Anybody who watched Star Trek TNG with any regularity already has a pretty firm grasp of the concept.
Awesome! I just wish I could comprehend what they’re talking about.
Why can’t we run our cars on Dark Energy?.................damned enviros!..............
It’s gonna take oodles and oodles of energy. By the time we get the capability to generate that much, the libs will have made sure that we each are allowed the use of one AAA battery per week. Can’t warp far on that. :)
Speed doesn’t kill. Acceleration (and deceleration) does.
There are ten dimensions? Holy cow. There is so much that we don’t know.
My questions is this: If the speed of light is what 187000 miles per second, what is the velocity of which these people speak?
This new spaceship, or whatever form it would take, sounds like a great vehicle to be late in!
It is of course completely refuted by Einstein. The speed of light is the same regardless of the reference frame. These guys are just fantasizing about what could be if Special Relativity weren't true.
So, if it travels faster than light, what happens if they flick the headlights on? ;)
Pelosi says it will take at least 10 years before we can get even a drop of dark matter and we should buy stock in her wind company instead.
Maybe we'll have particle lasers fueled by red mercury.
Yes, I think FTL is possible using a field theory as they describe. It just makes my teeth ache every time they mention "dark" anything. The whole science of dark energy/matter is based off of sketchy suppositions and guesses IMO.
The numbers look pretty, but they are basing a lot of it off of some seriously flawed assumptions. Again, in my undereducated opinion only.
You’ll have to ask the pilot to slow down so you can watch the in-flight movie.
Well, except during rush hour of course.
The distances between the stars are just too vast for us to make it without one of these two things.
Being a religious person, I find it hard to believe that God would create us in a universe where our survival was not possible.
String theorists had believed that a total of 10 dimensions exist, including height, width, length and time. The other six dimensions exist largely as unknowns, but everything is based on hypothetical one-dimensional strings. A newer theory, called M-theory, suggests that those strings all vibrate in yet another dimension. Manipulating that additional dimension would alter dark energy in terms of height, width, and length, Cleaver and Obousy theorize.That 'other dimension' is the Eleventh and is based 'Super Gravity' which was pooh-poohed until theoretical physicists realized (finally) that without it their String Theory didn't 'work' because their was FIVE of them, and that ain't good in physics. Only by adding the Eleventh Dimension of Super Gravity did they see that all five string theories were basically the same thing being approached from different directions. And more importantly the M-Theory solved the leetle problem the String Theory couldn't -- The Big Bang and The Singularity (not to mention Alternate Universes, but that's another matter (pun intended).
As to Einstein; There's already a problem with E=mc2. Super Gamma Ray Bursts blow it to hell. The 'answer' arrived at to make it work is laughable (IMO). So if he's wrong there ...??? Oh and Leptons appear in two places at the same time. How do they do that, Alternate Universes or Time Travel?
I'm not a Theoretical Physicist, nor a Cosmologist, I just play one on FR.
space-time bubble.. manipulate dark energy
can wormhole tollways be far behind?
Been there.....Done that! {:-)
Dark matter doesn’t actually exist. It’s just a tool for math.
