Drones to Robotics?
Much of what we are terming new has been around for some time in one form or another, but the applications are perhaps newer rather than new? Drones are improving all the time and plans for deployment in the Mars mission as a helicopter have been suggested, while back on Earth the police and search and rescue are using them with effective search and observation results!
Robotics, as in Androids are also improving but no suggestion as yet for sending into Space has been made? On the industrial front, they will perhaps in years to come have a great advantage with helping older folks and young children and the disabled as in both cases!
There are many military applications for both, at this time many poorer nations will probably opt for drones over that of Robots or Androids for border patrols and police work? Drones are much cheaper to deploy than helicopters, unless a large area needs covering or someone in trouble needs to be rescued?

The North-Korean Crises. Two.
The size of my Button?
It is most pathetic that a world leader would reduce themselves to the deaths of 30,000,000 million people over the size of their nuclear buttons on their desks? Spineless heartless bastards, who only care for their prestige and for nothing else?
The western world is telling lies about N-Korea, while it is lying to its own people about what it claims it cannot really do? But this does not excuse the limited means that both or all have to start a devastating war!
The dangers lay with the spread of nuclear radioactivity from the far-east to around the world, many nations will be effected and those who are already struggling with financial and medical costs will not be enabled to cope!

Military transport Aircraft. Part-Two.
Enter the Giants.
The United States have a choice of three heavy transports from the C-141 Star lifter, C-17 Globe master and the enormous C-5 Galaxy. This has proven invaluable for them as a world superpower over the years.
Initially the Soviet Union and now the Russian Federation to have developed their three types, but all from one manufacturer Antonov with the An-22, An-124 Ruslan and the An-224 Mirya (Dream).
Both superpowers have also the back up of their own large civilian commercials such as the Boeing 747-2/400F' and the Ilyushin IL-89/96.
These dominate heavy lifting capability around the world, in the moving of missile systems, radars, and extra warheads, The Boeing 747-400 and the Russian Antonov An-224 were adopted and developed for both the NASA Space shuttle and the Soviet Buran to piggy back between landing and relaunching.
Most of the aircraft are capable of the movement of between 150 to 250 fully laden combat troops, with essential equipment from vehicles to artillery. Apart from Surface to Surface missiles, there is of course the need to move medium range mobile carriers for Nuclear ICBMs.
Today some of these aircraft also work with the United Nations in medical and food relief to disaster zones.

Freezers. Part-Two.
Refrigeration.
Technology has moved on with the CFC being removed from the gas that operates to cause coldness, but not all freezers are designed to produce ice. Many today are just to keep fruit and vegetables cool for long term storage.
The problem of re-freezing remains a danger and nothing as yet has been discovered to do this, but time will bring in new ideas. Refrigeration is not just for food and flowers, but also for organ transplantation and many other medical uses.
Some people even pay a lot of money to be kept frozen after death in the belief that one day a cure for terminal illness will be found to bring them back to life?

Air Frieghters. Part-Three.
Enter the Jet Age.
The 1950's was the start of real cargo flying, this was for two reasons the first being that aircraft were now much larger and second the Jet age had began.
Many World War-II aircraft continued to be in demand such as the C-47/C-46 and there civil versions DC-3/4. Many were to find their way to the outback and remote location workings in Australia, Canada, Africa and South-Central Americas.
From the outset of the British Comet, French Caravelle and early Boeing and McDonnell-Douglas aircraft cargo could now be moved much faster on trans-ocean crossings. Meat, flowers and medical goods were able to arrive fresh in the same 24-hour period.
