Now you will learn from how cyborgs are born, who they are, what they can do, how you can become like the Terminator and how much it costs. Below are examples of such cyborg people who live next door to us ...
The public could see the answer to this question after the release of various films on television. Let's tense up a bit and remember such films as "Cyborg Cop", "Robocop" and other films, the main characters of which are cyborgs.
If people could create cyborgs for movies, then why not bring the idea to life? This thought was overwhelming for most, but now such people already exist among us. Who are they and how did they appear?
The history of the appearance of cyborgs began in Ancient Egypt when they came up with a prosthesis and screwed it to a living person. The example is a little stretched, but still suitable.
Now thanks to modern technologies you can not only restore the lost part of the body, but also acquire a new one.
Due to the rapid development of robotics, most likely, it will soon be possible to improve almost any function of our organs: vision, hearing, touch, muscle movement, and even thinking!
Similar technologies are already being actively used in hearing implants, bionic limb prostheses, and even in relation to internal organs, such as the heart. Already now there are people who have a robotic retina or limbs like the Terminator. But who are these people, it is written a little lower, we will leave all the most interesting for dessert :)
In our time, there are real people cyborgs. After all, they have artificial body parts that can move in the same way as a normal one, or function as an internal organ. This happens through collaboration. nervous system with prostheses that are controlled by the power of thought.
US scientists have made a statement that they are going to modernize the human brain by implanting a chip into it. Such an improvement will allow the owner to use the memory when necessary and remember absolutely any information.
AT recent times there is an active development of priblud, making possible appearance a person with superpowers. As futurologists predict, by about the middle of our century (2050 somewhere) we will be able to observe people who have implanted "superpower".
Quite natural, according to them, will be night vision or the ability to develop tremendous speed when running. Any person who will have the means, with the help of the usual plastic surgery can become superman or superwoman. And the most interesting thing is that such "spare parts" can be replaced with new ones over time.
In the mid-1980s, the replacement of the main "parts" for the body, in the amount of $ 6,000,000, now, this figure has decreased by 40 times and is in the range of 160,000 bucks. A little more specifically: an ear replacement will cost $ 15,000, a ceramic jaw - $ 20,000, artificial heart- $50,000 and so on.
Here are some examples of "spare parts" for the man of the future:
Of course, this is not all developments to create a man of the future.
Now we will tell you about cyborgs that really exist. Let's start.
Today you can hear many different stories about cyborgs, but what will happen in 10, 15, 30 years? Perhaps cyborg people will surround us every day, meet us on the streets of the city. And perhaps someday you will have to make a difficult choice: to remain a man or become a robot.
Heroes of the Great Patriotic War
Submachine gunner of the 2nd Separate Battalion of the 91st Separate Siberian Volunteer Brigade named after Stalin.
Sasha Matrosov did not know his parents. He was brought up in orphanage and labor colony. When the war began, he was not even 20. Matrosov was drafted into the army in September 1942 and sent to an infantry school, and then to the front.
In February 1943, his battalion attacked the Nazi stronghold, but fell into a trap, falling under heavy fire, cutting off the path to the trenches. They fired from three bunkers. Two soon fell silent, but the third continued to shoot the Red Army soldiers who lay in the snow.
Seeing that only chance to get out from under the fire is to suppress the fire of the opponent, Sailors with a fellow soldier crawled to the bunker and threw two grenades in his direction. The gun was silent. The Red Army went on the attack, but the deadly weapon chirped again. Alexander's partner was killed, and Matrosov was left alone in front of the bunker. Something had to be done.
He didn't even have a few seconds to make a decision. Not wanting to let his comrades down, Alexander closed the embrasure of the bunker with his body. The attack was successful. And Matrosov posthumously received the title of Hero Soviet Union.

