      @@ominousscreech4054 Based on "I'm happy with traveling [0.3c]", that sounds like The Exoplanets Channel is riding on the spacecraft, which appears to rule out a laser-boosted solar sail-unless, I suppose, the laser is still focused enough to use for braking as the craft nears its destination? But also I don't see a way to deflect the laser to brake in the direction the laser is already pointing. If you can't brake before your destination, at those speeds you're basically left with lithobraking, because atmospheres are too thin.
      Ionic propulsion seems too slow as well, but on a long trip, it's a lot faster than coasting the majority of the trip.
      But there's also the nuclear option, which involves heavy shielding, and riding the blast from a series of nuclear explosions. I don't know if you get better "fuel economy" using shaped charges. Seems like a bumpy ride, though.

      The Exoplanets Channel try using electromagnetic gravitics... in order to go “faster” than light you must dematerialise from 3D... then “fall” in another position in time and space... 🛸 👈these are called flux liners btw. They aren’t unidentified and they don’t fly.. your consciousness is a singularity, which means everyone is literally the same person... welcome to the matrix.

    Another great episode Kyle! Question: if they can slow down light to almost 0 m/s, then that should mean quantum movement is slowed down proportionately. Does this mean, within the localized area, you have stopped the perception of "time" relative to the matter around it? Is that not a form of time travel for those inside the localized area compared to the exterior world?
    That's quite a "Time Warp" Kyle. Your "Temporal Mastery" is overwhelmingly evil. Its time to "Time Walk" yourself out of here. You know its just a game ... right ... right? Its not supposed to be a real thing.

      @@TH3F4LC0Nx Well yes and no. Black holes expel some material that they are attempting to suck in due to the strange way they way space-time and their magnetic fields. So in that sense, yes, that material is superheated and expelled at a not-insignificant fraction of the speed of light, while also producing x-rays from the energy imparted on it.
      But there's another reason why black holes have temperature, and that is Hawking radiation. Over a long, long, unfathomably long period of time, black holes radiate their mass outward, particles and energy escaping the event horizon through strange quirks of how quantum fields work. It's usually explained as virtual anti-particle/particle pairs appearing on the edge of the event horizon, such that one of the pair falls in, and the other is sort of... made to exist, flying away from the black hole and taking a tiny, *tiny* fraction of it's mass and energy with it. In that sense, black holes have *heat* as energy radiates away from them.

    Here's a counter-proposal based on Relativity:
    If you're in a spaceship, going 99.9999% the speed of light, but not using all of your futury, science-fictiony engines, and then you turn on the rest of the engines, consuming enough fuel and/or energy to propel you to approximately 1.3 times the speed of light, or 130%, What would happen? You CANNOT. GO. FASTER. Than light, and because of time dilation, we know that the universe... bends... the rules of physical continuity instead, such as the consistent speed of time, to make light move at the same speed for all observers. However, Not going faster than lightspeed Is coming up against a different unbreakable law, the thermodynamic law of conservation of matter and energy.
    So what happens? My guess would be that you, from your perspective, get from point A to B faster than you should have been able to, reality warping around you to accommodate 2 universal cobstants, but you expend more than the amount of fuel/energy required to get from A. To B. If you were going at 99% of lightspeed, and according to all other outside observers, such as people at Point A and Point B, you still took the same amount of time to get from point A to Point B, and no universal laws were broken.

    • @shawnrhode
