Great job keep up the good work ❤
I sound like a broken record, but this is definitely the best science podcast, hands down. Love this and all the subjects you cover which, to my delight, are all related. I'm learning so much here. Thanks!
Thank you.
Ooooh I like that the Alcubierre drive can also function at sub-luminal speeds! I never really contemplated this option before. I went through loving it, then abandoning it because FTL in my construction is prohibited forever. Using it to travel fast, but sub-luminal is a fantastic prospect.
It is cool isn’t it? Thanks for watching
May I ask what in your personal construction disallows for FTL? Relativistic arguments I would guess
@@Penrose707 From what I understand any version of the Alcubierre drive that moves at superluminal speeds requires negative mass. As we have no evidence that negative mass exists and no real reason to think that it does it's assumed to be impossible.
The back end of the warp bubble would also functionally be a black hole that follows behind you ship (you're moving faster than light so no light can reach you from behind) and that would probably do some funky stuff.
@@sanctus864 Yes, thank you. I understand that this is a constraint on the Alcubierre model. Though I admit absence of evidence is not evidence absent. Perhaps we just have not found this matter yet. I was more inquiring into the persons personal model of physics which precludes FTL. Which seemed implied but perhaps I was wrong
@@sanctus864 But then, Superluminal is funky -- so that should be a plus not a negation.😁
There is a paper detailing a method for creating warp spheres without negative energy. They present a general formula for building a warp field metric from a vector field and show that if you start with a divergence-free vector field you always end up with a warp metric that does not require negative energy, and you can obtain any effective speed this way.
@@disgruntledwookie369 what is the name of the paper?
I read their paper "Gravitational Waveforms From Warp Drive Collapse" What I understood of it? We live in a universe that is both object specific and observer specific. Not only is angular momentum conserved, but also linear momentum. Newtons laws. An object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain in motion etc. So we are talking about the momentum of point masses. The only way I can think of to get around this problem is... We somehow make our space craft's mass invisible to spacetime. By that I mean we somehow make the craft seem lighter than it is without breaking down the bonds of the strong force. Then it will take less energy to move it. The other option is we somehow learn to exploit the fundamental particles of the standard model. And project mass particles around the craft, in particular infront of it. But that might break a conservation law? Or we cover the rear of the craft in Casmir Comb and use some method to block or unblock standing waves from getting between the walls of the comb. As a Star Trek fan I am looking forward to the field of Wave Field Theory coming about.
Would you like to talk more about Wave Field Collapse Theory? I have been working on it for some time, not for a drive system but for an error correction system in predictive quantum probability experiments. My wave field collapse model is based on a detector framework (fully described realizability) that leverages temporal entanglement signatures and the engagement of them across our time without collapsing the open wave function field needed for their formation. The error correction is achieved by the detector mechanism inside the open field. When we read the error correction the field collapses, but containing the correction collapses to the correct result for our successful outcome. My error correction system would get us straight to the correct answer of questions like your "how without breaking down the strong force" and "project particles around it without violating comservation" questions
Wave Field Theory is already about. It's in basic form, but thus far it has these properties: The substrate of space is described as a continuous quantum field. The field is the same throughout all spacetime. Spaces or "A space" is an emergent feature within the field. The substrate of space is discrete points of energy distributed evenly throughout the field. The discrete points do not move, a wave function that propagates through the field translates them to carry a reducible pattern of concentrations in energy along it. When a reducible pattern encounters probability, it's wave function diverges into many possible wave functions simultaneously propagating through the field. An observer, like ourselves, may observe one of the divergences and conclude that it is the true result of propagation. Once we do this our observed divergence becomes the true result, within the wave function congruent with the version of ourselves at the source of divergence through tbe version of ourselves at the observation which confirms it. This is said to "collapse the open wave function" of the divergence to a singe closed wave function which agrees with our measurement. We have "Collapsed the open wave function of the open probability field", whereas in actual fact we have only collapsed one of the divergences of the experiment to one of the divergences of its observation. All other experiment and observation wave functions are still present but have not been collapsed into deciding their correlation congruence.
This is what happens when you make a mistake or a wrong prediction... You collapse one of the problem divergences with one of your observation divergences that does not match a congruence applicable to the line of intention you brought to apply on that solution. So you landed in the wrong waveform collapse relative to your desire. And therefore a different divergence of you collapsed into the correct correlation instead of you.
This is the correct quantum description of what we call "error"
@@Lastindependentthinker forgive my ignorance. But I would like a little clarification?
