The Infinite World

Are you happy with life as it is ? Well, next time when you are down, just remember that it's all in your mind ! You can control your mind, but often than not, many of us are not conscious of our state of mind ! It determine how you want to be and what to be and when you want to be in your desired state. The mind is unique, it is not a physical asset like the brain, it is like a invisible force or spirit.

Every time a jet like a A380 or a B777 flies, a great amount of energy is released for hours during such flights. Can we harness such energy to power the flight itself ? We are just mixing the fuel and air and creating a reaction to push the plane forward. If the trust from such a jet can be feed into another machine which also pushes the plane forward at the same time, it will probably enable the plane to fly faster and consuming less fuel. Imagine the amount of energy expanded with the number of planes flying all around the world. Human are just burning fuel which can never be recovered!

If NASA had flown up to Apollo 27 till 1976, we could be already on Mars by now! The money spent on Cold War could have been well spent on exploring the unknown, but they were spent on fighting a psychological war ! 

Imagine what would the Canadian aviation industry be like if the CF-105 Arrow has gone into production in the late 50s ? Why was it cancelled ? What if 100 of them were built for the RCAF ? 

Why do countries spend so much on their military? Just 1 simple reason - to guard against the evil mind of others ! Invasion is due to the mind turning evil, people want to control others, to void others doing the same to them. It's such a pathetic ideology, but human do not have a choice. The mind all work individually and are not cooperative at all. It's something that no human can do to stop themselves and others from becoming bad. The mind can be just illogical and will go crazy anytime. The mind is powerful and weak at the same time, changes all the time.

Singapore ordered 2 more Type 218 submarine from Germany, taking the total for the Type to 4. The very first one will be delivered in 2020, replacing all the older Swed built submarine one by one. Hopefully, they will have some land attack capability eventually. The next announcement would probably be for a bigger LPD or LPH with a a full deck.

Space X next launch is scheduled for Monday, 15 May 2017. Keeping up the momentum is important for the company now and for the industry. It's a technology that human have yet to master, it has to reach a stage similar to taking a casual car ride. Ya, maybe a bit far fetch with our currently technology level. Human need to venture out of this crystal ball, the universe is out there for a purpose. 

It was very close to sub 2 for Eliud Kipchoge, closer than most people could imagine! It is a difficult run, the speed that he ran for 2 hour 25 second is crazy! He is indeed King of the marathon and will be for awhile, do not think that anyone can come close at the moment. But it would be quite awhile before anyone can do it in a real marathon race, beating the 2 hour mark.   Maybe another 3-5 years, this is good guess ?

Despite being a amateur runner, Yuki Kawauchi has made remarkable achievements. He just tied the world record for the most sub 2:12 on 7 May 2017, Sunday at the Prague marathon. He also holds all the world records for all categories from sub 2:13 to sub 2:19. You can read this interesting article at Japanrunningnews.blogspot.
