ASML is the leading supplier of advanced deep UV or EUV, stepper machine maker, with more than 50 versions of their machine, they eventually overtook Nikon & Canon. ASML also the leading equipment supplier for TSMC they kept pushing Moores law so that smaller IC features could be realized with each new generation of highly complex machine, hosting dozens of processors & billions of lines of code.
Gun Problems are a People Issue (Who) & Have Nothing to do with the Guns
Cars are dangerous when driven by a bad driver or poorly skilled drivers & the same can be said of guns or knives or swords or anything sharp or dangerous, including toxic chemicals like gasoline in a handheld can or spray bottle. Government laws to stop "this or that gun" are never going to address the social, psychological or cultural problems that are causing "mass shootings" People need to feel like they are not being betrayed by their country & we have a history in America of outsourcing jobs & insourcing foreign works & marginalizing the middle class with inflation while billionaires become wealthier through merger & acquisition.
Glock Perfection Pistols are Durable & Reliable

| "Saturn V" Rocket Launch / Image via NASA Coolest Vehicle Ever Made in America |
Sure chemical rockets are cool, a combustion engine turbine nozzle releasing millions of joules of energy within 600 seconds to propel millions of pounds of rocket & payload into outer space, but they can only carry as much fuel as the fuel tanks can hold & most of the rocket vehicle a giant fuel tank that can only be scaled so much.

Space X falcon 9 for example, has an exterior shell about 1 mm thick which is thinner than the shell to body ratio for a common aluminum pop can. Rocket fuel tanks also have to hold pressurized cryogenic fluids without failures & most often made of a thin aluminum tank mandrel wrapped with epoxy soaked (prepreg) carbon fiber bundles in overlapping geometrically offset layers for added strength, by a figment winding robot, like the one Toyota Lex us used to make the carbon fiber dive-shaft in the LFA, see "Making of the LFA on Youtube"
I have watched a lots of rocket launches & rocket launch failures on YouTube (<-click) & have never been present at a really big rocket launch like the amazing Saturn V or Falcon 9 more recently. My dad & I started launching hobby rockets powered by solid rocket motors when I was a young child.

Toy Rockets with Tiny Solid Rocket Motors (<- link to YouTube example)
Meg & I took our "Big Bertha" rock & some motors & an igniter wire system & fired it at 60 acres in Redmond for fun a few years ago, after my Dad died, to celebrate his life & some nostalgic memories. I tried finding this video on my YouTube channel to no avail // confident I made it using several cameras, probably on my old broken iMac 5K or its 4TB backup drive -- I have a new file management technique since my new iMac (last Intel Model) came with a tiny 256GB fast SSD -- not nearly big enough for larger files used in video editing, so I record with my iPhone clips, import then into iMovie, edit, export the 4K file, upload it to Youtube, then delete the local files off my phone & computer to conserve limited SSD data storage space. Small storage spaces locally remind me of small fuel tanks on rockets -- lol
Finite FuelTank Rockets
I assure you that the fuel mass paradox of rockets & their general lack of reusability or long life as a vehicle, think less like a firework & more like a Toyota Hi-Lux Pickup that runs for decades & millions of miles of heavy abuse. Old single use rockets were like a super car in terms of cost, that is driven once for a few hours & then destroyed & scraped. Not only finite, chemical fuels are a relative dead end because with 8 billion people we can deplete Earth of its feedstocks & at a rate that vastly eclipses the rates of formation of those resources in nature by natural processes that takes eons to slowly go forward with entropy reversing life development in the biosphere of Earth! Nuclear energy offers us a better energy platform for powerful deep space rockets that go much further than any chemical rocket.
Fission & Fusion Rockets
Nuclear fission & nuclear fusion powered rockets have much higher energy density than chemical rockets because nuclear energy makes use of atomic processes that are far more energetic than chemical reactions, both in terms of net total energy output but also in terms of energy density. Consider a common nuclear fuel bundle pellet of lightly enriched uranium dioxide. It contains more energy than an olympic swimming pool full of diesel fuel.
They stack these pellets into zirconium clad tubes, assembled into bundles that are then installed as arrays of bundles & control rods in the core of nuclear fission reactors, the core bundle mass & density used to create enough neutron density to sustain a nuclear fission chain reaction, which releases immense amounts of heat energy over many dozens of months, while less than 4% of the fuel energy actually converted to heat to boil water to turn turbine generators to make electricity.
This means spend nuclear fuel from common 2nd Gen. fission energy reactors, of which there are many hundreds operating daily around the world, still very energetic & can be burned up as new fuel in newer 4th Gen. IFR style reactors or similar with much better fuel economy, enhanced neutron economy, superlative walk away safety automatic operation & scalable designs from as small as a shipping container MMR like the nuclear reactors on aircraft carriers & submarines to larger SMR plants with several to tens of modular units designed to match local loads with scalable future development & added capacity by simply adding a few more units & connecting them up.
Even the Best Combustion Limited
Let me give you an example. Cryogenic liquid oxygen or LO2 & cryogenic liquid hydrogen or LH2 are one of the most potent chemical rocket fuel combinations & the combustion of hydrogen in oxygen produces only non-toxic water vapor as an emission, making this kind of rocket the cleanest burning of them all; similar to the concentrated hydrogen peroxide decomposition thruster that blows H202 past a silver mesh screen at high pressure where the silver Ag helps catalytically decompose the hydrogen peroxide into O2 & high temperature 740 C, high pressure steam.
The original Bell Rocket Belt could only fly for 21 seconds while consuming 5 gallons or 18 liters of concentrated hydrogen peroxide. Development of the pack at Bell Aerospace started as early as 1953 in the works of Wendell F. Moore. Human body a very unstable platform & the rocket motor setup in the Bell pack generates 280 pounds-forge or 1.25kN or 127kgf thrust. The pack weighed 125 lb or 57 kg. Moore had an accident that broke his kneecap in 1961, so Engineer Harold Graham took over development testing. On April 20th, 1961 the first 13 seconds long free flight near Niagara Falls airport reached 4 feet or 1.2 meter height & flew smoothly forward at 10km/h for a distance of 108 feet or ~35 m /
Simple Powerful Rockets
The famous 1960's rocket belt backpack rocket thruster system uses this 100% hydrogen peroxide pressure fed into a set of articulated silver catalyst rocket motors with a controllable throttle setup that enables the rider controller to vary the pitch of the thrust & rate of thrust why flying the jet pack. This system very low mass for its power output & only recently eclipsed by liquid ion battery electric ducted fan wearable helicopter & compact body worn turbine jet engines powered by kerosene or jet fuel or diesel.