It’s my understanding that as an object approaches C, its mass increases to the point that its mass is infinite at C. Requiring infinite energy to get to the magic number.
If that understanding is correct, would it matter what the baseline mass is when it approached the speed of light?
Or do I need to grab the duncecap and head to the corner?
Yes, any material will be significantly blue shifted if it is accelerating towards us, heavily red shifted in certain non-natural wavelengths if it is accelerating away from us.
I remember reading about very blue shifted energy bursts we've detected that would equate to very high energy events.. not FRBs. I can't remember but they were called but all I remember is that the energy required/released would be insane. I wish I could find that paper again
There is something sort of similar you can do with airplanes and the sound barrier. Subsonic passenger jets that cruise close to the speed of sound (Mach 0.76-0.86) can sometimes achieve ground speeds that are faster than the speed of sound at sea level by using jet streams.
If the airplane is going 500 knots and it is travelling with a jet stream moving at 200kts, it can travel across the ground at 700 knots, which is faster than sound at sea level and standard temps (about 660kts).
The airplane itself physically cannot travel faster than sound, but it is travelling within a column of air which is itself moving, much in the same way a spaceship with a warp drive would travel sub-luminally but within a bubble of warping spacetime that causes it to travel faster than light with respect to an outside observer.
Cool are jet streams that fast high up ? Or just a round example
@@damianp7313 100 knots typical, >200 knots seasonal. A Boeing 777 cruises at around 550 knots. So yes, quite plausible.
t sound berrier isn't real its construct of our atmosphere
@@0011peace The effects of moving at high transonic speeds (large increase in drag with abrupt onset, buffeting, etc.) are real enough. The precise velocity of Mach 1 varies depending on pressure, temperature, and medium.
If we could develop an FTL drive we would be able to gather more information on detecting it or not.
I think even if they are not capable of FTL we need to figure out a way to create warp drives. After all, they solve other issues too.
-time dilation
-moving objects like dust around the ship, preventing collisions
-minimizing inertia since the ship itself isn't actually moving, thereby not crushing the occupants into thin pinkish paste from sudden acceleration.
I'm sure there could be more problems it solves if we all spent time thinking about it.
Why didn't anybody else think of that.
@@jeffk464 I assume many people have, but it never seems to be brought up in videos about it.
Me. too, in my Real Clear Science feed
@@jds1275 In your first paragraph: "developing warp drive to gather more information on detecting it" that concept is attractive but logically flawed. People have thought of it, but you can not send information back in time within a universe to inform the future creation that would be a way to inform its own creation. This is a time paradox and can not occur within the same universe
@@jds1275 Steven Hawking called this impossibility the Chronological Protection Preservation
Any object traveling faster than light will appear to us to be going backwards in time. So, if I look out into space and see a spaceship approaching the light speed barrier, what I'll also notice is something like a "shadow" of the same ship, reversing towards the other ship. When the two ships appear to meet, that is when the spaceship goes super-luminal, with a bright flash of light like a shockwave.
Id be essentially teleporting/time traveling. Seems like what happens in those mh370 vidoes

Fantastic interview, John! Thanks a bunch!!! 😃
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I would be interested in hearing your take on a comparative analysis of the difference / similarity between the quest to break the speed of sound barrier and the speed of light barrier. Thank you.
What I concluded saying the light has a speed is misleading. It's actually a max information speed or max speed when a space is going to break. I don't thing we will ever cross it. Comparing it to speed of sound is pointless.
It's been found when the Casimir plates are moved towards each other very fast, it generates photons. I think it's quite possible that the inverse is also the case. When the two plates are moved apart at speed, negative energy is generated. Turn the plates into two circular plates with a tiny gap between them & rotate them in opposite directions.
So badass. Literally was just reading about this yesterday.
Me. too, in my Real Clear Science feed
This channel always has good content. We need the most possible sensitive gravity wave detectors, because there is physics there that could have energy density quantities that make splitting the atom look silly. When you have a black hole merger, these waves carry solar masses worth of energy, we need this physics.
Great video and information !

Thanks John salute from Toronto happy 4th of July.
I heard recently that there's a new theory that micro-black holes make up the very fabric of space-time, which is what "might" allow information to apparently be transmitted FTL in the case of entangled particles.
My question to you is: Could the one-electron universe theory be correct if say, the single electron was using these wormholes to traverse the universe instantly to be anywhere it needs at any given time?
Would love a video about this but totally understand if you don't dedicate a whole video to the subject. An answer in a comment would be just as rad.
