The hunt for extrasolar planets using the Hubble Telescope is hotter than ever and the
results are perplexing. After analyzing 180 000 stars in the central bulge of our galaxy, the conclusion is: about
6 000 000 000 solar systems in Milky-Way have at least one planed as big as Jupiter.
Note, however, the results follow just a brief investigation, meaning, a thorough analysis may increase the number
of stars in our galaxy having planetary systems dramatically. The data is coming from NASA, and it sure widens our
Global Picture!

 Antigravity appears to be the golden dream of our
days--this is, if you read the available SF literature of the past 50 years. Amazingly, our civilization is very
close to actually see antigravity implemented in technology. However, in order to enhance antigravity to use it in
practical applications we need plenty of energy in strong, mobile, and compact power sources which ... we do not
have.
The first and the most obvious question is: "What could we achieve with that great antigravity technology?
What good does it bring to us?" Well, the sad truth is, not much. Interstellar travel is not performed
with antigravity engines, despite the hopes expressed by many past and present Science Fiction writers. We need a
lot more than antigravity in order to reach the stars--way, way more!
The only way we could achieve interstellar transport technology is if we discover means to annihilate:
1. mechanical space
2. inertial (mechanical) mass
The antigravity technology will bring us a little closer to understanding the Subatomic Universe, and that is very
good. However, as mentioned, the true important problem is ENERGY. No matter what new, future, advanced
technologies our civilization is going to discover, a cheap and very strong source of power is going to be, for
many thousands of years, the most important discovery.
The good news is, there is plenty of power--even electrical--around us; the bad news is, we have to find it! Now,
the new question is: "Is it that difficult to step over the existing mechanical physics, and to discover
new and more powerful sources of energy?" Well, it depends very much on us. You see, for some period of
time, our Civilization has evolved as the Egyptian one. The world was ruled during those great days by the
Pharaoh, the offspring of the AMON RA (AMON or AMEN means sun-God; RA is the first and the only name given to our
sun).
Incredibly, those dear parents of ours have started their civilization by chopping the stone, and they ended it
exactly the same, 3000 years later! For 3000 years our civilization was halted at a stand-still. No evolution!
Sure, they did built those pyramids, and the Great Pyramid is still a great technical wonder of our civilization,
but the Egyptian lack of social development, for 3000 years, is the most phenomenal aspect!
Some say the Egyptians used antigravity technology to build their pyramids, and we are not going to deny that. It
is possible they did--by themselves, or helped by THE OTHERS. However, that is not important when we think of the
Egyptian civilization---well, not very much. We should learn something from those incredibly
"conservative" old Egyptians. 
The idea is, we need to dare to explore technical avenues that are today the realm of Science Fiction. "Aha!"
the critics would cry, "So there is where you were heading!" Well, things are this way, dear
friends: our actual science is build on "mechanical" theories which simply do not take into
consideration antigravity, as if it doesn't exist. In fact, not only antigravity is here, among us, but no atom
could exist without it--not even us!
We will not insist on atom's structure and antigravity, because these subjects are presented in Peasant
Ambassador and in MERCY, and in our future SF books. For now, just try to imagine what it means to our science the
discovery of the antigravity vector: more than half of all physical laws we know up to now would have to be
reformulated. All previous scientific experiments would have to be reevaluated. Sooner or later, that
technological revolution is going to become reality, because that is natural, social, and technological trend; in
other words, that is evolution.
Anyway, more interesting seems to be another topic: "Who will develop the antigravity technology in the
near future on our planet?" Antigravity, and many other advanced technologies, require that we take a
sharp corner in our scientific mode of thinking--very sharp. There is no place for antigravity in the science we
study today, but it is here. It takes just few years of intense, serious study to unveil it, and that may happen
in many countries today. The true beauty is, following the antigravity technology, there are many other avenues of
advanced technologies just waiting to be explored, and exploited. However, like it or not, all those great
discoveries are dealing with what we name the Subatomic Universe, and Primary Energies.
Natural antigravity is explained in Peasant Ambassador, and everybody can read about it. Further from there,
people need to do some research, and then to think seriously about what is missing in our physical laws. Try to
imagine that all we have discovered in terms of theorems and physical laws up to now is limited
"mechanically" to our planetary system, system of coordinates.
The really bad part is, most of the Scientists today, and almost all those who became and will become the great
managers of our civilization are capable, practical people, realistic, and ... they cannot see further from the
vast horizon of their office desk. Things happen, again, exactly as they did during the Egyptian civilization:
those Egyptians could have reached the planets of our solar system 2000 years ago, but they preferred, instead, to
develop their incredible techniques in chopping the stone ...
Yeah, the message is, all those advanced technologies are close, well within our reach, but the great problem is
our mentality: is still rooted into Paleolithic! Did you think about it?
