form of flies, bees and birds! Instead of adopting the same technique, I don't know why people are inventing "aircrafts" and "planes"!

As usual, the idea is very simple - fix two wings behind the human body. Drive it with a stepper motor controlled by a microprocessor or matchbox computer!

To enhance the system, we may collaborate with some washing machine manufacturer and implement fuzzy logic too!

I am 200% sure that this is possible and this will work - if such a fat bee can fly just by waving those small and thin wings, it should not be a big deal to fly a man weights less than 100 kg weight by using a six foot wing! The only reason what I can think of is no one is trying to develop this way of flying and none of the government are supporting such research by providing funds.

Once this is developed, the advantages are huge.
- No airports required to take off
- No sound pollution as the engines is small
- No air pollution if we could integrate electric engines
- No signaling required - it is just like walking on the road
- No bookings required
- No tickets required to travel
- No fuel surcharges or taxes or air port usage fee required
- No late departure, road traffic conditions will not affect travel plans

In short, we can stop running such big aircrafts. This will make lot of savings, improve commutation comfort, thus more business deals will happen and finally will end up in increasing the GDP!