Love this channel. It's like science ASMR.
Very interesting discussion !
The people on this channel are so interesting to listen to. 😊
Wish the audio podcasts were to date. I presume it's due to mobilization which I would fully understand. Maybe for patreon?
How do you travel short distances with that? Some kind of landing pattern with a few preprogramed stops that bring the craft to shorter distances by massively overshooting and coming back?
Great content, that was a very short 40 minutes!

Tell me how to create the bubble wall with hundreds of Planck length thickness and how you solve the energy distribution during FTL travel? And how you solve the violations of different energy conditions?
What about scaling down... what is the smallest warp bubble that could be created? If you could scale down to the point where a Casimir device becomes a viable source of negative energy for establishing the boundary conditions then could we manufacture something like a localized tachyon?

@@ericb2017 woops
rly enjoyable episode :) a question i have, if a 1 km warp drive needs the mass energy of our star, would all the gravitational potential of that energy be contained in the distortion of space time of the bubble? i guess another way to ask, the mass energy of the sun in a kilometer sounds like a neutron star (and the surface gravity on those gets relativistic😱)? thx again the guests this ep were great!
If FTL is impossible detecting it will be difficult.
Regarding the Alcubierre drive, do we in principle understand how to build even a testbench version? What I have in mind isn't a drive at all but something that when started cause an effect. Maybe the effect would be so tiny that advanced instruments would be needed even to detect this effect but still. Perhaps something that mysteriously bend a laser beam a tiny bit when projecting through the warpfield?
We need to find the gravitational 'strings' that link galaxies. I've experienced the same in life. Two objects that collide have eddies that link the two, like a river. It's quite natural.
Great guests!

Interferometry scan in proximity of the gap of Casimir plates in a vacuum chamber, and that might be the trick to picking up some higher frequency gravity waves. I would also think such a device would be small compared to something like LIGO. How useful that would be, who knows? But it might show something interesting.

Thank you!
I'm thinking it's way far off but the way we brake the light barrier will come from gravitational waves like silver surfer if we can create the wave and ride
The short answer: No. Our tech is based on Electrons (electronics), EM Spectrum. Everything underpinning the tech that has higher math/physics involved in it (IE photon detectors, MRIs, etc)...Is assumptive on Relativity (Time is arrow, velocity
SPOILER (you saw it here June 2024): Dark Matter/Energy is just other non bosom/fermion stuff that is superluminal (naturally). OR its evidence of composite universe (IE BB = white hole, and 'this' universe = different stuff that isn't necessarily 'our' waves/particles/energy).
WIMPs/MOND is basically ruled out. We're reaching the lower limit (if you want to believe Planck values = valid) on how 'small' Standard Model particles could be...Everything points to fact we're missing 70-90% of 'whats in the universe' and yet, we're not detecting it even using fairly exotic instruments (supercolliders, Muon detectors etc).
...So logic says DM/DE Isn't 'like' anything we've classified/studied before: its outside EM Spectrum and Standard Model. This shouldn't be 'fringe concept'; MOST of the standard model wasn't discovered 125yrs ago, even 50yrs ago large portions were only theory at best.
Institutional Scientists aren't ones that'll make 'groundbreaking theory/discoveries': they mostly think the way their professors taught them, in a set of rules/limits established before they even understood what they were studying: today they never fundamentally question all of that (to reassess the flaws in it); and so most of physics is just accepted at face-value...despite current theories only accounting for small minority of 'whats out there'.

wow incredible guests. I particularly loved listening to Dr Katy Clough. Fantastic. Thankyou JMG.
Cool discussion!! How I want to know the possibilities here...
JMG - Wondering if Warp Drive Engines can be used to send gravitational messages.
Reminds me of the next door neighbor who raves his sports car engine early in the morning, before driving to the beach.
Imposing limit would never work, someone would do it anyway. Only takes one. Same reason some fermi paradox solutions fail
To pretend I know what I'm talking about for a few minutes: I wonder how the possibility of FTL interacts with other aspects of physics? Does something interacting with your frame of reference FTL locally violate things other than causality? After all, from the local light cone's perspective, a large amount of energy just appeared from nowhere, and if it brought ordinary matter with it, it violates all kinds of conservation laws: energy, spin, baryon/lepton number, momentum...
