Small weapons like insects can destroy humanity

Although only about the size of an insect or smaller than a hair, this small military robot is being developed by military forces, with the power equivalent to hundreds of tons of TNT.

According to the Daily Mail, in a newly released book, Louis del Monte, a physicist from the state of Minnesota, USA, warned that the micro weapon , or nano-weapon , could lead to such a war. the most cruel world, causing humanity to die.

Mr. del Monte also said that this is not a distant threat that could happen at the end of this century. Del Monte evaluated modern micro-weapons even more dangerous than conventional nuclear weapons.

Will nuclear weapons no longer be the most dangerous killing weapon?

The US, Russia and China are all investing billions of dollars to study this weapon, Mr. del Monte wrote in his book "Nano Weapons: The Threat Increasing for Humanity , " by the University. Nebraska released.

Mr. del Monte said that this is the weapon that makes nations plunge into a deadly arms race in the 21st century. "Nano weapons are a military weapon that is more likely to destroy humanity. This is absolutely not a theoretical issue. "

Nano weapons are smaller than an insect-like hair and robot can be programmed for sensitive tasks such as poisoning, polluting food and water sources, according to CNBC.

The weapon weighs only 2.3kg, as a wallet can even destroy a high-rise building.

Mr. Del Monte also predicts, the rise of the killer nano robot , which is difficult to detect. Terrorists may soon own this technology in the next 30 years based on the black market.

The US, Russia, and China are thought to be spending billions of dollars to develop ultra-small nano weapons.

"The catastrophes are thought to destroy humanity such as meteorite collisions, super volcanic eruptions, practically very rare occurrences, the rate of 1 / 50,000 or even lower , " said del. Monte wrote in the book.

"Clearly, nano weapons are even more destructive, even leading at a rate of 1/20 for the ability to cause humanity to perish in the end of this century."

This prediction was first made by experts at the Global Disaster Risk Conference at Oxford University in 2008.

"A new arms race has actually begun. Future powers will be those with the most modern nano-weapon power , " Mr. del Monte said.
