wouldn't it be cool if we had a shuttle that traveled 1,000,000,000,000,000 times faster than the speed of light and we should visit any planet and actually reside on it...oh think of the possibilities..

1.86 x 10^20 Mps <br /><br />1.116 x 10^22 Mpm<br /><br />6.696 x 10^23 Mph<br /><br />For intra-solar travel you might want to go a little slower.<br />

The deceleration phase of flight would kind of hurt. <br /><br />But, yeah, the idea is cool.

Sort of a thin veneer of Raspberry Jam comes to mind... <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

I don't think the acceleration phase would tend to be too cool either. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

Well, yeah. As far a propulsion systems go, we're not even at the Model-T level yet.<br /><br />More like at the leaky rowboat stage. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p><em>Differential Diagnosis:  </em>"<strong><em>I am both amused and annoyed that you think I should be less stubborn than you are</em></strong>."<br /> </p> </div>

I always prefered E.E. "Doc" Smiths' "instant elsewhere" drive.<br /><br />It would pose a problem though. The very first time we came into contact with other such equipped aliens, instant war to the death between the species.

It'd be great fun. We just need to find an inertial dampener, a General Products hull, probably want some type of artificial grav and then we can have Honor Harrington move into the Captain's Quarters with me as a consultant. <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> <p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> <br /><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="width:271px;background-color:#FFF;border:1pxsolid#999"><tr><td colspan="2"><div style="height:35px"><img src="http://banners.wunderground.com/weathersticker/htmlSticker1/language/www/US/MT/Three_Forks.gif" alt="" height="35" width="271" style="border:0px" /></div>

NO NO NO. Death to all female "captains".<br /><br />Trust me, I live in the only western matriarcy*, and i can tell you that the only place for women in the command structure is as Sovereign. They are beyond perfect as that, they are ideal as that, as the font of Honour, but that font is ONLY to be served and protected by MALE officers and specifically MALE Captains.<br /><br />Death to the "janeways".<br /><br /><img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" /> <br />*New Zealand or "Islands of the Wummins"