And from the QM perspective, how does this affect the probability distributions? Assume the first FTL drive breaks down and is never repaired after its first trip. OK, but everything along its path has just had the possibility introduced, and that seems like it would screw with quantum states something fierce, if an FTL cosmic ray could just randomly show up and introduce some new variables. I got beaten to an intellectual pulp by mere Calculus II, and QM is a lot of integrals, so I have no idea if I'm understanding the subject well enough to gesture vaguely at a meaningful concept, but it seems like an interesting avenue for research, if there's an approach that doesn't require solving quantum gravity.
🙏 thank you.
Nice job
Hyperluminal speeds are possible, the increase in mass that is supposed to prevent it, is of RELATIVE mass. Any object travelling towards it will split in two, like a form of macro-superposition, the actual object will accelerate beyond light-speed, whilst the trace seen by observers will never & appear to slow down, just like an astronaut falling into a black hole.
This video reminds me of an interesting Bayesian reduction in physics I wrote recently. Its aim is to find the closest edge of a commonality space which can be included and shared between all of the current competing Unified or Unifying Theories of Everything. Its axiom path is along the possibility of existence vector from omni-possible to singularly possible.
The reduction can be applied like this: Is reality real? Is it all just a simulation.. Is it all completely synthetic, fake?
Reduction: The concept of "Reality" at least exists within our universe, and so within any limits of existence.
The existence of this notion necessitates that the fundamentals of existence whatever they are, allow for them.
Observers within any type of reality experience some kind of certainty that they are within it.
Certainty in observations done by these observers have been proven to play a part in shaping the reality they are in, or deciding which reality they are in and observing.
Since the observation that we are in a reality is a high level fundamental that implies they can exist all the way to the top, no matter what level ours might be on, it could not be simulated if there was not a reality to simulate it in.
Dependence on this indelible fundamental in order for our reality to even be nothing but a simulation. It has to be present at all levels and preceding the most base initial reality, shows that whether our reality is simulated inside another reality or not, is of no meaning to its realness and inseparability from base existence. The most base fundamentals which allow for base reality are equally present and fundamental in our reality.
Therefore no reality or simulated reality can exist totally devoid realness. Any simulated reality no matter how fake has to contain and be comprised partly of base, real, fundamental reality.
This reduction, of course, only holds true within the confines of the quality of realness of simulated realities, and if simulated realities can exist within a base reality that are perfectly believable, yet fully synthetic. The reduction answers the questions very nicely: Quality of realness must be preserves throughout all levels of reality in order for any level to be possible. And all simulated within simulated within simulated realities... are always base reality, just different editions of base reality.
Awesome video
I'd laugh so hard until my sides hurt if when we first achieve FTL or something close to it during a trial in the Solar system, an alien ship soon turns up, lands on earth, and out pops a humanoid with pointy ears who says "live long....and prosper".
From what I understand as a layman is that Gravity is NOT a force but the curvature of space created by Energy/mass so why are we trying to strongarm gravity into a quantum force?
I tried to but didnt see it coming
Can gravitational waves be a carrier signal for information?
Why couldn't they?
Two blackholes or other objects merging which we've measured so far over gravitational waves have carried information.
The only engineering we need to do is how we can wiggle very messive celestial objects and how to influence that wiggling to get amplitude or frequency modulation. I suspect frequency modulation would be earlier feasible than amplitude modulation, where the former requires change of wiggle speed (by increasing or decreasing orbits) and where the latter requires changing mass. In the case of two objects orbiting eachother, changing the mass would change the orbit too I guess..
Idk, my question at the start is open and not meant sarcastic. I'm not an astrophysicus, but I have enjoyed university education in electrodynamics and in electromagnetic fields and waved, which are to my understanding somewhat analogues to gravitational dynamics and waves
I thought sub-light speed warp travel did not require negative mass or energy?