Brigadier scout of the 67th detachment of the 4th Leningrad partisan brigade.
Lena was 15 years old when the war began. He already worked at the factory, having finished the seven-year plan. When the Nazis captured his native Novgorod region, Lenya joined the partisans.
He was brave and determined, the command appreciated him. For several years spent in the partisan detachment, he participated in 27 operations. On his account, several destroyed bridges behind enemy lines, 78 destroyed Germans, 10 trains with ammunition.
It was he who, in the summer of 1942, near the village of Varnitsa, blew up a car in which the German Major General of the Engineering Troops, Richard von Wirtz, was located. Golikov managed to obtain important documents about the German offensive. The enemy attack was thwarted, and the young hero for this feat was presented to the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.

In 1942, 16-year-old Zina joined the underground organization Young Avengers. It distributed anti-fascist leaflets in the occupied territories. Then, under cover, she got a job working in the canteen for German officers, where she committed several acts of sabotage and only miraculously was not captured by the enemy. Her courage surprised many experienced soldiers.
In 1943, Zina Portnova joined the partisans and continued to engage in sabotage behind enemy lines. Due to the efforts of defectors who surrendered Zina to the Nazis, she was captured. In the dungeons, she was interrogated and tortured. But Zina was silent, not betraying her. At one of these interrogations, she grabbed a pistol from the table and shot three Nazis. After that, she was shot in prison.
Underground anti-fascist organization operating in the area of modern Luhansk region. There were over a hundred people. The youngest participant was 14 years old.

It included both regular military personnel, who were cut off from the main units, and local youth. Among the most famous participants: Oleg Koshevoy, Ulyana Gromova, Lyubov Shevtsova, Vasily Levashov, Sergey Tyulenin and many other young people.
The "Young Guard" issued leaflets and committed sabotage against the Nazis. Once they managed to disable an entire tank repair shop, burn down the stock exchange, from where the Nazis drove people to forced labor in Germany. The members of the organization planned to stage an uprising, but were exposed because of the traitors. The Nazis caught, tortured and shot more than seventy people. Their feat is immortalized in one of the most famous military books by Alexander Fadeev and the film adaptation of the same name.
28 people from the personnel of the 4th company of the 2nd battalion of the 1075th rifle regiment.
In November 1941, a counteroffensive against Moscow began. The enemy did not stop at nothing, making a decisive forced march before the onset of a harsh winter.
At this time, the fighters under the command of Ivan Panfilov took up a position on the highway seven kilometers from Volokolamsk, a small town near Moscow. There they gave battle to the advancing tank units. The battle lasted four hours. During this time, they destroyed 18 armored vehicles, delaying the enemy's attack and frustrating his plans. All 28 people (or almost all, here the opinions of historians differ) died.
According to legend, the company's political instructor Vasily Klochkov, before the decisive stage of the battle, turned to the fighters with a phrase that became known throughout the country: "Russia is great, but there is nowhere to retreat - Moscow is behind!"
The Nazi counteroffensive ultimately failed. The battle for Moscow, which was assigned the most important role during the war, was lost by the occupiers.
As a child, the future hero suffered from rheumatism, and the doctors doubted that Maresyev would be able to fly. However, he stubbornly applied to the flight school until he was finally enrolled. Maresyev was drafted into the army in 1937.
He met the Great Patriotic War at the flight school, but soon got to the front. During a sortie, his plane was shot down, and Maresyev himself was able to eject. Eighteen days, seriously wounded in both legs, he got out of the encirclement. However, he still managed to overcome the front line and ended up in the hospital. But gangrene had already begun, and the doctors amputated both of his legs.
For many, this would mean the end of the service, but the pilot did not give up and returned to aviation. Until the end of the war, he flew with prostheses. Over the years, he made 86 sorties and shot down 11 enemy aircraft. And 7 - already after amputation. In 1944, Alexei Maresyev went to work as an inspector and lived to be 84 years old.
His fate inspired the writer Boris Polevoy to write The Tale of a Real Man.