Control with the aid of the lever is somewhat rough; for finer control the pilot uses a handle on the left lever. This handle governs the tips of the jet nozzles. The tips (jetavators) are spring-opposed and can, with the aid of the flexible thrusts, be slanted forward or back. The pilot inclines the handle forward or back and slants both nozzle tips at the same time to fly straight. If pilot must turn, he turns handle, to slant the nozzles in opposite directions, one forward, another back, turning the pilot and the pack around its axis. By the combination of different motions of lever handles the pilot can fly any way, even sideways, to turn, rotate on the spot, etc. The pilot can control his rocket pack's flight differently, by changing the center of gravity of his body. For example, if we bend the legs and raise them to the stomach, the center of gravity will move forwards, and pack will be inclined and it will also fly forward. Such a control of pack, with the aid of the body, is considered incorrect and is characteristic of novices. Most experienced pilot Bill Suitor asserts that during the flight it is necessary to hold legs together and straight, and to control flight by the pack's levers and handles. This is the only way to learn to competently pilot the pack and to confidently carry out complex aerial maneuvers. The throttle handle is on the right lever. In the closed position it completely shuts the fuel regulator valve, stopping fuel from reaching the engine. Turning the handle counterclockwise, the pilot increases the engine thrust. During servicing of the pack with compressed nitrogen the handle is held in the closed position with a shear pin for safety. The pilot's timer is on the same handle. Since the pack has fuel for only for 21 seconds of flight, it is critical to know when the pack will run out of fuel, so that the pilot can safely land before his tanks are empty. Before the flight the timer is set for 21 seconds. When the pilot turns the handle for the takeoff, the timer begins counting and will give second-by-second signals to a buzzer in the pilot's helmet. In 15 seconds the signal becomes continuous, telling the pilot that it is time to land. A New Rocket Belt Developed Circa 2000, Obsession & Murder Follow |
It featured increased fuel stock and increased power, and the maximum duration of flight was increased to 30 seconds. It was flown on 12 June 1995 by Bill Suitor. The partnership broke down soon thereafter, with Stanley accusing Barker of fraud and Barker taking the RB-2000 to an unknown location. A year later Stanley successfully sued Barker, who was ordered to return the RB-2000 to Stanley and pay 10 million dollars in costs and damages.
When Barker refused to deliver, Stanley kidnapped him and held him captive in a box, from which Barker managed to escape after eight days. Stanley was arrested in 2002 for the kidnapping, and served an eight years sentence. Wright was murdered at his home in 1998, and the crime remains unsolved. The rocketbelt was never recovered. The story is recounted in the book The Rocketbelt Caper: A True Tale of Invention, Obsession and Murder by Paul Brown, and fictionalized in the 2008 movie Pretty Bird.
Worm Hole Shortcut
Making use of an Einstein-Rosen bridge to warp across spacetime in a worm hold not only the subject of science fiction writers & SCI-FI movies, but also a physical real possibility for future space development. Even at the speed of light it would take a spacecraft 600,000 years to reach Andromeda by direct line of sight, so we need a faster way there & worm hole travel at faster than light travel speeds the only way to do so within the finite constraints of a natural human lifetime of the astronauts doing such a mission.
Quantum Entanglement Communication Needed
We need much more advanced technology as a human civilization to actually leverage worm holes in space to help space exploration missions go further faster in a bigger way & that leaves a communications cutoff issue such that it would be impractical to communicate with Earth from that craft unless quantum entanglement communication systems that perform spooky action at a distance are utilized via applied quantum physics technologies not invented, yet developed or commercialized in a big enough way, just outside a few early experiments with satellites in lower earth orbit communicating with ground stations with faster than light communication speeds by entangled q bits pair entangled on Earth, then one kept on Earth while the other flown to space aboard a rocket launched satellite into space, where if one toggled rapidly between 1 & 0 on earth, the same exact sequence observed on the one in space, without any obvious RF or Light or other physically explicable phenomenon connecting them.