Relativity does no say that you create closed timelike curves by going faster than light. A way to employ coordinates to tells you what instantaneous motion is relative to some observer tell you that, and we have 0 theoretical or experimental evidence that this is correct at all. You can easily fix this issue without changing any physics at all. The issue is that we don't have a well defined theory of superluminal motion. If im sitting still and i shoot a tennis ball at infinite speed that bounces off something and comes back to me instantly, then according to my coordinates outside my lightcone, the ball travels along the t=0 axis straight out and straight back, if someone else that is moving relative to me uses their coordinates, that is we perform a lorentz transformation on the coordinates we find that according to them the ball travels as a slow speed into the future or into the past and then comes back with the opposite velocity, to the event the ball was sent from anyway. Worls the same if we start with a finite speed, carrying oit the analysis by first drawing a superluminal trajectory in one fram then changing frames, never leads to any local time travel to the past, ergo no closed timelike curves. Doesn't matter whether you introduce curvature or wormholes or anything like that, if you use a single frame and you limit yourself to sub instantaneous speeds, you never get time travel and that holds after any lorentz boost. Tume travel in relativity comes from an incorrectly application of lorentz transformations, where you secretly allow time travel by allowing velocities greater than infinity for some observer in both directions. This happens wjen you change reference frames and use more than one reference frame at a time to determine what velocity angle in your spacetime diagram is allowed, all you need to do ti disallow time travel is to not put it in at the start, and the way you do that is to say, any trajectory that is allowed can only travel in speeds that corresponds to only forward in time trajectory in some reference frame, if you use that filter for trajectories, you can go wild and do as many silly coordinate transformations as you want in between plotting a course. What this means ofc is thay relativity doesn't how for simultaneity in a complete way if you want superluminal travel to be fully free of closed timelike curves. I should write an elementary paper on this just so people stop being stupid, but it is what it is. There is nothing mysterious here is is simple elementary geometry, and a lack of understanding of coordinate transformations. The theory where you allow all trajectories up to instantaneous for every coordinate choice is just allowing all trajectories forward and backwards in time outside the lightcone, this is just how special relativity works, and how general relativity works at a point. So if you hop around in different frames and carelessly choose superluminal velocities to travel with no concern about the relationship to the other legs of the journey in the previous coordinates you used, then you are simply allowing time travel from the get go, but that is like drawing a closed tumelike curve on a doily and saying it is possible, nothing about special relativity breaks by disallowing certain trajectories outside the lightcone. The simplest way to define it is to say that one frame is special and has the right defining definition of simultaneity, then allowing only the forward go to ng trajectories in that frame, and their transformations in other frames, what you get then is simply that in other frames trajectories go backwards in coordinate time for them, but no closed looped can be produced anyway, and this works fine without doing anything to the principle of relativity inside the lightcones, so it is a perfectly reasonable and consistent extension to superluminal motion of special relativity. I think the way we talk about relativity is kind of silly tbh. I hope we get smarter in the future as a community, this is something a highschooler could work out after learning elementary relativity and coordinate transformation in terms of linear transformations.
Hi there. I agree with your description here completely. I was analyzing causality graphs yesterday and I found that as long as you do not introduce another causality space or "reference frame" into the causality space of the FTL scenario before their interceptions at the origin. You are safe. I was working on a hyperspace information transmission framework to send one-way data to those FTL arrivers from earth. So that they could recieve that data after arrival, but at a time in their destination timeline which would have normally fell within the causality violation zone.
Would you like to hear about the hyperspace transmission architecture? It need not only be used for communications to FTL colonies.
Given the staggering energy requirements for an Alcubierre warp, I don't expect anyone to ever use them, even if their civilization is technically capable. There could be some discovery in the future that reduces the energy requirements dramatically, but at the rate of converting an entire star into energy to get a one-kilometer ship launched, I simply don't see that ever being a worthwhile investment for anyone.
Someone made a formula getting the energy down to about the output of Jupiter. Still huge but much smaller than a star
There are now formulas for positive energy warp drives. So far they’re only near light speed and not over but still
What would a small scale detector look like? One that could only look at a small patch of sky?
White Alcubierre Rapid Propulsion drive. Like it's meant to be.
Hey buddy can you do a video on FTL communication??
Although it clearly doesn't work and isn't feasable, the Alcubierre warp is at least a starting point. Experts are looking at how to redesign, rework or retink parts of the theory and who knows, maybe one day we will be able to go faster than light.
Imagine what the human race would be like with unlimited travel and unlimited resources!
She mentioned the "Casimir effect" its also one of the ways to prove zero point energy does exist, and can be harnessed. 100% fact...it exist in A unacknowledged special access program, in A few government contractors here in the United States.
Pretty sure lockheed has this tech already. Salvatore paise holds some special access patents for the navy. The energy required is drawn from the aether...like tesla did.
Hey so negative energy is equivalent to negative mass and either one would result in closed timelike occurs which are forbidden in physics. It would involve time travel and another reason for time travel not being possible is because of quantum effects. Imagine you go back in time and the atoms that are in your body or whatever piece of matter is now going to be in two locations at once and it does not matter whether they're within yards of each other or thousands of miles of each other, the atoms cannot possibly be in multiple locations at once. The quantum effect itself would prevent time travel but the fact that you'd have a closed timelike loop at all makes time travel impossible which means negative energy and negative Mass are impossible
Somewhat reminds me of star trek. Can't remember clearly about the first warp drive their and if others could see that test run 🤔
The vulcans detected human test run
Where would we go?
