Re: "Earth should be about HERE..."
I think the Earth government realizes that if a blind, fleeing ship of refugees can stumble on them then an organized military force possibly pursuing those refugees can find them.

Re: Hashing the Improbable from the Impossible
If chaotic forces can do this and be said to not violate causality, then I don't see how a machine ordered by the press of a button to carry out the same result is then said to violate causality. It's almost as if you believe in the idea of free will (and if you do, please know that I didn't mean t...

Re: Hashing the Improbable from the Impossible
So, you're saying... if there are spontaneous super-entities out there somewhere (and if there is one then it is somewhat likely that there are many) then 'Ia Ia Cthulhu Fhtagn'? I'm saying if a spontaneously generated burst of antimatter from the vacuum were to appear in large enough quantity to a...

Re: Hashing the Improbable from the Impossible
On that note, I had an idea last night. Would causality be violated if, say, spontaneous antimatter annihilated a ship while a copy of the ship spontaneously created in a distant location? I'm aware of matter/antimatter pairs and quantum entanglement, but I'm not sure if this mixture of the two is ...

Re: Page 90
Objection, 'classical' objects are a collection of almost innumerable quantum effects, the dissociation between physics and quantum physics is a failing of modern science. Let us perform a simple experiment to determine the probability of a classical-scale object quantum tunneling through another s...

Re: Page 88
And already do it good enough. Bulk-carriers with an acceleration of 6G like the Bell would certainly do. I don't think our bulk carriers are going to be anywhere near 6g, you are comparing a military scout vessel against a freighter, there's going to be a significant acceleration difference. Well ...

Re: Page 88
I think a comparison question to humanity's contribution would be, "How easily could Victorian level industry help the current US Navy?" If that's accurate, then it's possible. Ship are still essentially made of wielded steel, and wielding is something the victorians would have no trouble picking u...

You got no shortage of space elves there.
The Ahb (sp?) aren't blue, but they are space elves, yeah

Re: Page 88
I would be surprised if the Loroi couldn't build ships with capabilities similar to Terran ships for substantially lower materials cost than the Terrans could, and for far less than the cost of a single warship, so I'm still doubtful about how much this would actually save. In addition, they need f...

Re: Hyperspace
I have two responses:
1) Thank god this is science fiction!
2) I never really liked those catgirls anyway >.>
edit: Actually a third response: Who said string theory was real physics, it doesn't make any testable predictions, so it's all fantasy too.

Re: Hyperspace
elizibar: I don't know that the jump field necessarily causes the ship to take a chunk of space-time into hyperspace with it, but that's certainly an interesting way to think about it. Though I wonder what would happen to this bubble of space-time when the ship attempts to re-embed in realspace. Bu...

Re: Hyperspace
You know Arioch, if hyperspace is 'off the brane' so to speak, then I wonder what the consequences are for normal matter. Force particles that aren't gravitons and matter particles are normally limited to living on the 3+1 dimensional brane. Kicking them into a region where they can't normally live ...
