A Theoretical Means of Faster than Light Space Travel
What can go faster than the speed of light? The only known entity is gravity, which is at least 20 times faster than the speed of light and possibly much faster. If gravity could be harnessed then one could in theory exceed light speed. We know that all matter radiates gravity. If artificial gravity could be created in tremendous quantity and intensity, focused in a particular direction and controlled in its amount of pull; then it could be used as a power source for interstellar space travel The gravity could be aimed at the sun or moon to lift a spaceship off of the earth and accelerate it. Once beyond the major gravitational pull of the earth, it could be pointed at another planet or star and increased in power to further accelerate speed hopefully beyond the speed of light. This could make interstellar travel feasible. Once you near the desired destination, the gravitational generator could be focused in the reverse direction to slow the spaceship down to make a soft landing possible. This only a theoretical possibility; first one must figure out how generate artificial gravity and then harness it as a propulsion method. This will require the creation of super gravity and the means of controlling it for the desired purpose. Richard Franing |
