Submarines, Zorbs and Other Machines
..
Submarine rescue is being improved but the delay time to deploy small subs to rescue them is up to 72 hours from planes or boats. Innovators like John W. say a better solution may be to boost the minisubs to orbit and the wait time if two were put in orbit half way round the world would be just 15 minutes max. Other rescue machines could also be put in orbit like dropsondes they use to research hurricanes without so much risk, this is currently a nonstop trip for weeks by airplane and they often reach the storm late.


They have the air pumped bubbles where the rider rolls down the hill at all out speed. This is like a safe sort of sled in the winter and you go down the hill picking up steam without risk of hitting the trees (you bounce off) and with water unlike a sled, you don't drown, it has air inside. Zorb. An improvement is believed to be a machine for the rider so they would be always right side up inside the wheel, and if more inside the wheel they would be more shielded and able to go off a mountain or a waterfall in safety and with the weight below it at higher speed and a motor and a bit of deflation it would also climb back up the hills. One luxury option that's been devised with a machine like this would be a helicopter lift built in that would also first perhaps have a lighter than air boost of the machine and then lift off for another zoom down from the top. Like the helicipter motorcycles they have this would be better than climbing back up, and-we're with the weather woman when she's live! If there were avalanches others envision that this is also avalanche proof because it's a pressurized bubble so the snow is outside the machine and with the snow stopped and an outer shield and enough air pressure maintained by the seal, reduced risk for more avalanche is achieved if they can just roll down hill some more so they can blast their way out (if sensors see that it's safer down slope) with more good blasts. No doubt a good avalanche suit is thought to be just a machine like this that's worn like a coat and outfit that has rapid weight loss or win and also rolls on the inside so the wearer would be right side up while they wait for the avalanche to stop.

Sled shields, modular bumpers have been devised that clamp on sleds may save many lives.



Have you seen moon boots? One of my relatives bought moon boots for christmas, it has two beams in L shape and a strong spring between them so the wearer jumps up in the air and some people can even spin around and land upside round the world! Eventually they may have these with rotors to stabilize while they spin around. And they could also stabilize if they had big wide shoes at the ground like the moon boost of 69 with a machine to sense if you're right side up. I've heard of GE for biology that would cool you in the heat as you walk by with more shade, moisture, or even waving the leaves, and you always might rebound if your lawn was GE! Even so you wouldn't fall wearing moon boots, you're always at 900,000 per hour!!
