I doubt a ram scoop would work because you’d need to do aero braking, all while not accidentally not performing a slingshot maneuver out of the system.
Well...If the two separate real points are in the span of the straight line, this might be true.
But consider a single point by it self...If there is both a real (non-imaginary) and complex (imaginary) mathematical solution to identify that point, one might also say that the shortest distance between two points is a point....{:-)
You can imagine a shorter distance between two points than a straight line, and if you do you’re delusional.
The complex plane is a metric space. If the points are distinct, the ordinary rules still apply.
that would only be plausible if you subscribe to the falsifiable Anthropic Principle.
Impirical proof that time exists is the principle of Entropy.
Albert Einstein's general theory of relativity explains that what we perceive as the force of gravity in fact arises from the curvature of space and time. Einstein proposed that objects such as the sun and the Earth change this geometry.
if you fall from a cliff then time will become very real