With the help of this simple but effective weapon, a hundred enemy trains were blown up in three months.
Zaslonov actively agitated the local population to go over to the side of the partisans. The Nazis, having learned this, dressed their soldiers in Soviet uniforms. Zaslonov mistook them for defectors and ordered them to be allowed into the partisan detachment. The path to the insidious enemy was open. A battle ensued, during which Zaslonov died. A reward was announced for living or dead Zaslonov, but the peasants hid his body, and the Germans did not get it.
The commander of a small partisan detachment.
Efim Osipenko fought back in civil war. Therefore, when the enemy seized his land, without thinking twice, he joined the partisans. Together with five other comrades, he organized a small partisan detachment that committed sabotage against the Nazis.
During one of the operations, it was decided to undermine the enemy composition. But there was little ammunition in the detachment. The bomb was made from an ordinary grenade. The explosives were to be installed by Osipenko himself. He crawled to the railway bridge and, seeing the approach of the train, threw it in front of the train. There was no explosion. Then the partisan himself hit the grenade with a pole from the railway sign. It worked! A long train with food and tanks went downhill. The squad leader survived, but lost his sight completely.
For this feat, he was the first in the country to be awarded the medal "Partisan of the Patriotic War."
The peasant Matvey Kuzmin was born three years before the abolition of serfdom. And he died, becoming the oldest holder of the title of Hero of the Soviet Union.
His story contains many references to the history of another famous peasant - Ivan Susanin. Matvey also had to lead the invaders through the forest and swamps. And, like the legendary hero, he decided to stop the enemy at the cost of his life. He sent his grandson ahead to warn a detachment of partisans who had stopped nearby. The Nazis were ambushed.

In October 1941, Zoya, as a volunteer, came to the recruiting station and, after a short training at a school for saboteurs, was transferred to Volokolamsk. There, an 18-year-old partisan fighter, along with adult men, performed dangerous tasks: she mined roads and destroyed communication centers.
During one of the sabotage operations, Kosmodemyanskaya was caught by the Germans. She was tortured, forcing her to betray her own. Zoya heroically endured all the trials without saying a word to the enemies. Seeing that it was impossible to get anything from the young partisan, they decided to hang her.
Kosmodemyanskaya steadfastly accepted the test. A moment before her death, she shouted to the assembled local residents: “Comrades, victory will be ours. German soldiers, before it's too late, surrender!" The courage of the girl so shocked the peasants that they later retold this story to front-line correspondents. And after the publication in the Pravda newspaper, the whole country learned about the feat of Kosmodemyanskaya. She became the first woman to be awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union during the Great Patriotic War.
In the outgoing year, many tragic events took place: a flood in the Kuban, massacres in the Rigla office and the Sandy Hook school, explosions of army shells and attacks by militants.

Sympathetic to others
Forensic psychiatrist, head of the Center for Legal and Psychological Assistance in extreme situations Mikhail Vinogradov explained to the VZGLYAD newspaper that “heroic deeds are most often performed by outwardly ordinary, inconspicuous people who have such concepts as conscience and indifference. Heroism is not something ostentatious, it is a sudden flash of desire to save someone, to support someone. Such acts are committed by people who are sympathetic to others, benevolent.”
He noted that compared to adults, children are more likely to perform feats. “It all depends on the situation. Children are more likely to commit heroic deeds because they do not yet have that sense of danger that an adult has already formed. An adult may think, for example, whether I will swim, whether I will jump, whether I will run out.
When the Ministry of Emergency Situations did not yet exist, I led a special brigade to provide assistance in the foci of destruction, and at that time I introduced the concept of a “man-rescuer”, who is always ready to help. Such people are about 25% of the total population,” explained the forensic psychiatrist.
According to him, in people who become heroes, at the decisive moment, the sense of danger is dulled, they see only a goal for salvation in front of them. “Such people have a narrowing of the field of vision. They see the goal - a person is drowning, which means they need to be pulled out, something else has happened - to help. It is the desire to help, save, pull out that narrows the field of vision and allows them to act purposefully,” Mikhail Vinogradov summed up.
tailed rescuers
By the way, in the past year, heroic deeds were performed not only by people.