Prayer Healing & Restorative
 |
| Have a look & you choose your position // |
I am not here to judge you or tell you what to believe or not. I personally choose to have faith in Christ Jesus as a Christian & believe thereby in showing all other people, & nature, love, benevolence, kindness, respect, honor, humility, empathy, patience. For me Christianity teaches morality & ethics that I try my hardest to apply to my thinking & choices, though like everyone else I am not perfect, do not have all he answers & can only make a free will agency based choice to have faith in God & in Christ Jesus as my Lord & Savior. Now that we have that out of the way, lets examine a simple dependency tree.
Prayer very similar to a kind of mindfulness medication with positive affirmations & praise & glorification of good things & of things pleasing to other people & probably God if you like me believe that God exists, a good bet based on Blaise Pascal's wager in the image in this posting.

Science Confirms Positive Prayer Effects //
Empirical scientific facts are not faith, they are evidence based analytical conclusions derived from experimental data collecting real facts about reality in experiments designed to isolate the variable of interest from noise & bias of the scientist or experiment designer or technician running the experiment. See, we all as people have a cognitive bias, wanting the outcome of the experiment to go one way more than the other. We all have preferences & are able to pick "favorites" & this creates bias that would ruin the objectivity & pollute the data in science if personal bias included in experimental design & results & data analysis. Invariably because people are biased & often funding for science comes from political spheres where rhetoric & corruption are normal, the most extreme forms of ideological bias, some noise always going to create error or inaccuracy in data collection, by that from flaw in the tools or data processing or analytics of the resulting data or writing about it, there is only a way to approach minimum error or to reduce flaw down to a tiny amount, sadly there will always be some error or flaw because of Heisenbergs uncertainty principle. At small enough scales measuring with a STEM or scanning tunneling electron microscope, it because difficult to take real imaging of whats happening, like throwing cars at other cars to collect data about the target cars // using some cleaver applied physics theory, very novels tools can image subatomic phenomena if several things are assumed to be true, that may not be clearly tested as such empirically. So to study if prayer helps people, you have to look at large data, meta data & use the real world & big aggregate trends about people, social science & human mass media, to infer or make inferential deductions about why 9 out of 10 people alive worldwide believe in God ? What does faith do for people if so many people willing choose to believe things that they cannot find actual science facts to support, things that requires someone to take a mental leap of faith ? I don't know, I blindly choose to believe in God because faith makes me feel better & treat other people better & gives me a moving goal towards greater excellence in all ways, something nothing else in the world offers ..
Faith & Science to Coexist Peacefully
So faith only confirms things that science slowly helps people learn & as we go deeper into quantum mechanics we keep confirming things from Faith with science. In fact science & faith can peacefully coexist. Faith is about stories of the Human Origin & Science will help to validate these interdimensional realities sometime in the future //
Mindfullness & Meditation
Taking your minds focus to a place of peaceful tranquility by deliberately sitting quietly & focusing on a positive edifying healing restorative kind loving or other uplifting ideas. How can you ever have time if you never take a little time to take care of your mind ? Mental & emotional health are part of your overall health & you need to have some personal time to reflect & or meditate & process whats going on in your life & where you are heading as a person, who you are becoming with the choices you are making every moment of every day.