Everywhere! Imagine the panoramic vistas! Imagine virtually endless resource we wouldn't have to mine from the (ecologically speaking) fragile earth! Imagine apocalyptic catastrophe not being able to extinguish all known life in the galaxy. For all of earth's life history we have all our eggs in one basket that is the very thin layer between the lithosphere and the stratosphere a complex basket of biological systems which is now somewhat unraveling by our own doing, or could be annihilated with one small planetoid on intercept trajectory. For humanity's sake and for nature's sake, we need to go up!
Not that I expect we'll ever get FTL to intact go everywhere, but sub-FTL we could get pretty far, but not for a while that far interstellar I'm afraid
You can get negative energy by extracting it from black holes.
so an event that left the area would just redshift from existence but and event that arrived would look like a radiation blast with some kind of after image that would (if not a photon) retreat back to it's origin that's blue shifted in a ratio of its speed in multiples of C. you would think anything faster than C is traveling in a dimension above ours. at least that is what first comes to mind thinking very quickly about it.
Is there time/space no wake zones
You are not creating a closed time light curve or inverse light cone with an Alcubierre warp drive, because the bubble of spacetime you are inhabiting and are moving through space at superluminal speeds in is operating under the same relativistic conditions as spacetime at its "rest" state.
Yes, within the bounds of that closed system you are not violating or folding back onto yourself. But within the system of the universe you would arrive at your destination before the relative cosmological moment of your departure. If It ever became possible, then the astronaughts would keep doing this until they arrived close to the big bang. They would place particles or systems there that would in their present homeworld time be akin to streams of unlimited energy beaming straight into their solar system. The fact that we do not see these sources, and that the entire galaxy is not already populated with civilizations which went back in time to populate the universe with Alcubierre ships, is proof that it will never be FTL.
Can you host kevin knuth on that topic?
Is anyone building a gravitational wave projector?
I built one at ETH Zurich for my PhD thesis.
I built one
No.
To detect something you need to know what signals it emits.
To know what signals something emits you need to know the principles by which it operates.
We do not know any principles by which anything can travel faster than light.
So, by definition, we cannot detect it and know what we are detecting.
Say I don't know the principles by which my microwave works, I can still detect its emissions.
@@kirkwagner461 I definitely think we could detect it, but it would be similar to Dark Energy, detectable, but unknown or easily missed/mistaken for something else
Thank you kirk, that's almost word for word what I said.
Yes that's right. Before anyone realised there was a moon in the sky humanity had to discover the calculus. Before the 17th century it was easier to navigate by sea because the oceans had no waves.
Yes. UAPs do it all the time, thats how we get here, they use zero point energy.
yes sir you can stich to point of spactime and jump to one point from another. So you can travel even in 1000 C in one second.
c IS a rate of displacement per seconds Sir. So you can not travel 1000 c in one second. You can travel at 1000 c for 1 second, which would displace 1000 lightyears.
@@THEmomentumJUNK1E no sir it is not like that
@@jackwhitestripe7342 c = 300 million meters per second, or 300 thousand kilometers per second, or 83 thousand kilometers per hour. You can not travel 1000c in one second, because 1000c in one second is represented as 1000x299000m/s/s. Thus the answer is 299000000m. This is a distance. Oh wait, so you mean travel 1000c FOR ok second? So that would be 300 million kilometers?
@@jackwhitestripe7342 You're notation is slightly off though. Saying 1000c in one second is incorrect way to refer to distance. The correct reference is 1000X300km = 300000km
listening to any human weigh in on concepts that are far boyond our understanding is always amusing. This is possible or that is impossible, but everything we have is inference, theory and experimental evidence for around 4% of the universe.
The two will never merge from our POV.
Has the opossum gone on vacation? Did they take the Le Baron?
He’s busy working on a special project
Tom Green has the LeBaron
Soo ... We cant detect such spaceships right now but we could very soon? I wonder if they would finally catch an interest in us if we can go "hey please answer we can see your spaceships going past the speed limit"
Anyone read about the high energy bursts we've detected? Not frbs. The other ones
Gamma?
@@EventHorizonShow not gammas either! I think it was blue shifted? And maybe detected by icecube or Antares? I wish I bookmarked it
I remember looking up the energy that would be required to produce them and it would be something on the verge of type 2 kardashev!
I think you'd be hard pressed to find a more gracious host than JMG.
