US military again experimenting with bacteria

US Defense News Defense One Proudly recently announced that scientists under the auspices of the Navy, Air Force and US Army are close to creating bacteria that can easily detect submarines the enemy.

By the way, the first information about such developments (a project under quite complicated even the abbreviation name ARASTPPSBME) appeared at the beginning of 2017, but then on this news, few noticed. However, today this project is already solid financed (about $ 50 million has been allocated for it), and The military is waiting for its first practical results in a year.

The essence of the project is to create artificial microorganisms capable of responding to the presence in seawater certain substances (for the detection of submarines it is rust, lubricating oils, fuel oil). Such a technology will be useful in the first place. queue for tracking submarines using diesel-electric drive, since there are no such submarines in the USA, and it means that it will be very easy to distinguish ours from strangers.

Artificially created “smart bacteria” by the US military plan to use also to protect ports from penetration into them underwater saboteurs (based on the reaction to human DNA), and even using them to create a “paint” for military equipment, it’s easy imitating the environment, achieving the so-called effect invisibility (about one of the most unsuccessful American “invisibility” – the legendary F-117 Stealth bomber – watch the video at the end articles).

The plans, of course, are grandiose, but the world community the overconfidence of American scientists scares. They are Once they came up with the bacterium “Cynthia”, which was supposed to “devour” accidentally spilled oil in the ocean. And in 2010, after the catastrophic explosion of the Deepwater drilling rig Horizon “when about 5 million hit the Gulf of Mexico barrels of oil, covering over 100 thousand square kilometers water surface, American scientists released to combat this ecological disaster artificially created microorganism. However, invented, it would seem, just for this, “Cynthia” is already soon realized that it’s much easier and tastier to eat all living things in Gulf of Mexico than oil, and therefore arranged here such ecological disaster, the consequences of which the Americans (and not only they) still disentangle.

It wouldn’t work in the USA with bacteria against submarines, saboteurs something like that? And if these microorganisms lead yourself completely not as planned? By the way, like experiments are conducted not only in the USA, but also in other countries (at least in this area of ​​military development Americans are trying to overtake the Chinese, not even hiding such race). Will the same scary picture turn out in this case, both with climate and tectonic weapons? And if still worse?

Do you think it’s worth experimenting with the living microorganisms – bacteria that are older than humanity by billions of years? ..
