RE: Deciphering the monsters of our universe, aka black holes
Interesting and simple information This is what everyone is looking for... There are those who believe that this information is useless...
But NASA has plans for a spacecraft capable of travelling at unimaginable speeds above the speed of light, which is about 300,000 kilometers per second.
All of this came from these ideas in this wonderful topic
I agree, this was a simplistic approach and helps me to start understanding black holes. @lemouth, I am looking forward to additional posts. "Any fool can make things more complex. It takes a touch of genius to move in the opposite direction." Albert Einstein.
Well, there is a strong theoretical problem with this propulsion method (known as Alcubierre drive).
The principle is that you curve positively space time in front (say with a point of huge energy or mass in front of the ship), and negatively at the back... that would create a gravitational pulse that will propulsive the ship forwards (the ship surfs the wave).
But how do you curve space-time negatively? With negative energy / mass? Good luck with that...
