What will we discover, where we boldly go ? - Page 3

^Bloody hell Skybird!, stop living in Cloud Cuckoo Land will you, the frozen ones are bleeding dead, the only reason they don't try and bring anyone to life is that they'd be found out for what they are, just a bunch of shysters taking money off the rich who believe they can cheat death.
What a sad set of pillocks the whole lot of them are.

I did a demo job at The Mall at Whitney Field once so I can attest!

Cool. I remember when that mall was first built. They called it Searstown back then.

I'm not sure about avoiding the apocalypse, but I do know something about how we would navigate. It's not too dissimilar to navigating by the stars on Earth. That's why they put a sextant on the Apollo spacecraft.

Hm, maybe somebody here did not got that I was talking a metaphor, kind of...

The sleeping ones are walking in our streets, some of them with a smartphone in their hands and their heads frozen in a nod, the others with an opinion or party button on their jacket or a voting ballot in their pocket. Some of them with all of that, these are called the pillars of our communities.

Moonlight · 05-10-21, 07:00 AM

Right, I see.....maybe

Those pillars of our communities you talk about, well where I live those pillocks would be known as first class Knobheads.

I guess we will develop a new type of satellite instead of spacecraft.

These satellite will be around 3-5 times bigger than todays satellite.

They will be packed with micro satellite, who will be used to investigate object in the path of the main satellite.

Their speed will be 5 times higher than todays satellite.

We will build many of these.

Around 2100 space shuttles will be a ordinary sight in the sky.

Shuttles who can take of from almost every airport in the world and who can travel to the moon in one go.

Lets say for arguments sake that we conquer Gravity and also design an engine to take humans to the stars, how bloody big will the spacecraft have to be?.

I would imagine it would have to be massive, as in the size of at least 7 Aircraft carriers bolted together and you're going to need spare parts for everything, a small sized hospital and what about nourishment?.

It's all a bleeding pipedream old boy, stick to watching Star Trek and get your space fantasies from that because as it is it's going to take at least 200 years to get anywhere near Star Trek technology.

First of all this thread is based on an idea I got from the Series Star Trek Enterprise.

The thread is an imaginary sort of thread, where your input is free as long it stay within the world of our univers.

I was thinking What will we discover if we one day invent the warp engine and send a crew away on a 10 years journey what will they find where they boldly go ?

This thread is also a more earthbound-where you can post more exact science.
Which some of you have done and myself.

As I mentioned in my former thread-We will develop a new type of satellite.

By the way-I think they have solved the gravity things-Remember a two hours The univers special, where they discussed Star Trek and what would be possible.

Some scientist came with the idea that in the outer ring of the disc on the spaceship should be a metal ring going around in a certain speed-Could have remember it wrong though.

I dont think inventing the warp engine is so much the problem. I think the most difficult hurdle is harnessing the energy to power it.

mapuc · 05-10-21, 01:25 PM

Another thing I been thinking about is the view in faster than light perspective.

Imagine you are sitting in the captains chair and give the order to engage the warp engine-fast or slowly your ship reach the speed you have ordered.

At impulse speed you see thing coming closer as you approach it....but how would it look like when you travelling faster than light ?

Maybe we will find another habital planet and one day be able to travel there.

Necessity is the mother of invention. Provided we arent destroyed by some global extinction event. The sun will cause earth to become uninhabital in less than a billion years.

Better hope warp drive is ready long before then

It may be the sad reality in the near future that humans realize that travelling beyond our solar system is just not possible. There are limits to technology and the distances are just to great. To travel at just 20% of the speed of light means accelerating to 134,123,326 MPH. So far that is just a science fiction pipe dream.

mapuc · 05-10-21, 05:44 PM

I made a search for the words what is warp drive in Star Trek and found following in the question and answers

Q: Is warp speed possible?

A: Scientists Announce a Physical Warp Drive Is Now Possible. Seriously. Humans are one step closer to traveling at faster-than-light speeds. A new paper proposes a fully physically realized model for warp drive.

https://www.popularmechanics.com/sci...e-is-possible/

Then I made a search for controlling gravity

Q: Can we control gravity?

A: The better news is that there is no science that says that gravity control is impossible. First, we do know that gravity and electromagnetism are linked phenomena. ... Another way is through new theories from quantum mechanics that link gravity and inertia to something called "vacuum fluctuations."

That's what they thought about the Concord, but the business model was not quite there.

Just waiting for nuclear thermal propulsion
