"A recent journal article by the authors introduced the eight-by-eight spacetime matrix operator M̂ which played a key role in the formulation of Lorentz invariant matrix equations for both the classical electrodynamic Maxwell field equations and the quantum mechanical relativistic Dirac equation for free space. Those new equations we referred to as the Maxwell spacetime matrix and the Dirac spacetime matrix equations." https://www.intechopen.com/chapters/67724 Richard P. Bocker and B. Roy Frieden

The Matrix Intersection

 When The_Matrix was released in 1999 on March 31, so many people were amazed as to how cool this science fiction movie was, and still is. 

For many, just one Matrix movie was enough and a person could leave it at that. However, several people liked how the story continued in The_Matrix_(franchise) universe.

Perhaps the 4th Matrix movie might just be considered to be like some bonus material to the overall story-line. However, it does provide some interesting updates.

There doesn't seem to be any more Matrix movies on the horizon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Matrix_Resurrections#Future

The 1966 movie Fantastic_Voyage depicted the miniaturization of organic and inorganic material.

Fear for Donetsk after eight-year war escalates

 https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-wales-60738988


The 1990 movie, By_Dawn's_Early_Light has an interesting plot element. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099197

"In 1991, dissident officials in the Soviet Union launch a nuclear missile at Donetsk from a site in NATO member Turkey. The Soviet automated defence systems, believing that a NATO attack is in progress, execute a measured launch of intercontinental ballistic missiles (ICBMs) at the United States. After Donetsk is destroyed, the Strategic Air Command (SAC) scrambles its forces and SAC Commander General Renning urges the US president to authorize a full counterattack. The Soviet leader explains the dissidents' actions to the US president. He asks the US to stand down, but he is willing to accept a US counterstrike comparable to the Soviets' strike, costing each side six to nine million people. If the United States launches an all-out attack, the Soviets will respond in kind and doom the whole planet." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/By_Dawn's_Early_Light#Plot
